    Italian Stallion vs The Southside Slugger

    One Mego line I'd have killed for as a kid was Rocky. As a die-hard boxing fan, Rocky movies were the main reason I made my mego's box each other as a child. After seeing Rachel post a Clubber custom on FB, I said "I have to do that!"

    The heads are from the 1983 he-man style Rocky figures. The bodies are new Mego neck style which accommodate the heads fairly well. Special thanks to Rob T here.

    The trunks are commissioned from Rachel and Rocky's robe is from Jakks Rocky line (fits perfect). Chad provided the "Rocky" decal on his trunks. A real team effort and couldn't be happier with the end result.

    Thanks for looking.

      Very clever idea on these, and those heads really work well on the new Mego bodies, love the outfits too,
      nicely done.

        You beat me to the punch! Those do look really good. I am trying something a little different with the body, but hoping they look half as good as yours. You should keep going with these, but stop before you get to Tommy Morrison:-)

          Ha, thanks. I'm on the hunt for the Apollo to this collection right now, for the right price. Not sure what head I could use for a Drago but I'd use a Zica body for him for the size.

            Looks great!

            As Rocky says, "If I can change (to a Mego body), and you can change (to a Mego body), everybody can change!"

              These are fantastic. I love the franchise and it would definitely be the no.1 license Mego could acquire, but I'm guessing likeness rights are obscene. With a little putty work I think Boss Hogg could be a good Pauley base.
              I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

              If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.
