I think the reasoning behind using those molds for Duke and CC is that they are both the most recent builds for those characters. CC is a repaint of the SDCC Missile Command Center CC and Duke is a repaint of the 50th 3 pack version. So to a newcomer like Mustache, they appear to be the best choices since they are the most recent versions of these characters.

This is just beyond absurd. Well, the Jaye figure was pretty good as is, but the other two are just bad.
They obviously only use molds that were used during the 50th line, and that's fine. But straight up reissues of outdated crap? Fuck off. It's crazy how out of sync with the collectors they are. The 50th CC is as perfect as you'll get using available molds, and as mentioned a million times already, a datd Flint with a Duke head and a Steel Brigade bandolier would be a perfectly acceptable Duke. Those would sell like hot cakes. This crap? It's a total letdown and an easy pass. I had very low expectations, but somehow they still managed to disappoint. |

I blame the Duke on Weber (sorry Mark). He had a chance to do a definite Duke twice in the 50th line but botched both chance. Deuce pick sixes that have now become triple!

They’ll probably pack the case with 3 dukes.

Same, and I blame Booby Vala for that retro CC.
