My colleague Greg Williams saw something funny in the toy store the other day:
Jeff,
I saw this action figure in K-B Toys this weekend. It’s part of a series of collectible “figures” for all of the “Rocky” movies – including the one that’s coming out soon.
What kid wouldn’t love to find this under the tree on Christmas morning? It’s the perfect plaything.
Greg
