Day 39 - Bench-Press (Rise of Cobra) (10/21/25)

Apparently the movie version of Rock N Roll? Continuing our week of Rise of Cobra figures, this is actually who I thought I was posting when I did Big Brawler. Nothing against all three of the Big Brawler fans!

I legit think Bench Press is *awesome* and I totally want him. Big jacked guy with a chainsaw?? Hell yeah.

Totally forgot about Bench=Press. I would definitely pick him up but not really looking for him to get made anytime soon.

Bench-Press should really be considered. Interesting look.

I liked the original figure. Not sure I need it in Classified.

He needs Lenny to give him a Joe Job. As is, he is a little plain. Not standout plain, like Outback in a white t-shirt that says SURVIVE on it. It's a boring plain, like the school principle wearing a school logo t-shirt over his button-up and tie kinda plain. All he really needs is one stand out feature, like throw a uniform shirt on him but have it in a different camo than most joes, or something a bit more "ARAH" like wearing chucks and a ballcap.

More infantry specialists for the Joes, sure.

Should totally come with weights to build out the gym Boa and Sarge started.

If it were up to me, I'd keep the floppy hat, but maybe have his pants and hat in the grey camo a lot of the movie figures had as kinda a tribute to his 'roots'.
