. . .the Rocky Balboa GI Joe action figure?
YOJOE.COM | Sculpt: Rocky Balboa YOJOE.COM | Rocky Packaging Art For those of you too young to remember, Rocky Balboa (Yes, THAT one) was almost a member of GI Joe. Here's the wiki entry... "Hasbro intended to license Rocky and make him a member of the G.I. Joe toyline, as they had with wrestler Sgt. Slaughter. A toy prototype was produced.[6] Marvel Comics' G.I. Joe: Order of Battle profile book came out during the negotiations and included Rocky as a current Joe member, specializing in hand-to-hand combat training and an example of what it means to persevere under seemingly impossible odds. As the negotiations then collapsed, due to Stallone licensing Rambo to another company, Marvel had to run a retraction in the third issue of the limited-run series indicating that the character was never a part of G.I. Joe."

Would I have bought him back then? No. Would I buy him now? Yes. Big Boa does need someone to spar with, doesn't he? It would only make sense to have a boxer to bang around.

I would have bought him then, and I would buy him now.
There is no such thing as to many team members in GI Joe, the more their are the better I like it. I dont care how obscure some of the characters seem to be. Sometimes the best figures are the ones that make you say hhhmmmmm. |
