After a long delay, the Rocky and Mickey Puppet Maquettes, based on a classic Brisk Iced Tea Commercial, are now available from NECA. Back in 1990, Brisk Iced Tea ran a commercial featuring stylized puppet versions of Rocky Balboa and his trainer Mickey. We originally saw these maquettes back during Toy Fair 2017. Fans can finally own these items, which should be shipping to retailers next week, and available at most online stores in very early July. Fans looking to pick them up now can grab them directly from the NECA Ebay Store and the NECA Amazon Store.

The phenomenally successful Rocky saga is a part of American pop culture, with its inspiring tale of a small-time boxer determined to prove his worth to the world.
These limited edition maquettes (statues) are based on a famous stopmotion commercial from the late 1990s that starred Rocky and his trainer Mickey in puppet form. Even in stylized form, those two had selling power!
Working from the actual puppets used to make the commercial, we’ve reproduced Rocky and Mickey as extra-detailed maquettes. Rocky stands approximately 12” tall and has fabric boxing shorts. Mickey stands approximately 10” tall and features fabric hat and clothing. Both statues are in accurate scale to each other and have movable eyes that can be positioned in various directions. Comes with two display bases.

that's the stuff of nightmares right there.
Well, that's my creepy and random quotient for this week.
Neat but can we get a Mick for the 7 inch line instead?
Yikes!
*changes for a fresh pair of pants*
I don't understand how there can be a demand for these...
looks like that old britcom "spitting image."
except on a trunk load of mescaline.

These guys are tame compared to the Spitting Image puppets.
