Released in September 2020 as an online-only fan channel exclusive, this is Destro in his old "Pimp Daddy" outfit. Notice Hasbro chose to go with the more PC and official sounding 'Profit Director' designation instead.
Profit Director Destro comes with the following gear and accessories: a attache briefcase, a machine gun, a pistol, a removable chain necklace, an exclusive removable leopard skin coat, an exclusive stack of cash on fire and an exclusive pair of sun shades. Using the poll options, rate the figure on a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being a total miss and a 10 being plastic perfection, based on what you feel the figure deserves. Ratings should take overall design, sculpt, paint apps and paint deco, accessories and articulation into consideration. Thanks for voting and Yooo Joe!!!

I don't see the appeal of this figure at all. It's everything I disliked about the color changes as the toy line moved into the 90s.

Ridiculous figure. Ridiculous execution. Just a waste.

That's what unapologetically makes him a 10 for me. A perfectly updated Classified homage to the OG.

lol I always knew about the old Pimp Daddy one, but I never put together that Profit Director was also PD... at least Hasbro didn't totally bitch out on this little joke, even though "Slave 1" is still off-limits.

Pimp Daddy Destro baby!
9/10 Never have a make it Rain money scene without him. Jokes aside, the homage to those ridiculolus outfits with fur coats you sometimes see worn by guests at high end Hotels is infinitely hilarious to me. I would see these things all the time on business travel. And yes, I've seen people wear ridiculous Gold necklaces and glasses like that too. I don't know why they do it . . . . . . Here's a google of Justin Bieber Gold Necklace glasses as example. https://www.google.com/search?client...cklace+glasses |

There's supposedly some logic to it, other ships in Lego have their names modified to be easier for consumers to find, or so that's the story but it seems like it's consistent i.e. every ship is now "General Grievous' Starfighter" or "Yoda's Starfighter" though I'm not sure these ships were given names
PD Destro is 10/10 for me, he's the second Classified I bought which started my trend of buying everything in the deco, so far I've got the 2007 figure, the PD Funko, & I'm looking into the 9inch statue on sale right now |

This is the worst figure in the line, for me. Just an ugly, ugly figure. I gave it a 1.

I guess it's just how you see it, for me I was impressed we got something this obscure so soon in the line, kind of like how I was surprised we got someone odd like Croc-Master so soon in the growing line but that's why Classified is so fun

I don't have this figure,so i didnt rate him.He's probably one i'd pick up in store,just never felt like ordering on-line.But i kinda like him as something different,and also the gold lettering on the package looks cool.
