Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger as the Contra guys
You’ve probably heard the story, right? How basically Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone were used as “influences” when designing the cover and character art for the main heroes of Contra.
Well someone has taken that story to the next level by taking Arnold and Sylvester figures and customizing them into Bill “Mad Dog” Rizer, and Lance “Scorpion” Bean. The figures come in at 7″, are hand painted, feature weathering effects, and have a removable bandolier and flak vest.
There’s even custom weapons! The spread gun, machine gun, and laser from Contra are part of the set.
The current bid as of this writing is at $41, and there’s three days left to go before the auction ends.
