1/6 Hot Toys ROTS - COMMANDER CODY

[IronPatriotFTW]

I just got one of these, but his comlink falls out of his light up hand. Is that safe to glue the tabs in?

Tabs? Use his light-up arm instead.

I assume you mean the holoprojector that sits in his light up hand? Have the tabs broken off? If you have to use glue I would be careful about the LED light (unless you don’t care about that).

Mine came off as well but the tabs on the holoprojector aren’t broken and it sits ok in the hand without glue.

I just lightly dabbed the holes and put the tabs in. It wouldn’t stay on and I wanted it secure. Haven’t tested lights yet. But was clean with the glue

Talk about the perfect day for this guy to arrive! Brand new still sealed. While it was definitely a mark up, not as bad as I thought I was going to have to pay for a brand new one. Especially when I’ve almost bought used ones with broken antenna a few times that went for even more than I paid for this guy.

More appropriate today, but would also have been funny if he'd shown up tomorrow for Revenge of Fifth.

Because, well, y'know.

Cody has unbelievable shelf presence and was our first dive into the Clone Pool.

But damn does his articulation suck compared to what we have now.

I like my Cody's better than Rex and majority of 501st, the color just pops nicely. Well, if you know, you know.

What are the known articulation issues? Mine is still unboxed.

The light up arm can be very fragile. Be careful with it.

Not an articulation issue but the shoulder antenna is diecast while the helmet antenna isn’t. I’ve seen a lot of figures with broken helmet antennas, especially the tip.

So true, so very true.

He is a beautiful boy tho. Some folks rotate around the shelf, but Cody is always in the front. Doing what he does best: being freaking gorgeous.

I have a spare newer clone body (from the 501st I believe) that I hope to replace the stock body with so hopefully the articulation will be less of an issue then. I’ll just have to port over the one arm due to the switch out nature. However, I have considered foregoing that feature and just buying a replacement right arm armor piece to repaint and match so that I then don’t have to fuss about that anymore. Especially considering how fragile folks have mentioned it being and I don’t use light up features all that much other than to check to make sure they work

You could take a light up arm and remove the bits to just use that. It wouldn’t be too difficult.

I appreciate the suggestion, but I personally don’t feel like going through the trouble of hollowing out the light up arm to make it fit like a normal piece of forearm armor to then use on the newer body. Plus, I would like to keep it as an available option should I ever need to revert it back to its original form in the event I’m in dire need and have to sell it. And for me, it’s a lot easier to just repaint and color match a stock piece of amor from another clone figure

You'll have to post pictures when it is all done. Customizing has never been my thing but love to see how others get it done.

I'd end up breaking something lol.

212th Battalion is the most feasible next in line clone-army building candidate to be announced, with Cody and CW general Kenobi has already set in motion waiting....
