This is a lazy custom, there is no doubt about that. A Dollar General Duke outfitted with the hands and accessories from a Captain America. I can't believe how easy it was. The hardest part was finding the hair dryer to get the feet off. But I think its a pretty cool Grunt when all is said and done. That is an Air Raid head by the way. The Dollar General Duke head looks like a 12 year old.

I did have to trim up the Captain America hand plugs or whatever you call them to make them sit correctly. But it was easy. I don't do figures much, so for someone who does them regularly, it should be child's play.

I took a 15 minute grunt at work today and was told not to take so long in the bathroom next time... :rotfl:

Seriously, great figure though! :)

Just took the leggings off a Captain America ("Captain Rogers") figure, shaved down the Duke legs a bit, and slipped them on. The only body parts that aren't DG Duke are the hands and head.
