While this isn’t the type of figure I’d normally go for, I think it’d make an excellent gift for a younger action figure fan. I saw this demonstrated at Toy Fair last year, and it’s got some pretty cool interactive features that I would have loved as a kid. On clearance now at Wal-Mart for $29 (regularly $49), the Ultimate Duke is a pretty good deal.
