I own the "Rocky sculpt" (pic to the left only) seen in the link below... does anyone know what it would be worth today?
I'll post a color pic of it soon. http://www.yojoe.com/archive/unprodu...kybalboa.shtml |

How many of those exist, or is that the only one? Either way I'm sure it would fetch a pretty penny.

The only one as far as I know.. got it from the designer who sculpted him for good ol Hasbro several years back.
It's the holy grail in my joe collection.... just curious what he would go for... probably should have it appraised! |

Wow! I am impressed. I think you could score some hundreds on ebay for it but I would just keep it. Its worth more to you that way.

Yeah it is.. I even kept the box it was sent in from the Hasbro designer... a pretty cool conversation piece. I was told that it was sculpted before they made the actual prototype (that was never released as we know)...they called this a "1-UP" I believe.

You should cast it and make your own Rocky figures, just kidding. Nice piece though!

What you should do is make a mold of that head and sell the molds so we can make truly accurate Rocky and Rambo customs....since it's my idea can I have the first two, LOL.
No I would keep it, it's a cool thing to have for sure.......but if you wanna make a mold of it......I support you in your decision, LOL. *****Flow you beat me to posting!!!!!***** |

I'd suggest getting in touch with Nomad over at JoeDeClassified.com . He runs with a group of guys who deal in rare protos/artwork/packaging and can probably give you the most accurate idea of it's value. Personally, as a one of a kind piece I would never let it go.
It's funny that you have this, as I worked for a snail mail dealer back before the internet who had the magazine that those pics cames from. Long story short, I left, and searched for those pics for almost 12 years before I found them again....everyone I talked to thought I was full of crap until I rounded up a moldy (literallty) water damaged copy of it. |
