PROS: The added articulation in the legs and soft goods “skirt” make this the near-perfect revision to the prior figure from 2009. Nice touch supplying the lightsaber from his slain former padawan.
CONS:Despite having a phenomenal head sculpt, its design prevents any real head movement/positioning.

PROS: A nice repaint of the basic battle droid mold. The figure has a nice silver/metallic wash in areas in addition to the yellow commander markings.
CONS: Legs lack articulation (knee and ankle) that would really help in the overall stability and playability of the figure. The legs also warp very easily making the use of a display stand almost mandatory. Finally, and extra joint in the arms (recycled from the Battle at B’Omarr Monastery sculpt) would/should have been utilized here as well.

PROS: One of the best figures in the entire Star Wars line, not just the Clone Wars segment. She is wonderfully articulated, accessorized and captures the unique design style of the animated series perfectly.
CONS: The antenna on her head is a little wonky and too close to the center of her head. A bit of silver/gray paint would have gone a long way toward improving it.

PROS: The 2009 version’s belt snafu has been fixed as well as the paint detail on the antenna, making this the ultimate Commander Cody. Looks fantastic on the Vintage cardback.
CONS: Jetpack falls off with the slightest touch.

PROS: Nice upgrade to the prior TLC BD25 version, the cape is great addition as is the revised deco. Well accessorized too.
CONS: The mold is very rubbery, making prolonged posing a delicate/frustrating balancing act. No foot peg holes in the feet to accept a display stand. New articulated hands pop off very easily.

PROS: Although we’ve been inundated with this figure sculpt for 5 years, it is still a solid mold without being overtly outdated. Nice likeness and well accessorized.
CONS: A better figure is available in the 2010 Saga Legends line for $1 cheaper. The knee joints suffer from “ostrich syndrome” and the ankles are distracting with the contrasting joint inserts.

PROS: Finally, we’ve received the figure that was originally intended to be included with the Clone Wars Jabba’a Palace Battle Pack from 2008. A great looking figure all around and well accessorized.
CONS: Lack of articulation in the legs limits poses available and the pre-posed leg positioning tends to make this figure unstable. A rather generic figure for an exclusive and the $10+ pricepoint might hamper this figure’s sell-through at retail.

PROS: A nice super super-articulated plain clone trooper for our collections. Keep an eye out for the versions that have the belt flipped in the correct orientation.
CONS: Missing paint apps on the helmet make him look plainer than he already is. Helmet is also prone to yellowing/discoloration. Light in the accessory department – a spare DC-15A blaster rifle would have been a nice extra. Wonky hip articulation doesn’t add a whole lot in terms of “fun factor”. Some versions have the belt assembled upside down. You can get a better ROTS clone trooper in the Saga Legends line cheaper and you get extra weapons and a stand.
