NECA has posted some more images and information for their upcoming 7" Rocky figures which are due to hit shelves in February 2012.
These figures have an extensive amount of articulation points, expanding upon our recent articulation work on the Gears of War 3 Action Figures. The hips are are ball and swivel and move pretty well even with the sculpted shorts. We have articulation points from head to toes (seriously, toes!).
Battle-Damaged Versions Too!
Yes, both Balboa and Creed will have battle-damaged figures as well as the pre-fight variants!
Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at Rocky IV
A legacy spanning 35 years and 6 films, generations of fans have been waiting for movie accurate action figures of the Italian Stallion and his famous opponents, and in 2012 NECA delivers. Based on the original 1976 film, Series 1 includes Rocky Balboa and Apollo Creed from their historic fist fight. Rocky and Apollo come in both clean and fight damage versions featuring different head sculpts and unique decoration. Figures stand 6 3/4” – 7” tall and are fully poseable with over 25 points of articulation and are highly detailed.
