My first ROC toy was Desert Ambush Duke, and I gotta say, it's sweet.
Accesories:
* machine gun
* pistol
* giant bazooka
* nanomite warhead
* vest
* helmet
* dog-tag style stand
The machine gun and pistol typically remain in his hand, due to the weight and size of the fairly realistic bazooka, and the nanomite has found it's way into the hands of VvV Hi-Tech, who is a passenger of the Night Attack Chopper. The helmet is really sweet. It looks like a real military helmet, and it has a night-vision scope that cover's Duke's eyes. The helmet typically stays on Duke's head. His removably vest is fairly easy to get off, but without it, he's a bit too slim to be Duke, so the vest typically stays on. The dog-tag base...is misplaced.
My only complaint about the accesories is that the machine gun tends to come out of his hand fairly easily.
Posability:
Duke is about as poseable as any ROC figure. The vest does restrict movement slightly, though.
Fun Factor:
Typically, I play with my Joes once a day, since I'm only a teen. And since Duke is thus far my only ROC toy, I usually mix him with my onlder Joes. I like to take the vest off and make him drive Dusty's Sand Razor. His passenger is always JvC Baroness, which I pretend is ROC Baroness, and she is now a Joe. Together, they hunt down JvC Destro and VvV Cobra Commander. This is a very fun toy!
Total score:
A solid 10/10.
