Sgt rock!!!

He's got everything a military man needs.  Everything.

Really.  He's not missing anything.  Anything at all.

 

 

Hey, WB, can I get an action figure of an American soldier with historically accurate gear?

"No, you can't.  Kids buy these figures too."

Well, can I get a demonic, blood stained vampire Nightwing with bloody heart accessory?

"Sure, no problem".

I mean, he does look good and I’ll probably get him. I’ll find some guns for him somewhere. But it’s getting silly at this point.

True I mean a simple pistol or maybe a semi color rifle wouldn’t hurt. Man some people are feeling lucky right now they have the weapons packs McFarlane made to use for rock.

You'd think it would be hard to fuck up Sgt. Rock, but there you go.

I'll definitely be buying this Sgt. Rock. I've needed to retire and replace my old DC Direct version from the last 2002 forever!

Yeah, MSG Rock, his actual rank is MSG. I looked on Google and didn't see an image like the figure looks. Whoever said there were 12 inch Joes, was right.

So, I broke down and bought the JLA John Stewart Green Lantern on Amazon a couple of days ago to get the legs for Plastic Man since those were the only parts that I was still missing. I received that order yesterday and it was the Platinum, which wasn't the one that I wanted, but I said fine - I can probably sell it for more on ebay and ordered another one to be delivered today. It arrived and also Platinum. Go figure. I think that I'll try to sell one of them on ebay to see if it goes for enough to be worthwhile before I try to order another one again. I just thought that it was crazy that I got Platinums of the same figure on back to back days from Amazon. If I had been wanting a Platinum version I never would have gotten it. LOL

I just ordered a Riddler on amazon wanting the standard with all the question marks and I got the platinum with one question mark.  Now it appears they have no more Riddlers in stock.  Ugh.

If you're sitting on extra PM legs, I'm interested.

Not really jazzed about the question marks on the Jim Carrey Riddler stopping at the sides of the costume.  Makes it look printed like a paper doll outfit.  Even just a few question marks would break the the blank green on the sides.  And I'm sure this figure is getting a glow in the dark variant looking as it does.

Wow that Sarge Rock looks spectacular. I have enough guns that I don't really care if he comes with any or not.

The gun thing is weird but expected. I could even overlook the Bane kneepads. Nobody on the design team knowing his shirt and pants are supposed to match is what's annoying as hell. Unless that's the inflated price platinum edition.

As usual, I’m disappointed with the execution of a lot of the reveals. However, did recently pick up gitd Parallax, JLA Aquaman, and red Azrael. All are pretty great.

I thought the same thing, but then no one else remarked on it and I forgot to look up reference photos to confirm. The lack of printing on the underside of his arms, knees and sides is terrible, and the shade of green doesn't feel right. Also, I feel like he needs visible lower teeth.

I'm very underwhelmed by Riddler and Two-Face, especially after how great the B&R wave turned out. If I pick the villains up at all, it will be loose.

SGT Rock, the majority of the time his pants were uncuffed and he didn't have a full beard growing that was Wildman. It was at the most maybe a few days unshaven. He most definitely didn't wear an off color uniform. I mean the sculptor all he had to was do a Google search. It's possible the design manager for McFarlane is trolling again and this could be another Azreal Blue/Red armor issue and the same color uniform for SGT Rock is the actual chase. Also if that is a radio on his back and not so sort of weapon, that's interesting for I haven't see one image of SGT Rock carrying the radio and normally you won't for that is the responsibility of the radioman.
