G.I. Joe is a highly skilled, on-demand, special operations force of men and women from around the globe tasked with defending the world from Cobra, a ruthless criminal organization bent on total domination. Wherever there’s trouble, G.I. Joe is there. New to the G.I. Joe Classified Series line, Duke comes ready for adventure, with multiple points of articulation for high poseability. This Duke figure contains 11 character-inspired accessory pieces including helmet, binoculars, alternate closed-fist hands, backpack, knife, peg stand, and weapon accessories. Duke was fluent in French, German, and English when he enlisted. Graduated top of his class at airborne school. Broadened his polyglot status in Special Language School focusing on Asian and South East Asian dialects. After running four different Special Forces schools Duke turned down a commission to serve as acting First Sergeant of G.I. Joe.
