    lol this is priceless. It is actually really cool; a modern take on clone sharpie-ing.

      Exactly haha; I remember the days of custom decaling clones with sharpies…

    The Rex torso kinda looks like a early 2000's classic lego clone torso due to it's "simplicity"

      I believe they did that on purpose because when all the clones transferred to Phase 2 armor, Rex was the only one who continued to use the Phase 1 chest plate due to its durability

    I got This minifig in the set it came with when it was first released and it's always been one of my favorites but I had no idea how much it was worth! I'm definitely keeping that one safe and in good condition now that I know!

    I consider myself very lucky finding a mint one on Facebook Marketplace for the equivalent of $13. The mum of some kid that had seemingly only ever built their sets to leave them on a shelf was selling a little bin of assembled sets, in which I spotted the figure. I asked for it alone and got my request approved. Spaghetti legs during the wait for her approval.

    I have had phase 2 Captain Rex since it was released, and actually still have the entire set kept in a plastic tub (except for the $2 Obi Wan lol), and somehow kept it in mint condition even though I obtained it as a child. I recently found out how expensive it was, and I'm going to be keeping it a lot safer now. This torso looks pretty good, but the breastplate section looks a little asymmetrical.

    If you are just a collector and love arts and crafts. I would suggest AV figures. The captain rex decals they have are pretty cheap and soo detailed. Its around $6 I think. If you don't like decals, then go to clone army customes for their printed figures. It would cost around $30 for the full captain rex. Both options have more detail with full rap around printing. AVs rex has the potential to scratch off since they use decals and not pad printing.

    the cost of travelling from Australia to USA and back is probably going to cost more than buying the authentic figure, so unless they have one in Aus i'm outta luck haha, but still awesome regardless
