Yes!!! Those have been on my Top 25 Wishlist each year!! We need shadow people more than ever, especially if this years SWTVC March Madness winner Pong Krell is actually made! 🤘😁✌️
Well this is it We have officially have our definitive Captain Rex Figure That everybody has been asking for All we need now is Rex in his Phase 1 Armor.
It’s so satisfying that we’ve finally gotten both the definitive Phase II clone trooper *and* the definitive Captain Rex both in the same year. I really hope Hasbro goes all in with this new trooper mold for Revenge of the Sith’s 20th anniversary next year
I know right!! At last, those were long overdue and I am glad that they finally invested in the clones. I have a good feeling about some ROTS repaints, but definitely let @hasbro know that would want to see PT representation for the 20th anniversary now. The more time they have to plan the better ✌️😎😎✌️
I don't collect that many cloines but I'm excited for this one. I just really hope we get the rest of the Batch sooner than later. Hunter released a year ago and the show has ended. The writing's on the wall, and it's says "Release that shit" in aurebesh!!! Let's get it, Hasbro!
Hahahaha it's 100% written like that on the wall #FinishThe99 cmon Hasbro! Hopefully we can see them soon, but for now I am happy to see a decent Rex added to the line 👌😎😎🤘
Overall the figure looks great, but one thing that niggles me is the animated style belt and the cod piece, I'll be modifying mine when it arrives. I'm 100% with you on the bad batch, it's ridiculous how we've only got Hunter, I've just built a custom cx-2 clone operative using 3D printed parts from Coruscant customs on Etsy (video on my channel coming soon) and I was going to build crosshair in the same way, but the parts are a little too out of scale compared to TVC hunter...so I've ordered another hunter whose armour is mostly the same as crosshairs and I'll change out the differing parts with 3D resin parts from the kit I bought. Watch this space😉 Nice review 👍🏻
Yeah I've been hearing a lot of that, and I agree that a live action look is best. 👊😎🤘 I'm pretty sure the crotch is supposed to have been glued in place. If you examine the P2 Clone 4 Pack figures and peel away at that tooling, it seems like they were properly glued together. Not sure if this was intentional or not, but seems like an easy fix. Whoa that's cool man, I have been seeing some neat customs of the operatives. Also #FinishThe99 cmon Hasbro!
@@ToysAreTheWay yeah, the cod piece on the andor and 4 packs is part of the belt as well, but as you say, they're all glued in place properly. I've got a spare belt from a custom build that's realistic looking, I'll be using that.
Thank you and anytime!! Thanks for watching, and of course! I want to brainstorm a proper weathering technique for this figure, but when I execute it I will definitely share with all of you. 🤘😁✌️
Excellent Review! I was lucky to find Rex in my most recent Toy Hunt video to GameStop! I always enjoy your channel. Your collection is most impressive. Great Video😎👍👍
Yeah I just got my Rex from Game Stop 2 days ago and Leia and R2 and I got my Vader's today ( Saturday ) and they are awesome!! I'll get the stormtroopers in a few days along with Luke and the night troopers this month as well can't wait I really like Game Stop I also just got today the shadow trooper and Luke ( Dagobah Landing ) great video brother keep up the great work
@@ToysAreTheWay actually my Vader's came in on Thursday along with Leia R2 and Rex but they said I couldn't take Vader until Saturday because of the street date that's so stupid talking about 2 days but what can you do
Finally! Captain Rex has been welcomed into our clientele twice already but we needed this guy. 208 is fine for hanging with Hunter & 182 looks great when teamed with Fox/Gree/Cody. We are still waiting for Captain Vaughn but in the meantime, the rest of the 501st will offer great company! Check out what's new at Uncle Owen's BBQ...Compliments to the Chef😉 ua-cam.com/video/skzIK_-gkc8/v-deo.html Thank you & enjoy!
That's totally fair, I get it's a practical feature. But it's just not practical as a whole since they are BEYOND inconsistent with the execution and scaling of those. I personally hate when the helmet is horribly oversized, and this way eliminates that. ✌️😎😎✌️
Haha and for democracy 😅. Now I just need to army build some clankers. Awesome review, thanks for showing him posed up with the new 501st from the 4 pack. Here to hoping hasbro release one on a single card as well.
Average at best, but still better than the older ones. Why did they remove the amo pouches from his belt?! All the new Phase I/II Clones on the new sculpt have amo pouches on the belt, and on the much anticipated Rex figure they go and remove them. WTH….🤦🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
It's an ODD move for sure, I would have really like to see the same belt used, or one sculpted to match that. It really would have made him look better. I'll probably customize his belt for that option 👌😁
🤘😁✌️ Thanks man!! It did, and I agree that it looks odd. I think it is supposed to have glue there? If you examine the P2 Clone 4 Pack figures and peel away at that tooling, it seems like they were properly glued together. Maybe Hasbro opted not to use glue so that the Kama would not get stuck, or allow us to customize it?
Ngl it looks hideous in my opinion. The disconnected crotch plate and inconsistent mix of live action and cartoon accessories ruin it for me. They could've based this figure off of his Ahsoka tv show appearance.
I mean, the only animated accessory is the belt. The pauldron, while it comes from the animated series, IS what Rex's pauldron looks like in live action.
I wouldn't say it's all that bad. The belt isn't my favorite and the crotch section should have and can be glued down if need be. Due to the way the Kama goes on, and interacts with the belt tooling they opted to go that route. I do agree that the closest to live action the better. But for the most part this Rex is a BIG improvement. ✌️😎😎✌️
Yep! I like the pauldron, and I know the helmet is also not perfect. They should have modeled it off of the current Phase 2 troops we just got, as there's details that differ on the back between the two. Not a deal breaker for me though 🤘😁✌️
I think the cauldron looks ok tbh, but the crotch piece is def not ideal, but due to the belt tooling and getting the Kama on I see why it was done. Still doesn't take a lot of points off for me, as you can just glue it down. Yeah the name is weird, they easily could have put it on a Clone Wars Siege of Mangalore card and it would have made sense. We need Clone Force 99 on BB cards, not another Rex. ✨🤘😎🤘✨
And also his one hand if your looking at the front of the figure the left hand his thumb is just like the Sith trooper it's way to short like a nub that doesn't hold weapons very well I'm really tired of hasbro doing crap like this
No es demasiado difícil. Usa agua muy caliente y mete a Rex en el baño. Luego puedes abrirle la cintura y quitarle la falda. Tengo algunos videos en el canal usando el método del agua caliente, como Darth Revan ✌️😎😎
Now we need some Umbaran soldiers to fight😂
I’d buy 10+
Yes!!! Those have been on my Top 25 Wishlist each year!! We need shadow people more than ever, especially if this years SWTVC March Madness winner Pong Krell is actually made! 🤘😁✌️
Same here! I would easily buy 10+ of them for a Darkness on Umbra 501st display! ✨🙌😎🙌✨
Just got one today at Gamestop. Love the swappable head ! Agree, lets get the rest of the Bad Batch.
Nice!! Seems like a lot of people are finding him at Gamestop, and heck yeah #FinishThe99 ✨🙌😎🙌✨
Well this is it We have officially have our definitive Captain Rex Figure That everybody has been asking for All we need now is Rex in his Phase 1 Armor.
It feels good to finally have a decent Rex!! I agree that we need Phase 1 next!! I want to see more of the Clones in their P1 looks ✨🙌😎🙌✨
@ToysAreTheWay Yup especially Commander Cody

