Is the figure available exclusively from The Stallone Shop?

$260 USD. The site still indicates "pre-order" status.

I am not aware of anyone else selling the figure. It makes sense to assume it is a The Stallone Shop exclussive.
As far as i am aware, the figure should start shipping towards the end of November 2022

This figure has started to ship..
I guess the YouTube videos will start to appear soon.
Justin's Collection and Dean Knight 333 reviewed the figure some time ago, but they doubt received early high end samples. The real proof of how the figure turned out will be in the reviews due soon. Assuming reviews show up, which i think they will.

I like to think the figure has turned out well. If it does meet expectations, then i'm up for the Cobra figure.

John James Rambo 1/6 scale figure by Sly Stallone Shop

The figure arrived today
For whatever reason, i have been looking forward to getting this figure in probably more so than any other figure i received during 2022. The slow shipping method caused the figure to arrive in 2023 even although the figure shipped at the beginning of December 2022

I took these photo's tonight. In the future the plan is to shoot some outside daylight pic's.

First impressions, the figure does not disappoint. I'd say the portrait has been painted to the same level as a Hot Toys portrait.
The green jacket, red t-shirt, blue Demin jeans all look great. The arm-dog-tags are made of metal.
John's sleeping bag looks suitable weathered.
The only weapon John ships with is his Rambo knife.
8 hands in total are included, which allows for various possibilities.

The base, i like the base. The base has weight to it, and the tarmac road finish and metal drain lid work well.

The box looks great. It is by no means Hot Toys level. It reminds me more of a type of quality a Sideshow Collectibles 1/6th figure ships in, all be it wider.

All in all i am a very happy collector. I will be placing a pre_order for the Sly Stallone Shop next offering, which is Cobra

If i wanted to b hyper picky and mention some negatives they might include:

Elbows appear to be single jointed. Which means the pose holding the sleeping bag (as pictured) is not possible.

John's ankles do not feel super tight. Given the figure is quite weighty, i though they would have include tighter ankle joints. Posing John without the base support is probably not a good idea.

John's brown leather boots. On the plus side, they feature real laces. Boot left and right boots look identical, and lack a left and right look to them, making them look neither left or right fit. I am probably sounding too picky here.

It looks pretty good, glad you are happy with it.

It's understandable to want safer posing abilities. If you feel aventurous, you could try swapping the figure onto a body with better articulation. I understand that's not always easy to do, but it can sometimes be worth it for better posing.

He looks great!
