      I asked about this in a thread a few weeks back, whether anyone "actually had" this toy.

      Used to see the ads in comics, but never saw it in stores.
      Peace.. Through Superior Firepower.

          I've had him since I got him for Christmas in the mid 1970's. Except for a broken kickstand he's in great shape and complete, you can't see the zip line hooks and the ( whatever you call the piece you hold on to to go down a zip line? ) and as you can see the electronics still work. The light also fits on top of the clear red piece on the unit top and there is a mirror inside that rotates to create a flashing red light.

            I like this a lot. Duke would got great with those Kenner Boy Scout figures.

              I have one now, but never even seen one IRL as a kid. Just the ads.

                Very cool. I also have only seen the ads as a kid and wanted one.

                    I recall one or too Dukes listed as Max the bionic dog on E-BAY awhile back but none were boxed, i've also heard rumors the Kenner did reboxed some DUKE leftovers as MAX but i have yet to see one

                      Wow,
                      That's really cool. I have never seen or even heard of Duke before. But, it's really impressive.
