1/6 Sideshow Captain Rex Phase II

[Jaycepticon]

Hope they do Captain Fordo and his ARC troopers, thought they wouldve been done by now.

Yeah, Echo & Fives, Fordo and his troops, even commander Colt.

Crap, I never watched the clone wars... yet. Do the echoe and fives set for a may release aren't going to be the final set SS releases?

No one knows for sure, but it's not if they make them, it's when. It's inevitable.

I'm in!

I hope they don't release Delta Squad because I'm 99% of out room on my shelves.

The big problem with Fives and Echo is that Echo died before getting his Phase II armor, he had the Phase 1.5 armor on for the 2 episodes he was an ARC trooper for before being killed, than Fives got the full upgrade in Season 4. So if we get them, Fives will probably be in his full armor first seen on Umbara while Echo will have the 1.5 armor seen in Season 3, same with Commander Colt.

Even though I'm not a huge clone guy, I'd probably get this. The only thing is, Sideshow would have to create an entirely new helmet. We all know they'd much rather milk the helmet sculpts they've already made.

I didn't even know that, what was different? Fives looked exactly the same to me during the Umbara arc than he did during the Citadel one.

Ok you just answered my next question. The phases are their armor upgrades from the military. I was thinking this whole time it was Sideshow's way of making new helmets.

Should I grab the echoe and fives from sideshow? To go with the rest I own and will be purchasing?

the forthcoming Echo and Five set will blend with any phase I trooper you own.

Captain Rex, even though labelled as phase II and perfectly compatible with phase II clones is in fact wearing a hybrid version of his helmet closer to the transition phase 1.5. That is if you care about TCW canon of course.

I guess I don't honestly. What would bother me is putting clones with storm troopers ; p

Its up to you, as a CW fan as well as a 501st fan, this is on my must have list. These guys are going to look insanely good with Rex and the new 501st troopers.

The difference is the standard armor that really isn't that recognizable but the helmet is the big issue. The Phase 1.5(demo armor for Phase II) has a fin on the top of the helmet like the Phase I armor while the Phase II armor is obviously the completed version we see in Season 4 + and ROTS and in the first few years of the Empire before clones were being phased out because of their individuality. There are a couple of small details that most casual viewers and maybe even big followers of the show won't notice but the fin is the big part of it, the fin was completely discarded in Phase II armor for a more round top.

That is completely your choice, they'll go perfect with Phase I clones like the old Phase I Rex and the Phase I helmet of the 501st trooper coming out.

I'm a little reluctant to pick them up because that armor was shown only once while Echo was an ARC trooper for 2 episodes and Fives has around 10 episodes worth of the ARC Trooper armor. I'm also cautious of double dipping because the separate releases for ARC Trooper armor for both Fives and Echo are bound to come out, too much of a money maker for Sideshow. Probably depend how my money situation is when they're released. It really is up to you though, they'll look great with Phase I Rex honestly.

I nearly missed this! I better come back here more often!

ADDED: Definitely preordering!

 

[Darth Snoopy]

This is cool news!

My wallet is going to hate me now.

Fives needs to come out especially after watch the first few episode of Star Wars The Clone Wars Season 6 on Netflix where the episodes revolve around him and his actions really.

Spoiler

yeah i was totally bummed out by how he went out

 

[Tee-Kay]

"ARC" Fives, Phase 1.5 Echo and Phase 2.0 Tup would be nice additions but i'd really be interested in a non armored clone wearing their training fatigues or medical wears.

 

[AJEswim]

I feel like that could be an exclusive like when you either buy through sideshow or a San Diego Comic Con one. Oh I completely agree Wah.

 

[JonEl]

I did a custom clone wolffe in a republic naval uniform (the ones that they wear on the starships). And I would definitely add more non-armored clones if they were an option

 

[mosaicsquare]

I wonder if they will redo Commander Cody...
