Of the seven (!) versions of SE we have had/will have in the 25th A through 08, five of them have the same head. Lame.
• *25th box • v2 • *v3 all black • *ripped prom dress SE comic pack • *TrU green pants goin' comando SE • v4 le vie en silver 89 SE • *v5 Arctic parka SE with bunny skulls around his neck And somehow I still voted for Duke. |

I Don't mind the Duke figures as much as the Snake Eyes. I guess it is because I have yet to find a branch of the US military that has ninjas.

Here's the thing: I like new versions of known characters. It's cool to have several different costumes for Snake Eyes. Storm Shadow is a little harder to take. Sure they're "technically" different versions of the figure, but really it's just repaints of the same suit and I've reached my limit.
Now Duke is another story. In my original collection I had one Duke and that's all I ever needed. Now I have the 5-pack version, the carded version from W4 simply because he came with a backpack, the comic colored version, the TRU 3-pack version, and now one with a flag. The problem is that they're all the exact same figure with a slightly different paint scheme. What the hell am I supposed to do with so many of the same Duke? Any suggestions would be great.

i'm sick of the ninja fig...they lierally only repaint him, no new parts at all...it was a tough call though...SE and Duke were neck and neck, but i had to think, at least they have something different about them...i.e. a parka, a flag, jetpack, wolf...

I voted for Duke. But you know I'm tired of most of them. Duke has the same head and body. Only the comic pack with Red Star has a different body and it's the "Grunt" body. Lame.
I do think they rolled out too many faceless blue Cobra Commanders. I don't mind him coming in a few colors like Red and Black but they need to slow down the number of CC. Once you have facelss, hooded, and armor everything else is gravy. |

Well at a push, the different Snake Eyes could be other Joes with masks on for a commando raid (I did say "at a push"!), but multiple Dukes are pretty well useless.

I am more tired of all the CC rehashes, especially when they spoil what would otherwise be good army builder sets. The Duke repaints are a close second.
