Unless there's some reason to the story for Duke's grin, they gotta get rid of it. It's extra creepy.
Also, His elbows/sleeves aren't correct making it look odd, and it looks like there's either a surface violation or mapping error on the leg screw holes. Sorry. Went to school for this stuff so they stand out like crazy.
Looking forward to hearing more about this game.

I have both Toy Soldiers games. The 1st was good, the 2nd was BETTER. Being able to play as rambo was stellar.
This is possibly the best news for GIJOE to finally get noticed to get a real game. This is gunna explode on the marketplace. Everything about toy soldiers 2 was PURE 1000% 80's nostalgia. From the loading screen with the toy boxes of playsets, to the tomcats flying around.
This WILL be great. Toy solderis has everything..shooter..tower defense..strategy..action..flying..minigames.
This news is seriously underrated. This is gunna be HUGE, and if they do the Joe part right..it will awaken gijoe.
