Not seen this mentioned on here but looks pretty cool.

I don't know whether to take this as a joke, or serious. Just the game we were waiting for, to go in and kill a bunch of redneck cops who start up abusing an ex soldier.

In the book, he dies at the end, do we get bonus points for a Trautman with a sniper rifle?

The real game would have been to base the game off of the Cartoon, and all of those crazy comic book slanted villains and allies he had in there. Peacenik Rambo from the cartoons was always saving puppies and kittens and all of that other left leaning stuff he did as a "Soldier for Peace" in a violent world."

Not seeing RAMBO, Part 5 or 6, where he went to Thiland and killed all sorts of drug dealers and saved the poor hippy kids, and mercenaries...

Wow.. I didn't know that a ) there was a book that the film was based on or b ) a cartoon!

But still I liked the first couple of movies, in between this and Highlander looks like a couple of fun boardgames. I wonder what other 80's properties are ripe for a boardgame release?

Chuck Norris movies with models in Kickstarter Roundouse kick action pose.
I come in peace board game with cool vials of brain enzymes made from druggies .
Roddy Roddy Piper with Kickstarter exclusive bubblegum , the game gets good when you run out of bubblegum.

Cartoon wise:
Thunder cats
Mask
Bravestar
Silver hawks
And my favorite - Galaxy Rangers (I want some cyber horses)

We’d all kill for GIJoe with multiples figs, but CMON Joes would would be awesome.
