Sideshow Captain Rex Premium Format 2024

I really don’t see why anyone would get this “exclusive” over the phase 2. The weathering and markings go really well with the base and lighting effects.

I’d really question if they even add in the range-finder. Wouldn’t they have to retool the helmet and possibly packaging?

I think it is for the real psycho clone fans like myself lol. I'd get both. Rex is my favorite SW character as well.

I agree though the P2 version is superior version, Rex is too clean, even without the rangefinder.

I just don't think I can budget this, 2 PFs of the same character at $1k just isn't feasible for me at the moment.

They photoshopped the range finder in

I get that Rex lights up, but how in the hell is this nearly 1k and the new Vampire Lust $680, which is arguably 2 PFs?!

No idea, I’m assuming the engineering that was needed for Rex to appear to be flying and then the added light up.

Phase 1 Rex is still up, looks like I don’t have to rush to make a decision.

I've decided I'm out on this one. If they do a 1/4 Fett statue this well, I'd probably get sucked in at this price point but I just "like", don't "love" Rex, so this falls into the unnecessary category. Space is becoming an equal factor to $ and at this point this is a space eater. Now, if I decide to sell a couple of other statues to make a 2 for 1 trade, I might put this one back on the table...

Well, this didn't age well. I've been re-watching Clone Wars and then went and looked at the pictures again. Pre-ordered. I'm soooo weak!

Just watched and I must admit, this turned out solid.

I'm happy with how much like the proto it ended up being like. Being a trooper probably made it easier for them too.

That does look great!

Glad I caved and ordered this one!
