1/6 Hot Toys ROTS - COMMANDER CODY

[jye4ever]

Centered yes it just doesn't swing all the way back but it should be centered mine is.

Yeah I have to say, having a folding stock that literally cannot be used makes no sense. I remember a cool thing about getting the ANH Stormtroopers was unfolding that stock, never realizing it was supposed to do that. I tried to play with this immediately and was like, ok, it moves but goes nowhere? Why the hell even bother then?

 

[jye4ever]

Yup makes no sense HT went and did a screw up.

Anything else?

I have a couple of these problems. My right arm is "loose-ish" and does not hold its articulation well, hands needed to be heated to open enough to hold the guns and my folding stock is the same. However, I can work around all this issues when posing but I hate the fat suit and how it bunches around the leg joint. I get they use the fat suit to hold the armor in place and it works in that sense but he looks like a size 16 fitting into yoga pants with the bunches around his hips.

Even with my complaining, Cody is an amazing figure. He is just not perfect

 

[Star-Crunch]

Most of these problems I can work with as Commander Cody is a great looking figure. I just hope I can get a figure with no joint issues.

I was afraid to push the battery forearm onto the peg it was hard but then I just gave one hard push it connected just right and it's on there good no problems not loose.

Holds up the holo just fine he looks great.

That may be my next move. Remove the right arm and reattach to improve the articulation.

On a side note: as if demand for this character could get any hotter, it's about to. Morrison has joined the cast of D+'s Kenobi series as... Commander Cody! So grab this figure while we can before the new version (with all-new armor...c'mon you know thats happening) hits after he appears on the show chasing after Kenobi for Darth Vader!

Still looking forward to this figure sometime next year.

 

[matmurdock]

No real complaints with Cody so far. While his hands did start crazy tight after holding the guns for several days have helped fix that problem.

Thank you. I contacted SS for a replacement. Mine is crazy warped.

Is there any way to fix the shoulder guards?

 

[RandomHero]

Is there any way to fix the shoulder guards?

I've tried, not that I've found so far. They have straps that go under the armpit so they're removable, but it's really not possible to get them properly over the top of the chest piece. Maybe someone will figure out a mod for it but with how delicate the arms on the figure are, I don't care enough to solve the riddle.

 

[sithocan]

What about chest piece? If the belt can be lowered, chest piece may be pulled downwards.
Or maybe some type of foam can be glues to the underside of shoulder pads?

 

[Raven6009]

Holy **** what a pain in the ******* this guy is. Took me 10 minutes just to get his right forearm back in after it popped out. I'm never playing with him again. I might not even look at him because I don't want to have to fix him again.

I really wonder why none of the reviewers were experiencing the same problems.

Are the quality fluctuations so big?

 

[Wor-Gar]

So Dweeb Shoulders has actually become the biggest issue....

I have the latest batch and other than the gun being a pain in the ass to get into the hand mine is mint sturdy easy to handle and looks awesome in his O66 pose

Cody got the most dialogue from the emperor and the only trooper!

Cody in an exclusive trooper club lol

Palpatine gives the order on-screen to another clone, Captain Jag in his ARC-170, before shooting down Plo Koon. And Rex gets the order as well. We see Gree respond to it but Palpatine's directive happens before the cut back to Kashyyyk.

Off screen, I imagine at least all the clone marshal commanders got the order from Palpatine personally. Since it's probably something he was looking forward to for years and filled his black shriveled heart with glee.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I just thought the order went out to all at once, and the movie kind of jumps back in time briefly as each Commander receives their instructions.


Though it would be funny to see Palps dialing each officer with glee: *busy signal* Busy? Dammit. I'll try Gree.

Thank for the reminder I had forgotten about Jag but he still got less words than Cody lol and at least the emperor addressed Cody by his name

Rex in ROTS where?

Bly is there but I don’t remember seeing Rex especially not getting the order from the emperor.
