Got my wave 3.5 in today and immediately opened my extra Duke and fixed him. I'm a Duke fan and I hate Tatum's face, so I pulled an extra Renegades Duke head and swapped them out. I think he looks a lot better now.

I haven't even seen a UltDuke and you're already customizing one... cry:


Can you scan that background? All I ever see are small pics.

Thats very cool. Did you have to mod the head at all to get it to fit?

didn't have to mod anything, his head sets a little lower that the Tatum head, but it doesn't really show.

This is my favorite insert from the vintage line, next to the 1985 catalog...I must have starred at those for hours as a kid. I would like to find one without the banners and text (there is a small one inside). If anyone knows where I could find this I would pay good money for a large print of it

I hate tatum too. I plan on removing every tatum head as soon as I open them. That looks nice, and I think I have a couple of those Renegades Duke heads lying around.

Neat!

I plan on doing the same thing, but with the sharper-featured POC Duke head.


Don't really get why so many people hate Tatum. Is it because he speaks with a southern drawl and is visually pleasing to the ladies?

Dunno, I just know that the Renegade head looks cool and I have a few lying around.

I just hate tatum as duke. He is a bad actor unless its a comedy and even then he barely passes. I just wish gi Joe had gotten a better actor. And the rock isn't much better.

I have resolved to utilize any Channing Tatum headed figure not as Duke, but as a JOE with the codename of 'Magic' First name will be Michael...

I tried out my POC Duke head and it looked a little wierd and it fit pretty loose.
