1/6 Hot Toys - TMS 023 - The Clone Wars: 501st Battalion Clone Trooper (DELUXE VERSION)

[Chronos1919]

Should receive mine next Tuesday. Hopefully Ahsoka and Rex aren't far behind!

These figures… Go great in pairs. Probably even better with 12, like some here.

What clone do you think we'll see next? I bet 212th are most probable.

I think the 212th would go with the General Kenobi pre-order that hopefully goes up soon (or ever), kinda like how the 501st went up with Ahsoka.

If not the 212th, has to be a plain shiny.

I got two in today from Sideshow and I opened one up to check it out. It was a little strange getting this before Rex. The ratcheted body is nice but also kinda frustrating because it somewhat limits posing. The hand selection is absolutely annoying and ridiculous.

The deluxe comes with so much stuff. I love the phase one helmet despite being a bit oversized. Three more are incoming, these will be much more fun when Anakin, Rex, and Ahsoka finally arrive.

Quick pose and pic before I get him into the actual display case with Cody. Lotta fun

I, for some reason, feel threatened.

501st Deluxe quick shots...

Quietly hoping for 501st Arc Troopers in the future with portraits, and just because ...

My 2nd one arrived today and just as he arrived I got the notification that the one of my Coruscant Guards are processing on Thursday.

My first two deluxes are processing on Thursday. Cody is ready for some company.

Got my deluxe from SS yesterday with the correct name plate.

Gotta at least get me one deluxe to go with my regular. I‘m diggin that backpack.

Maybe even..2 deluxes.

Just a thought.

The backpack on mine houses the busted up foot that came with it originally. I broke the other foot the other day. So I might as well just put the replacement foot I got from sideshow in that backpack because Hot Toys made the stupid decision to sculpt the foot as two different pieces connected by a very small peg that can pop out when the lower leg armor crashes into it.

The armor should be magnetic so it isn't sliding around so easily while posing.

Looks amazing but why does Anakin look shorter than the 501st? Is he not on a stand in that pic?

Looks like he is on some kind of stand but not the HT one. Looks to me like one of the old school oval stands

Fully unboxed the two I ordered from Sideshow. Both have the incorrectly spelled nameplate so probably just a luck of the draw deal. The most annoying thing about this release by far is the hands. I don't know how a high end toy company like HT could have tested out these hands with the included weapons and said "yeah ship these out, we are done here". I don't remember ever getting a set of hands more mismatched with the included accessories, absolutely ridiculous.

Otherwise I mostly like the figures.

I just hope they won’t do an order 66 on that glass shelf.

Got mine in on Monday. I like it. The EP 3 helmet looks a bit small though. I have him next to Anakin and Cody. I think Cody stands out more.
