All within half a second (or less depending on your hard drive speed!). However, dupes, unlike other workshop content, CAN NOT BE SUBSCRIBED TO, as doing so simply causes GMod to see the dupe, realize it's not a regular addon, unsubscribe you from it, and delete it.

This includes dupes, which makes up a stunningly large portion of the workshop's content. See, all Garry's Mod content is stored on the workshop, where they can be searched, subscribed to, favorited, liked/disliked, commented on, etc. One of these awesome features was proper in-game integration with dupes. In fact, many awesome new things were brought to the table with the massive switch to the workshop! But, unfortunately, just as many (if not more) awesome things about the toybox were lost. This, unfortunately, meant the death of the Toybox. And, of course, Valve figured one of the first games that should switch over to using the Steam workshop would be our good old friend, Garry's Mod, since the entire point of the game was largely based around modding. However, as time progressed, Valve introduced a new concept to Steam known simply as the "Steam Workshop" that allowed mod creators to host their custom game content. This, coupled with the fact that duplicates were exceptionally easy to create (just plop some stuff in your world how you want it, copy it all, and upload your copy!), meant that the majority of the toybox quickly started filling up with dupes. These "duplicates" were simply copies of objects spawned in a Garry's Mod world, and as such, could be absolutely ANYTHING. Now, there were many different types of mods for GMod, and a massive amount of which were known as "duplicates" (or "dupes" for short).

So, he created the "Toybox" a special place accessable at any time within the game where mod creators could upload their masterpieces, and us regular folk could download them simply by searching for what we wanted, and clicking "download." This game was well known for just how many awesome mods existed for it, and as such it's developer (a guy named "Garry") decided it'd be best to make downloading these mods as easy and efficient as possible. Once upon a time, a beautiful game known as "Garry's Mod" existed that allowed you to do pretty much anything your stupid mind desired. Just grab the latest build of the program here. Now you have the cheating console enabled and you just have to press “~” to open the console while playing.Wanna' skip all the boring stuff and get straight to downloading some dupes? Awesome.
