SSC Duke 12 inch figure

[karamazov80]

I must have had the worst luck, then. I've got 4, and they all have the same problems. Even sent my Storm Shadow body back to SS, and they returned it with an equally loose body.

Oh, well. . .

Seriously though, Joe Pro bodies, so far, have sucked. I hope Duke is an improvement, but will not hold my breath.

That does suck. I've had a few loose Pros, but all the Joes I've gotten have been tight so far.

I remember back in the day, when that gif required a google search.

Yeah, pretty convenient to have it so easily accessible.

As for Pro bodies on Joe figures I've been happy with mine. My troopers and Cobra Commander are all great... SS and SE were swapped out due to preference, but there was nothing wrong with the bodies... Anything that came in an Indiana Jones box is a different story.

Yup. Each one (with the exception of Senior) had some type of "Mr. Hanky" aspect.

I guess I'm lucky. Never had any issues with the pro. I did have issue with GTG though. I know he was on the buck but his body was kind of bad. That was the last body issue I had with any of my SS figures.

I haven't had any problems with the Joe figures. Indy & SW that's another story.

That is encouraging. All my Sideshow Joes are very precariously posed. A/C blows on them the wrong way, and their arms will fall to their sides.

None of mine have any problems holding a pose save for the original Snake Eyes body.

I was expecting a bit more from the factory paint.

Prolly should wait to see it in hand

Through an apparent system glitch in the processing of my phone order way back when I'll have two exclusive Dukes arriving from SSC this Friday (of course I got charged for them both as well.) I guess that doubles my chances that I'll get good paint apps.

Congratulations on scoring two of the exclusive Duke. I wonder if anyone else ended up with two due a system glitch?

Mine will arrive on Monday.

That's all the space I have for my Joes collection
It's already crowded in there--guess I'll have to cancel my POs for FF, Flint, & BH

 

[Riceroket]

No Storm Shadow?!

 

[SHOCK-Advised!]

Nope. I couldn't get the SE version.

BTW, Riceroket!

 

[Natrix]

Nope. I couldn't get the SE version.

Super Elite version??

I wonder when online retailers will start to receive them. I never pre-ordered Duke.

FF (arguably of course), Flint and BH > Cobra throne. Get rid of it and free up some space.

My thoughts as well. He's starting to look a little like the Sarge from Small Soldiers due to the extremely toy-like paint job. Hopefully that's not the case in person. I haven't had to have a SSC figure repainted since ROTS Obi Wan and Anakin.

Nah, Chip Hazzard had grey hair. But to tell you the truth, I'd love to see decent Small Solider figures.

Now you guys have got me thinking Duke looks like that Small Soldiers guy. Every time I see a pic of his head he makes me think of that guy.
