G.I. Joe: Resolute Duke - another look

I find it interesting to look at my live traffic feed and see where people are coming from. Sometimes, some of the posts that I have done become a featured topic in a Joe related forum. A picture of the un-produced Baroness 1/6th figure was recently featured in a thread on hisstank.com.

A post of mine about customizing Power Team head sculpts to work with Hasbro bodies was featured in the forums on onesixthwarriors.com. Cool stuff! My blog actually gets some readers once in a while!

Now if only folks would leave comments - and not the random "selling shoes to make money" or pharmaceutical spam comments - real comments! I get a few, but not much. Even poor random bloggers like me need validation once in a while!

Anyway...

Sometimes I get hits from people who search for Resolute Duke. What's really cool about that is that my humble, sad little blog is #2 on google.com when searching for "resolute duke."

Now that's cool!

So up top there is my 1/6th scale Resolute Duke with a minor update to his uniform.

This is my original version -

Similar enough to the 3 3/4" version, but still needing work.

I found a thin black pull-over and a light brown t-shirt that seemed to work a little better for lil' Duke's uniform.

Looks better! Now I need to keep an eye out for a vest/combat harness that is closer to the small version.

Duke and Duke agree! The XM-8 is a great weapon!

Hey, maybe I'll get bumped to Google's #1 spot in the search for Resolute Duke!
