1/6 Hot Toys - TMS064 -The Clone Wars: ARC Trooper Jesse

If we waited for the 501st to wrap up itll be a decade before we get anything else.

They made Appo and the Heavy 501st which havent appeared in S7

I meant from the animated shows. They’ve only done season 7 characters and The Bad Batch. Which is potentially problematic whether you want Fives or Waxer or Howzer or Wolffe.

Appo never had an official live action appearance. The character we speculate to be Appo in RotS doesnt even have a kama or pauldron either.

Wasn’t he presented until the ROTS license though? I remember everyone saying his design was from both the movie and the show and made the figure incorrect from both. So I’m pretty sure they still hasn’t done clones outside S7.

Why would Commander Appo have the same look as Sergeant Appo? He got an armor change when he was promoted to Commander which means if he had the arrow on his helmet it would be incorrect. Commander Appo should only have a pauldron and not a kama. The figure HT made looks more like Commander Bow than it does Appo.

I'm thinking about using the binocs that come with Jesse on "Appo" so I can make Bow

Sideshow took the money out of my account for Jesse and Clone Pilot.

Now the agonizing wait until he ships.

I was just charged for the clone trooper but not Jesse

Looks nice, prefer the recent Vaughn clone though even with no sculpt - I find the upper body/head articulation really limited with the hard (and oversized?) double pauldron.

Just got charged for him..:hurry up SS

I LOVE it! Excellent figure (aside from non-realistic (CW) pauldron....), happy to add it to my collection!

Id take literally any orange grunt over ARC Echo or Fives.

These are the thoughts of a HERETIC.

But seriously, I dont see why we cant have both. I dont see why HT cant make both, when they always have three different Iron Men brewing and four different Spideys. They can do that, but only one trooper at a time is allowed...?

 

[Ramatuelle]

As soon as he said that I knew what the reaction would be. I thought @Ramatuelle would get to it first though.

You know what is funny about this gif is, it really seems like we're always looking at a sea of blue and white and in the middle of that group is Cody! Is he with the 212th? He is almost never with them, or he's with a group of 212th vastly outnumbered by 501st.

I fail to see the problem in this?

I think people are misunderstanding me. I am in no way saying I do not want the 501st ARCs... I am saying I want something else for a while before they do ANOTHER blue trooper.

The 212th is a larger army than the 501st. Cody is the highest ranking officer in the GoR

I considered using this gif instead but the implications may have been… a little awkward.

But I’m going to use it anyway because this is just an undeniably beautiful figure.

I honestly had no interest in clones other than Cody (who I still need to pick up) and Rex simply b/c of how easily out of hand it could get, but man does this figure look incredible. We'll see if I cave on Jesse when my Rex arrives this week.

Cody is in my opinion, the preeminent HT clone so far. He is the most beautiful. His headsculpt and paint are as yet unmatched. The weathering on his armor is *chef's kiss* He is, true, a museum pose kind of guy - as his articulation is not as good as that as more recent troopers - but not to be missed for all that. I highly recommend hunting him down.

Or.... wait a few months and see! Because I have a feeling, a more than strong feeling, that we may get Imperial Cody as a con exclusive. That would give you all the Cody goodness on top of a stronger and more flexible body.

Also, alla youse sleeping on Vaughn, you are going to be sorry later when he's gone. I dont see much about Vaughn out here, that is because all the people who own him are too busy enjoying his bad-assitude to be snapping pix.

I keep thinking I am going to step up and acquire SSC Wolffe, deficits and all. Then I go to Feebay and behold those aftermarket prices.
