Great list Lukenessmonster!! For me a figures media accuracy is very important, second only to me having some form of representation even if it isn't the best ( Poor Poe ) But knowing whats wrong with a sculpt or it's paint apps really helps with the decision on pulling the trigger. Thanks!
The red arc trooper is exactly that. An arc trooper. I don’t know why everyone clings to the artwork they used. Every named clone has gotten that name on the packaging; Rex, Cody, Appo, Fox, Gree, Bly etc. So you’re 100% right. This isn’t Fordo.
Love the video Luke love the evaluation of the clones in the black series we really have come a long way to them being some of worst figures to now the clones being some of the best but that’s just my opinion
As far as articulation goes, throw some 2020 or 2023 Clone legs on a Rex body and you pretty much have perfection in my opinion. I think if they would have went with this combo instead of the old legs and new upper body on the Elite Clone trooper, it would have been the best clone they ever made. Paint apps excluded of course.
I only have the Phase I Clone Trooper V.3 and even the 2018 Captain Rex. I have to admit that the 2024 Phase I Clone Trooper is a good figure thanks to the 2023 Clone Trooper tooling, though Rex is still the best, because even though his figure was made before the 2023 Clone Trooper tooling came along, he still looks impressive.
The articulation on the Captain Rex is not all that great. There are videos aplenty showing that they had to cut certain areas of the figure just to attain better articulation.

rex-bly remains goated
My number 1 personally is the new Aliexpress Phase 1 Captain Rex. Not official, but everything I would want from a black series figure
Solid list my top 10
1. Rex
2. Appo
3. 332nd 2 pack
4. Fives
5. Echo target
6. White phase 2
7. White phase 1
8. Bad batch echo
9. Commander bly
10. 501st phase 1
It's wild how far clones have come. I remember getting the first version and being so disappointed in the articulation
Love the video Luke love the evaluation of the clones in the black series we really have come a long way to them being some of worst figures to now the clones being some of the best but that’s just my opinion
Hopefully the rumored phase one Rex will dethrone bad batch Rex next year
Thank you for the list 😊

My number one would be the umbra operative or Cody
Great list, that top 10 is 🔥 - I saw #2 at a collectors show recently and didn’t pick him up. Doh!
sorry but Bly is the better trooper than Rex.

Are they releasing a phase 1 gree standalone ? I thought he had came in a 2 pack. The video referenced gree phase 1 Coming this year
@@judsonrodriguez8328 no they are releasing the phase 2 gree apart of a 2 pack
I respect &: understand the work you put in this vid,but clones bore me
