This Duke is the coolest Duke so far. It deserves 7 out of 10 to me.

Yes. Anytime I went to move his arm, they started to come loose.

That new TF Duke figure looks cool. I will get one when I see it on retail.

Among the reasons I love this figure, it comes with the SMG Stalker should have come with! So when I get TF Duke, he can carry an M16 and Stalker can have his SMG back!

I am really looking foward to getting my TF Duke, as I am a big fan of Tiger Force(Here's hoping for more TF figures). I'm especially happy he comes with his original gun (which my friends and I always called the nail gun and I hope to get a few extra of those).
I remember as a kid being mad TF Duke had brown hair even though the card art depicted him as blonde. Now I'm kinda upset he doesn't have it, but I guess a little brown paint could fix that if I really need it that way. Thanks for the review, it makes me even more excited to receive my figures in the mail. |

I didn't think we would be getting a fixed looking crotch like the updated Snake Eyes mold has, but I figured we would get the same one that came with the Wave 7 Duke. Try to match up those figures to see if there is a difference.

I was looking forward to this figure. A corrected Duke, perhaps not traditional V1 color scheme, but the flaws corrected. No more slit wrist arms. No more diaper crotch. As shown in this image from the Hasbro booth during JoeCon...
But, sadly the production figure utilizes the old crotch, and the fixed arms, while aesthetically pleasing, are very temperamental and fall off if the wind blows hard. Not to mention the elbow range of motion stayed the same. For the record, I will still take them over the slit wrists any day of the week. Aside from the fixed arms, Duke utilizes the same molds for the rest of the figure. From a personal standpoint, I have hated that head since the 5-packs come out. It looks like an overgrown child to me. Terrible. I knew this would still be the same, but please at some point Hasbro, make a new head for poor Duke. One that has the features of an adult, if you don't mind. Duke does come with new accessories though, and they are a major improvement. He comes with a Helmet, Backpack, Removable Bandoleer, Binoculars, a pistol and rifle. The bandoleer and helmet are the same, but the pack, binocs and rifle are new, and accurate to his original release. I love them. They certainly bring back memories for Duke, much more so than the 2007 5-Pack release did. Kudos for doing something that some may consider trivial, but others find to be a joy. Overall, this is a filler figure that still suffers from articulation problems, and overload of character. Figure Rating 4 out of 10 (and the accessories pushed it that high) (and sorry...I as surprised to find that I had no access to a vintage counterpart to compare) As of this posting I declare all other dukes OBSOLETE. |

Any idea when we might actually be able to buy these wave 10 figures?
