edition<\/strong>, <strong>Rambo statue<\/strong> from the good folks at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hollywood-collectibles.com\/rambo_statue.html\"><strong>Hollywood Collectibles<\/strong><\/a>.\u00a0 The statue was placed inside a molded styrofoam shell which was then put in a well designed packaging box which was then placed in a larger shipping box filled with packing nuts.\u00a0 If you think I&#8217;m making too big a deal about how pleased I was with the secure packaging, then you don&#8217;t know my delivery guy.<\/p>\n<p>The statue, about 12 inches tall, is itself is a thing of beauty.\u00a0 Sculpter,\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/stallonezone.com\/wordpress\/?p=580\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Edinho Maga<\/strong><\/a> shows <strong>Rambo<\/strong> standing triumphant.\u00a0

well.<\/p>\n<p>Before I bring this post to a close I want to especially thank <strong>Mark<\/strong> from <strong>Hollywood Collectibles<\/strong>.\u00a0 <strong>Mark<\/strong> contacted me once I had posted photos of <strong>Edinho&#8217;s work<\/strong> on the<strong> StalloneZone<\/strong>.\u00a0 <strong>Mark<\/strong> was impressed.\u00a0 I put the two into contact with each other and the rest, as they say, is history.\u00a0 Throughout the whole process <strong>Mark<\/strong> kept me informed on the statue&#8217;s progress.\u00a0 It was also <strong>Mark<\/strong> who made it possible for <strong>SZoners<\/strong> to get a discount if they ordered a statue.\u00a0 <strong>Mark <\/strong>and <strong>Hollywood Collectibles<\/strong> have been great to deal with.\u00a0 I hope that future <strong>Stallone<\/strong> projects are given the same treatment.\u00a0 I could say more, but it&#8217;s time to go clear off a place on the mantle for my<strong> Rambo<\/strong> statue.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I received my limited edition, Rambo statue from the good folks at Hollywood Collectibles.\u00a0 The statue was placed inside a
