Found this set at KB today, so I took some loose pics for you guys... Just some loose notes... - Jakks gave Rocky the ripped heavyweight torso on this figure that they use for guys like Batista, Chris Masters, etc. on their wrestling figure line. Smart move to pay attention to detail because Stallone was much more ripped in the later Rocky films than he was in Rocky 1. - None of the accessories are new. The stool has been around since the BCA/ TTL days of Jakks' WWE line and Rocky's towel is the EXACT same as the one they've been using since the BCA Val Venis figure. It even has the clips on it where you can connect it around his waist (not that you'd want to). - Balboa's robe stays on well. Basically, it has a piece of velcro to hold it together and then you can tie the belt of the robe together, as well. Very similar to the CS 2 Ric Flair robe, for anyone that owns the figure. - Paulie and Apollo both consist of parts that Jakks has used in their WWE line in the past, so no new Rocky molds in this set. Any other questions, feel free to ask. They also had the new Rocky title belt, as well as both versions of the new Rocky rings. The Real Scale Rocky Ring looks really good in person, but I didn't get it since I already have the WWE Real Scale Ring WM 2 Cage match.

Wow. Those are good shots. Anyway, I don't have the figs myself, but they look really cool. I would love to pick up a couple when I get some money.

I got one of these the other day. It's a great set.
If Jakks expects to sell their rings, they really need to make sure that stores keep getting the figures in stock. No one is going to buy a Rocky ring when the only figures in the stores are 5 Micks and 2 Adrians. Also, I can see the life-sized belts being on clearance for 3 bucks 6 months down the road. Doesn't look like any of the stores around me have sold even one of them.

I don't plan on buying the rings until they at least orange tag them.

I picked it up today. Nice set, other than the fact that my Paulie has a loose ankle peg sticking out.

For the last time... the ring in the original Rocky film had three ropes. Jakks got it right. Stop bitching about a non issue.

I find it weird how Jakks won't paint the Adidas 3-stripes on Reys shoes, but the do in the Rocky series boots. Odd.

I am sure it is Version 2, mainly because Version 1 was a p.o.s.
