Rampage toys have hit the Upstate of SC, spotted them at Walmart last night. I did not realize just how BIG the "mid sized" boxes are. Ralph and especially Lizzie are huge. Very cool products.

Hey guys, new to the boards. Just picked up the small George w/ The Rock set from my local Walmart for around 10 bucks. Not bad, though in hindsight I think I should have grabbed the Lizzie set. The Rock figure has a nice face sculpt, but I don't quite get why they decided it was best to put a civilian like shirt torso piece with the arms and legs from the new Impact figure. Kinda strange. Plus, the only piece of his gear that awkwardly fits into the leg holster is the binoculars. I saw some complaints that the leg joints were loose on this figure, but mine are fine. I do like how the rifle fits into the backpack though. A different touch. Also, anyone know if the canister piece is supposed to open up? I can see that it is two halves put together, but I cannot get mine to open.

Right now looking to pick up the 3 midsized sets, I think that is the best size of the monsters right now, since I have Kong for the big ape mold. Also looking at the small George set to get The Rock, although the Big George set has the better color scheme.

True to word, I picked up Big City Brawl George, Ralph, and Lizzie today. I passed on the small George set because Rock's eye's were painted a little too sloppily. But I am still going to keep my eyes out for him.

As far as the Rock figure is concerned, Lanard is known for repurposing parts. In the movie trailer, the Rock wears a brown leather jacket. The recolored Impact arms and legs were the closest thing they could get without making a whole new sculpt for them. Interestingly enough, the crotch piece is a new sculpt.

Picked up the Canister Contact Lizzie set today. My interest in the set was less about Lizzie and more about what came with her. I do like the Lizzie figure. I like the color scheme used on the repainted Sparks figure that is part of the set. I like the design of the included weapons but I'm not sure about the color or the red tips.

jknox33 I thought the crotch was Shrapnels? You would think so, but they are different. The front crotch piece is bigger since he Rock torso is a bigger buck. The "butt" piece is completely different even from Impact's. They had a budget for a head sculpt, a torso and crotch piece.

After watching the Rampage trailer, I think I like this new custom as my Joe Manganiello figure from the movie.

I took a Trickshot body and put a modified and painted WWE Rumbler Seamus head on it. I had to create a neck for the head to make it fit. I'll repaint the torso black or even a charcoal color and maybe the sleeves black. I'll post him when he's finished.

I also picked up the small Lizzie set and I also think it is a good set for the money. The grips on the weapons are a bit large and bulge out the hands of any of the Corps! figs you have hold them, and the orange "safety-tips" kinda weird me out, but I do like the gator, and I am having some nostalgia for the boat that was included. Remember playing with one of those as a kid. the recolored Sparks figure is nice too. 'Hound
