The full Cad Bane figure comes with a clone head and no Bane head so you have to buy Denal to complete the Bane figure.
Marketing strategy. Lol.

No the next clone comes with his hand and a boot. It's a build a figure!!
Too bad all the clones didn't, I'd have a damn army of bounty hunters by now!
I've often wondered if the BAF strategy would work in 1:6 with certain figures. Like, could HT have included an arm, leg, head, etc of Iron Man with each Avenger? Or Three Zero throw in zombie heads, arms, legs, etc that would allow you to build a zombie with the Walking Dead figures? Not the best examples, but there are times when I've thought a BAF would be the way to go for certain characters that might not otherwise get made due to various reasons.
But back on topic, I can't imagine a full Cad Ban isn't in the works. Its possibly the body that might be holding them up. He was super skinny, but again, that could have been due to the animation style. Its possible the armored body used on the clones would be skinny enough for his build without all that armor hiding the thinness of the body.
I'm just glad we're getting Cad in some form. Some are thrilled for this for the Clone, but I'm thrilled for Cad in this case. I'm pretty much cloned out at this point.

I'm sure we'll see a full Cad Bane figure, but it won't be previewed until this one starts to ship so they don't lose a bunch of orders.

Then why release this if a Cad Bane figure is in the works? Couldn't you just pop that head onto this Clone, I don't get the theory on this one all.

Because the full figure isn't ready yet?
To sell us the same character twice.

Yeah maybe, maybe they want to get some feedback on the sculpt to see if they should bother doing a full Cad Bane.

I think his head needs to be a little smaller and his nose area needs to be a little bigger. I know SS likes to make things more realistic and I have no doubt they looked at the New Hope Duros for reference but I don't see Cad Bane in this head sculpt. He also needs to be a darker shade of blue.

I like the head sculpt.. just wish the Clone helmet didn't have that 'visor' ..I've never liked that look, it really spoils the lines.. unless its a removable accessory to the helmet?
Also "they" sculpted him some manly chin...
Even tho no Duros in any form of SW media ever had non-flat chin

Assuming it's just a repainted version of Bly's Phase 1, it won't be removable
OK, well if I get it, I'm almost certainly going to display with the Cad Bane head sculpt anyway.. I'm getting a strong 'Clint Eastwood' vibe off that.

I see what are saying in regards to his defined features. However, Rex and Wolffe are two examples that SS isn't aiming to reproduce the look the animated series showed us. Those two are full on human sculpts with no "CG animated" highlights. Bane won't be any different. While they did make his head a tad bit too tall, I don't think SS ever wanted the sharp features his face has, they wanted to go for a more lifelike look. I do agree the color of blue is off.
