Maybe I should get a job at HT then, because they haven't noticed it eitherI've seen that film 100+ times and I've never noticed that before haha. I was probably too busy admiring Padme's wardrobe. You have the eyes of a hawk.

Which they left out, cause of.. Reasons? Hot Toys’s the new Hasbro.That's called attention to detail.
The fact that HT doesn't have the red on the fin for the Phase I or the blue on the Phase II helmets makes me really scratch my head.View attachment 575730View attachment 575731
And they added a detail by sculpting the lines onto the chest armor so it’s one step forward and one step back.
I'm fairly certain those 2 lines are just a decal.
We trade one detail for another.I can sort of give them a pass on the Phase 1 fin light because the bit of red paint they would probably throw on is a poor substitute for an LED. The painted red on the Sideshow version makes me think of lipstick on Sy Snootles. At least it’s in the back, though it should at least be black to imply an unlit light.
But the missing tube stripes on the Phase 2 helmet is really bad. It’s a glaring omission when they remembered it for the 501st, 332nd, CG, Rex, and Cody. And they added a detail by sculpting the lines onto the chest armor so it’s one step forward and one step back.
It’s like they told an intern to remove all the colors from the helmet and they also removed the stripes. Hopefully it’ll be addressed for the production figure.
why does no one seem to notice that the HT Attack of the Clones movie figure uses Clone Wars animated series based blasters. It should be using the movie design
Is there a comparison available?why does no one seem to notice that the HT Attack of the Clones movie figure uses Clone Wars animated series based blasters. It should be using the movie design

and mouth lines too thick. and no red light on rear.Still think the phase 1 helmet is too big...
Oof. You don’t want to hear “Sideshow did it better”.and mouth lines too thick. and no red light on rear.
Today I received a Sideshow deluxe 501st trooper and comparing the phase 1 helmet on that to the HT 501st phase 1 helmet it is night and day. Sideshow did so much better with their phase1 helmet it is just silly seeing them side by side
exactly. C'mon HT, you are better than this! in fact, HT's botched phase 1 helmet was the first thing to nudge me to buy the Sideshow one. I wanted a 501st phase 1 but since HT dropped the ball so Sideshow was the only game in town.Oof. You don’t want to hear “Sideshow did it better”.
Then it'll be too small. Just right for the 2040 release though.They'll shrink it in 2030 re-release.
I like how HT’s repetitiveness with Marvel drove you away and now their repetitiveness with clones has brought you back.I just put down my pre-order for this figure. I’m not that knowledgeable about whether this figure is screen accurate but I’m happy HT is finally making a shiny clone trooper that just looks good in general. Not sure what everyone else thinks but I lost interest in HT figures years ago on account of it being endless Marvel releases and the quality not always being the best. The interesting licenses (Terminator, Alien, etc) just disappeared so it’s nice to see this one. The prequels may have their flaws but I do like the visuals of the clone army and various other elements in those movies.
