What can I do with a duped armature?
Because the duped meshes are unique Objects they can be assigned new materials and/or linkages to an armature.

What’s the best way to rotate an armature?
The solution was to select the armature only, skip into pose mode, select the root of the armature (the one bone that the whole thing will transform around) and then rotate (R Key, Z key, 180). I’d set up the armature with some IK control bones (hands and feet), pole targets (knees and elbows) and the hip bone being the root parent for the rest.
