Toyguide Update: SL12 Clone Commander Cody

SL12_cody_preview

The Yakface Toyguide updates resume with our next entry in the 3-3/4″ Saga Legends line. Today we take a look at Clone Commander Cody (SL12).

PROS: Despite this being a kid-targeted figure, with its limited POA and accessories, Hasbro managed to release a perfectly adequate iteration of Cody – complete with all-new parts (save for the legs) and a relatively tight deco application. I find it surprising, and welcome, that they decided to tool up a new torso and include a removable jetpack. He looks great displayed with the 2013 Saga Legends Obi-Wan Kenobi counterpart.

CONS: Again, this figure isn’t for everyone due to its limited five points of articulation and the fact that the orange used for the unit designation doesn’t match the orange colored 212th Battalion Clone Trooper from the Mission Series: Utapau set. There is a slight bit of deflection in regards to the shoulder antenna but it’s nothing a brief soak in hot water won’t remedy.

Head to the toyguide for the full image gallery and to judge for yourself whether this figure is worth adding to your collection.
