Hiya Toys' next release in their new Exquisite Super line of figures from the Rocky & Creed series of movies is the Rocky II figure of Rocky in street clothes, along with his dog, Butkus.



Rocky will feature tailored clothing including trousers, t-shirt, and zipped jacket. It looks like the hat is sculpted as part of the first head option, while a second head offers an alternative expression with no hat. You also get a series of extra hands.



Butkus is also articulated and is wearing his personalised football jersey and also comes with a rope lead. You also get the display stand and peg as featured in most of the Exquisite Super releases.


The set is a general release globally and is scheduled to arrive in Q1 (Jan-March) of 2027.



From Rocky II (1979), now Rocky joins Hiya Toys EXQUISITE SUPER Series as 1/12 scale action figure.


It's the rematch of the century as Rocky takes on Apollo Creed in this powerful follow-up to one of the most acclaimed movies in film history. After club fighter Rocky Balboa goes the distance with the world heavyweight champion, boxing fans clamor for a rematch. But Rocky, having sustained massive injuries in the bout, announces his retirement. Though he tries to make a new life, Rocky realizes he can't escape his true calling and must prepare for the fight of his life!


Standing approximately 16CM tall, this EXQUISITE SUPER Series 1/12 scale figure faithfully recreates Rocky's iconic street look from the film. A black cap, dark jacket, and casual trousers perfectly recreate his everyday on-screen attire, while head sculpts masterfully capture the smile and seriousness on his face, enhancing the character’s depth and realism. Beneath this understated appearance, his fighting spirit and boxer's instinct remain ever-present.

About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
