his is why I am not Gung Ho on the Resolute figures yet.
While I too am not willing to tattoo a globe on my bare chest and start talking with a Cajun accent, I really like the aesthetic of the figures, and if they don't completely suck I will collect some of them as a subset. It's the first duke that I've liked in a while.
My problems aren't with the style but the execution. In the art, Duke is wearing a brown shirt under his lighter brown shirt - which looks really cool... On the figure, he's wearing a really short sleeved shirt and a really long brown elbow pad, because there's a strip of flesh between the two shirts. Little things like that can ruin a great figure for me. Too many of them, and I'll lose interest in picking up the whole line.
And the Cobra commander holds no interest for me. I think I've bought my last one till the movie.
