Had they come with ARC gears, that would have been an instant PO for me.

Maybe SSC will offer some sort of accessory set to updade them and Rex down the road or custom parts will be available somehow. Until then, it's a pass for me.
I guarantee you that when you see a Phase II Rex around you'll see a Phase II Echo and Fives. They are recognizable characters from the series so they'll be visited as many times as will be sellable. I'm glad they went Phase I over Phase II because had it been the other way we've never gotten this way I think.
I hope once they do an ARC, then they pump it for all its worth like they do the clones.
I'd sell clones to make space, I'd place ARC's right below Stormtroopers and Trooper characters (Bly, Gree, Ganch, Wolff, etc..) for my favorite troops.
Colt, Fives, Blitz, bring em all on.
Not before Alpha!!!
My favorite clone before Cody...

Didn't Alpha become Rex for the Clone Wars series? Could have sworn I read that somewhere. Something to do with Alpha alliteration becoming too confusing?
If they keep this up.....
I'll never get to buy anything else other than a 1/6 scale Star Wars figure.....
According to the Star Wars: The Clone Wars DVD's commentary, the creators at first had decided to put in Alpha as the Clone Wars series' prime clone character. However, Lucas objected because his inclusion would make too much of an alliteration (Anakin, Artoo, Ahsoka, and now Alpha), so a different clone character, Captain Rex, was created.
Heh. I'm Already there. I skipped a few over the years to branc hout into some Hot toys figures... and i regret missing hammerhead, Lando and Greedo :/
Me too. Really sorry I missed out on Greedo.
I made a deal with myself to only buy aliens or helmeted characters from Sideshow and human sculpts from Hot Toys. It's worked out so far but I caved and PO'd Malgus. I'm really impressed with the proto sculpt (both normal and battle scarred). Hopefully the production sculpt doesn't change too much, if at all.
Modern sideshow sculpts are closing the gap with hot toys.
To be fiar, hot toys early sculpts were pretty abysmal too.