The clone wars Rex in his animated version has the perfect sized blaster pistols for this new Rex.
Oh intersting! I wasn't aware of these on the CW figure, but will have to look into those, thanks for the tip!! 👌😎🤘

Nice review, thanks once again for sharing your thoughts 👌
Please could you show the results of your weathering after you have applied your touch? 🤔

Thanks man!! I really appreciate it, this is the way! That was a neat video and good luck with grad school, I know that can be some hefty work ✨🤘😁🤘✨

@@ToysAreTheWay omg me too those are pretty much the ones that I'm most excited about

I hope we get a Captain Vaughn soon!! Would really make for a great addition to our Siege of Mangalore displays ✨🤘😁🤘✨
I prefer the swappable plastic helmets that you can just put over the figure’s head than having to swap out the entire head like here. This way sucks
That's totally fair, I get it's a practical feature. But it's just not practical as a whole since they are BEYOND inconsistent with the execution and scaling of those. I personally hate when the helmet is horribly oversized, and this way eliminates that. ✌️😎😎✌️
I have 3 already too lol
Hahaha excellent! For the Republic 🤘😁✌️

I rather make custom removable helmet I did it once I can do it again
Whatever works best man! ✌️😎😎✌️
Great review as always. Did yours have the weird floating crotch piece? Mine and Bossk's Bounty's look very odd.
🤘😁✌️ Thanks man!! It did, and I agree that it looks odd. I think it is supposed to have glue there?

Yeah they are inconsistent at times with these hands, hinges and trigger fingers.
Puedes hacer un video sobre cómo quitarle la capa a Rex por favor
No es demasiado difícil. Usa agua muy caliente y mete a Rex en el baño. Luego puedes abrirle la cintura y quitarle la falda. Tengo algunos videos en el canal usando el método del agua caliente, como Darth Revan ✌️😎😎
