This review is from: GI Joe Valor vs. Venom Figure: 12" Voice FX Duke (Toy)

If you are a die hard G.I. Joe fan, the previous review is for you. My son got this guy for x-mas and loved it. He always wanted one and this is the first one he's ever had. So, to him it was totally cool. He does talk kind of funny and you have to press the button on his stomach repeatedly to look like he's really talking, but that's just small potatoes if you are a kid experiencing his first G.I. Joe guy.

My son loved all the gear and was fascinated buy the real-looking clothes for just a toy. It is one of his favorite toys.

So, a little kid would love it, I am sure. Hope this helps.

This review is from: GI Joe Valor vs. Venom Figure: 12" Voice FX Duke (Toy)

See it in the store, don't touch it. Don't buy it. Don't even consider it. Hey, I'm a HUGE fan of G.I. Joe, let alone the Valor vs. Venom series, but this thing is the pits! His mouth stays open, he talks to slow, and he looks like Micheal off of Everybody Loves Raymond when he "yells"! I don't have this toy, but I've tested it out at Wal-Mart a few times, and by his freakish little helmetty piece of crud, his red mouth, and his tendancy to talk slowly, I said, No way, Jose! This is how he talks...

We.... (30 trillion years later...) Need.... (30 zillion years later...) To....

Follow me? Now, if you buy this, there is a bright side to it. If you press his stomach numerously, moving his mouth like he's actually saying something and try to move his mouth like he's saying the words, he talks a little faster, and looks kind of real. I gave this toy a one star educational value because it teaches children to....accesorize?????? :-) I gave this toy a five star durability rating because all of the GI Joe products I own are highly durable and I'm sure they wouldn't stop here with this thing. The toy would probably be kinda fun if you do the talking technique I said and buy some 12 inch Joes and Cobras. Overall, it would probably be well, 3 stars if you don't use my talking technique. If you do use my technique, it would be kicked up to about 4 stars overall. The G.I. Joe products I do own are (in order of purchase):

Night Attack Chopper (totally rocks)
Wild Bill w/ Mission Disk (pretty darn good for a bald southern guy!)
Smokescreen Transport (rocks but the spy thing on the back doesn't rotate like in the movies)
G.I. Joe Trading Card game starter set (rocks)
Valor vs. Venom Duke vs. Cobra Commander
Valor vs. Venom Tunnel Rat vs. Electric Eel
Valor vs. Venom Wild Bill vs. Coil Crusher
Valor vs. Venom Agent Jinx vs. Cobra Slice
Valor vs. Venom Dusty vs. Zartan
G.I. Joe Valor vs. Venom the movie (DVD)

That's all folks! Oh and two more things:

One: G.I. Joe Spy Troops the movie is cool but it's waaaaayyy too short (44 minutes long)
Two: For those of you who don't know what Valor vs. Venom is, either check out www.gijoe.com or read the following passage:

Under the direction of Cobra Commander, Dr. Mindbender has stolen the DNA of the world's most ferocious creatures and has combined them with hand-picked Cobra soldiers, or innocent civilians, creating a virtually unstoppable army of Venom troopers (AKA V-Troops, V-Troopers). Bla bla bla and the Joe team has to defeat them. The end.

PS>>> I have the Valor vs. Venom DVD but I haven't been able to see it yet, let alone I've never seen the movie before! <:-o
