Toyguide Update: Stealth Ops Clone Trooper (TRU Exclusive)
The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with the addition of the Toys”R”Us Exclusive Stealth Operations Clone Trooper from The Clone Wars Collection.
PROS: Nice, crisp deco on the helmet and shoulder bells, even the soles of the boots are painted. For an exclusive, the price is comparable to the standard basic figure price. (Even cheaper if purchased during the current 2 for $10.99 promotion.)
CONS: Should have been designated as “Blackout” as identified by LFL and The Clone Wars Episode Guide. A bit light on accessories for a clone and maybe under articulated for some collectors as it uses the divisive “Stone” body.
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.

HasbroToyShop Has Its Revenge on Collectors
As you are probably painfully aware by now, HasbroToyShop this morning placed the SDCC exclusives up for sale on their site, including the Revenge of the Jedi Death Star Figure Pack. Needless to say, the site couldn’t handle the rush of traffic to order this and the other exclusives, forcing many to miss out on this highly sought after piece. Couple this latest snafu with the frustration collectors are having finding new product in general and you have the perfect storm for breaking the Tauntaun’s back. Collectors in forums and Facebook and Twitter are voicing their disgust. Let’s hope that Hasbro and HasbroToyShop gets the message (1-800-224-4438).
