Toyguide Update: CW57 Special Ops Clone Trooper
The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with the addition of the Special Ops Clone Trooper (CW57) from The Clone Wars Collection.
PROS: A decent figure for the most part, nothing earth-shattering in terms of innovation but he’s well articulated and accessorized.
CONS: The color of the plastic used for this figure doesn’t match the Toys”R”Us exclusive Special Operations Clone Trooper (aka Commander Blackout) when in all actuality, it probably should.
Head to the toyguide for the full image gallery and to judge for yourself whether this figure is worth adding to your collection.
You can also weigh in with your impressions on the figures we add to our toyguide on facebook and in our forums.
