Duke is a character in the Power Miners theme.

Description

In all of his 2009 variations, Duke has the standard sleeveless Power Miners suit, with a drill symbol in the middle of the torso. In 2010, Duke is seen sporting the new silver, heat-resistant armor.

The first variation of Duke is the variation with stubble on his face. He features a large smile and determined eyes. Unlike other variants, this version of Duke has two clearly-defined eyebrows instead of a single unibrow.

The second variation has the identical body as that of the first variation. However, it has a very clean face, with no coal dust or stubble at all. On the left side of the face, there is a cut that spans about a third of the face. Sometimes, he is depicted without his helmet, showing off his dark brown hair.

In the third version, Duke has coal dust covering most of his face, but still features a unibrow. This version also often comes with goggles attached to the helmet. This variant is considered the "main" version since it used for Duke's online bio and appears more frequently than the other two, as well as being the only version to appear in the 2010 sets.

Background

Duke is a veteran miner, although he's never seen anything like the Rock Monsters before.

Notes

  • Since three Power Miner minifigures share Duke's torso featuring the drill symbol, it is assumed that they are variations of the same character despite having different faces. However, it may be the case that they are intended to be different miners, since two of the variations appear together in the set 8709 Underground Mining Station in his first and second version.
  • Duke's second version is currently the only Power Miner whose hair colour is confirmed as dark brown.

A veteran miner, Duke has dug for gold, diamonds, and everything else of value around the globe. He's survived cave-ins, floods, and every other danger of a mine. But he's never seen anything like the rock monsters and the crystals, and sometimes he's not sure he believes in them!
