Ivan Drago [Now with PDF!]

[Deleted]

Yep. Ivan Drago. I was watching the Rocky movies again recently and remembered the Jakks line of figures from 2006 and how badly I wanted that Drago figure so I could have him do three matches with Hogan and well...I never got that figure. But hey, we've got Hogan bootlegs for LOW. We've got cage match rules and I'm pretty sure Flag Match rules too, so all I'm missing is the big Russian. First, I took some creative license with this card. He can't be all punches plus he was in the Russian military where Sambo is pretty much a way of life. So I added in a couple of sambo submission holds and a bodyslam and here's what I came up with. He's really strong but his chart ratings are brutal so he can be brought down by the traditional "pro wrestling" elements.

This is amazing Switch...two thumbs up!

Thanks. I contemplated also doing cards for Rocky, Apollo, Clubber and Tommy Gunn but stopped short of doing so. I really just wanted Drago so I could finally have the three match series with Hogan that I wanted to have with the figures back in 06/07.

The only other one that might be interesting to have is Clubber Lang...we have enough heroes to pit them against already.

And the main post has a PDF done by Mark T with some pretty stellar art by Mark T. Feel free to download and let me know how he does against your top babyfaces!

This is really well done! I love the art and stats are believable and accurate in my opinion! I just might have to give him a try out in my Clone World Territory in the Z. He just might "break" some record with that Final Punch!
