GB, where did you get this?

WarThrash · 06-08-2010, 01:43 PM

Well actually I'm pretty sure GB won't respond (I know I wouldn't check these boards if I were him) but I figure the title is attention-grabbing, so meh.

Anyways I want to know if this Duke figurine in this pic is available anywhere (I found it in the "George Twitties" thread). I figure it's probably something that doesn't exist outside of the developers studios, but I want one dammit.

They were available for awhile, but they're very rare. You might find one on EBAY every once and awhile. Expensive. Type in "DUKE NUKEM STATUE"

Here's a thread about it, I believe.

A post a ways down has a bunch of pictures of it.

Dear lord. That's alot of money. Still it's awesome. I'll have to wait till I feel like "blowing it out my ass" before I spend that much on it but I love statues of movie/game characters. Not to mention that compared to some other statues, that asking price isn't that high.

Thanks commando

Off topic: Is that the only photo of him with short hair?
On topic: Maybe new Duke figurines might be manufactured when the time comes.

It's not short hair, just pulled back. You can see some of it over his left shoulder.

On topic: The statue was given out to workers of the studio and a few others if I remember. Try your luck on ebay.

Those things were expensive new. I think they were about $85. They were linked from the old Resaurus site when the action figures were being made. They are porcelain. There were 8500 of them made I believe, and they are hand serial numbered on the bottom.
Expect to pay over $300 USD for one of any quality... they have become scarce.

They are referenced here...

I wonder if one of those figurines would be available in the Collector's Edition of DNF.
