Hasbro had released the 12-inch "G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra" Conrad "Duke" Hauser Jungle Mission figure (see my post HERE) which I immediately switched outfits to the Soldier Story EOD (Explosive Ordnance Disposal) outfit instead - pictures HERE. Then Soldier Story announced the release of their US Army 10th Special Forces Group 1/6 military figure (posted HERE) with a certain resemblance to Channing Tatum as Duke and wearing the afore-mentioned MultiCam pattern camouflage uniform.
Still not satisfied, I decided to put Hasbro's 12-inch Duke in a 1/6 scale MultiCam camouflage pattern uniform (shirt and pants) by Barrack Sergeant


This may not be a screen-accurate MultiCam Duke but as far as the Law of First Impression goes, I think the first impression ain't bad at all IMHO. He even has what looks like the case containing the nanotechnology-based warheads (it's actually the Sniper rifle case from BBI "Elite Force: Terminate" Lucifer Sniper Assassin figure)

Very good buddy. Please let me introduce my oppinion about this subject: Change the Duke's head and put on true type body or another body, and I guess that the effect will be better than in this undistinguished hasbro body...
Tks a lots....

thanks for the input ;p GREAT idea for another kitbash in the near future
He looks great! I love the Channing figure. His head sculpt looks very accurate. Only tiny complaint I have on it is that his head looks kinda "shinny". I wonder if there is a way to make him look more natural.
