Duke and Venomous Maximus
UPC: 076930559758 Product Number: 55975 Assortment Number: 60115 GI JOE, America’s daring, highly trained special mission force, faces a fearsome new threat from the evil COBRA organization. DR. MINDBENDER has joined the DNA of COBRA fighters with that of the Earth’s most savage creatures, creating hybrid warriors with dangerously superior fighting skills. To fight these V-TROOPS, the GI JOE team develops advanced battle technology. It’s a thrilling new chapter in the battle to protect freedom and justice for GI JOE—A REAL AMERICAN HERO! The calm and determined battlefield commander of the GI JOE team is always out in front, leading by example, never asking a team member to do a job he wouldn’t do himself. His experience and coolness under fire bolsters morale and gives the GI JOE team a firm anchor to hold onto even in the worst situations. He hopes to defeat the latest COBRA threat – human-animal hybrids – by building advanced combat systems that are linked closely to their human operators. The ultimate creation of DR. MINDBENDER and his insidious Evilution Program, VENOMOUS MAXIMUS is a fiendish hybrid developed by combining the DNA of the world’s most ferocious and deadly creatures with the brilliant tactical and military skills of the GI JOE team’s own general, “Hawk†Abernathy. Empathy and compassion have been weeded out of him and replaced with reptilian cold-bloodedness, insectile purpose, and feral savagery. He is the leader of the venom troopers, legions of human-animal hybrids made from the world’s fiercest creatures. As their leader, VENOMOUS MAXIMUS controls the most lethal force that the GI JOE team has ever faced. These rivals come with lots of battle accessories, including a removable war hammer and cloak for the evil new leader!

I have the Duke, but not Venomous Maximus. I got Duke as a loose figure from Brian's Toys.

Agreed. VM was a beast... too bad he's not so imposing compared to the new guys.

I have VM, but I sold Duke on the bay.
I still dig VM, seriously, is he any dumber than Serpentor or Cobea La? |

In my opinion, nay. My ONLY problem with him is the whole "Mutated Hawk" thing. I prefer to think of him as Serpentor 2.0, this time with the DNA and memories of Hawk in addition to the original formula, Venom, and the memories of Serpentor Classic.

His bio pretty much reads as Serpentor to me. I didn't like the whole mutate Hawk thing, but whatever
