He looks decent enough and he's good for customs, too. I gave him a 7. Two people gave him a 1? Some anti-Duke sentiment going on there as this figure is definitely a 3 at the absolute worst.

Honestly, the Resolute idea for me is even better then the 25th though, because of the modernizing/updating, like someone said, dragging the designs out of Vietnam and into the 21st century. (Don't get me wrong, i dig the recreations too!!! but i love the modern, realistic take on Duke here and hope the other Resolute figures live up to it.)

I kind of fall in that category (I only buy ARAH updates from '82-'91), but I also won't lie to myself and vote a 1 on a figure that I know in my heart doesn't deserve that low of a score. I won't buy Resolute Duke, but I still appreciate the figure and gave him a decent 7. For the most part in a poll such as this 75% of 10's are honest and only about 33% of 1's....the rest are skew votes (people who are bias and will give it a 10 just to boost the rating or people who hate it and will give it a 1 just to lower the score).

I agree that this is a great Duke. I love the new design and I think the figure construction itself is a step above what has come before. Hasbro is really starting to hit their stride with this line. I actually think the headsculpt looks like the actor playing Duke in the movie. I wouldn't be surprised to see this head pop again in the movie line.

I love the torso, vest, and arms but I HATE the legs and feet. Especially the leg warmers and shoes. They ruin the figure IMO. I plan on picking him up and using his midsection for a custom and trading off the legs.
Still indifferent to the head sculpt. I do like it a little better than the original head though.

is it just me or the resolute line has a ghost in the shell feel to it. Duke kinda reminds me of Batou a little. i can't handle duke repaints, or even the original duke, but this one kicks ass.
i just ignore a figure rating if i think it's below a 3. And if i stop rating figures, then.... houston we have a problem. Last edited by jeff117; 12-09-2008 at 05:06 PM.. |

Got mine last week as well, and is by far one of my favorite guys now. This sculpt is awesome.

I think that head sculpt alone makes that figure worth it.
