G.I. JoeClassified Series Retro Cardback Duke, Collectible 6-Inch Action Figure with 10 Accessories

This is my go to gift for all the 5-8 year old boys I know!

Who knew that one little action figure could bring back all the nostalgia of my childhood—and all the existential dread of adulthood? This G.I. Joe Duke action figure isn’t just a toy; it’s a reminder of simpler times, back when my biggest worry was getting the last slice of pizza, not the crushing weight of daily responsibilities.Duke comes with 10 accessories, which is great because I could use that many to deal with my own battles—like fending off deadlines, dodging bills, and navigating the minefield of adulting. The detail on this figure is top-notch, so much so that I almost feel bad for keeping him on my desk, where he’s forced to watch me struggle through my workday. But hey, misery loves company, right?The articulation is impressive too. Duke can strike all sorts of heroic poses, while I sit at my computer trying to remember what it was like to have dreams. He’s got all the gear he needs to save the world—meanwhile, I’m just trying to save enough energy to make it to the weekend.So if you’re looking for a little piece of your childhood to remind you that life used to be less complicated, Duke’s your man. He might not solve all your problems, but at least he’ll look cool while you try to.

G.I. Joe Classified Series Retro Cardback is such a nostalgia kick and the figure inside comes with such details. If you or someone your purchasing this for is a fan of the '80s series ether toy line or cartoon this is a PERFECT purchase! Grab this when you can, im happy i did and you will too!Build quality is outstanding!

Great quality

This is a well designed and well made GI Joe. It’s sturdy and can be moved into many different poses with nice accessories. My grandson loves it

So THIS is how Hasbro should have done the original Classified Retro Cardback figures. The cardback is a much thicker stock than the Walmart Exclusive ones that were originally released. It kind of makes me sad that they picked Snake-Eyes and Storm Shadow for that set, since it would have been awesome to have those two displayed in their Retro packaging. But because Walmart distribution is sort of wonky, and the fact that they shipped a lot of their figures in bubble envelopes, all of my copies were basically destroyed, and there was never any way to get them replaced with displayable packaging.Duke is definitely a step in the right direction. If you're a fan of this character, there's no real reason to skip it, even if you have the original Classified version. I'm not sure if there's a option for Snake-Eyes and Storm Shadow to get their retro cardbacks re-released with the new packaging, but if there is, I'd be down for picking them up. Nice to see that Hasbro is at taking at least some feedback to heart.

For a long time I’ve looked at the classified series and never pulled the trigger on a purchase. I bought my first figure for the my desk to mess around with and these figures are very detailed with great weaponry. Highly impressed one a week!!

The media could not be loaded. I use g.i. Joe action figure and chop legs and torso off with hot glue gun or shoe goo and I put in rc4wd Toyota pickup for driver fit. Great for 1/10 scale crawler.
