I have been to walmarts in 6 states and the experience is always the same. Its like Walmart knows where to find the stupidest most incompetent people in the country for their stores.

Luckily, I don't already own a modern, green version of the AWE Striker. Otherwise, the only appeal this would have to me would be the new head sculpt. Looking at my figure in-hand, some of the paint apps seem to have almost a plastic look to them. I plan to tone down the orange hair with a wash with brick red. But I plan to only use the head. I have a custom Crankcase body already using green DG Shipwreck torso, Resolute Beachhead arms, and Renegades Tunnel Rat legs.
You mentioned the helmet also. I think that this is originally from a Captain America figure. I'm using a resin cast from Avac's lab. Jason

I thought that helmet was from the 25th/dg line. Was on duke and steeler maybe?

In all seriousness since Scarlett was so meh if they don’t nail Duke this line is going to feel very flat.

No. I've never seen that helmet before. The only 25th helmet with straps was Bazooka's helmet. I think the clutch helmet has a strap too, but I think that is Bazooka's helmet.

Crankcase comes with a FAST (Future Assault Shell Technology) helmet, which appears to be newly sculpted and unlike the previous helmets of the G.I. Joe line. While I don't collect the Captain America figures, I thought that the helmets sculpted for that series were of the M1 helmet series (WWII army helmets). Like the body armor for the H.I.S.S. driver, this seems to be an entirely new piece.

Picked up a Retro RB. Wanted to do a head Swap with the Tiger Force Roadblock. Looks like I will either need to paint or find another head.

Hopefully, they will give us a great Duke and CC. They don't need to tool new parts IMO to give us these figures. I will list my preferred recipes once again, in case the mustache is reading this: Retro Duke: 50th Flint figure with Ren. or 50th Duke head, in a V1 deco, with the 25th Duke Bandolier. Retro CC: Ren. ultimate hooded CC in a V2 deco. If they give us these figures, I'll be a happy lil' Joe!!!

Thanks TJF for the side by side of RB. Looks like I will be getting that RB for the hands. Then I can complete my custom. Gotta figure out what to use that RB head for as this will not be my Ultimate RB.
