Billy...where do we begin? Billy is the original dude seen in many Tech Deck and Tech Deck Dude logos. Not to be confused with Rodney (who is also generic but BALD) Billy is always seen wearing a hat/hood. Billy is the only TDD to have 3 "G1" sculpts, the beginning of a copious collection.
- "G1" Billy (1) is the dude described above. There are 2 variants, as well as a magnetic reissue.
- "G1" Billy (2) curiously became a boxer with a hoodie. There are 7 variants.
- "G1" Billy (3) returns to form with another generic mold, of course, with a backwards hat. There are 4 variants.
G1 Billy Version 1
Original Plug feet variant from Crew 2 single pack (2000)
Magnetic feet variant from Crew 2 single packs (2001)
Re-issued as one of the Talk Back boards (2002)
G2 Billy:
TDD's #1 Dude Evolved... But he never got a single-pack variant in G2? Both of Billy's Variants came in pricier play set packaging.
G2 Billy Version 1 (2003)
This red-cap Billy is included solo with an RC or a reprint of Sumo San from the Downhill set in an RC pack.
G2 Billy Version 2 (2003)
This Construction worker Billy has a helmet magnet, making him the first dude with a third magnet beside the typical two feet magnets. He was included in a reprint of the Daredevil Race Set.
The Boxer Punches Back: Billy Gets Two G3 Sculpts, one of which is familiar to G1 fans.
- G3 Billy (1): Is reuse of G1 Crew 9 Billy with the hoodie, this time with bendable arms and boxing gloves. This figure was released in 2004 in the Evolution Series 4. Fun Fact: This is the only Tech Deck Dude that came with boxing gloves rather than regular hands!
- G3 Billy (2): This new mold is a bare-knuckle fighter! This shaved-head Billy prefers to box with nothing but his bandages on. The figure was released in 2005 in Evolution Series 7.
