Toy Story: Rocky Gibraltar Movie Collectible Figure

In 2009, Mattel released a neat Toys R Us exclusive line of premium Toy Story "Movie Collectible" action figures. This was a very cool assortment of articulated figures featuring a unique selection of characters housed in "display worthy" collector packaging. For whatever reason though, I never picked them up back in the day and now I'm stuck trying to track them down on eBay (at least the select few that really interest me). Why do I do that!? :P

In addition to this fantastic Rocky Gibraltar figure, the line also included Woody, Buzz Lightyear, "Bug Face" Buzz Lightyear, "Cereal Dunk" Woody, Hamm, Bo Peep and Jingle Joe.

Rocky is a character that has gotten very little merchandise made of him over the years (in fact, there has yet to be a full scale movie accurate version), so this was one of the first in the line that I was interested in tracking down. I was able to snag it on eBay recently for around $25.

He is about 3.5" tall and has articulation in his neck (head can spin all the way around), arms (ball jointed shoulders), elbows, legs and ankles (basically everywhere but the wrists and waist). The detail in the sculpt is spot on and the paint application is really great.

Below I included a pic of Rocky next to my standard movie sized [Toy Story Collection] Buzz Lightyear, so you can have a better sense of his small scale. I'm still holding out for a movie sized Rocky toy one day. It has to happen eventually right? At this point I've waited 21 years, so I'll just keep on hoping
