Rebelscum.com: VC19 - Clone Commander Cody - 2010

CLONE COMMANDER CODY

Revenge of the Sith

Beyond being a part of the very first wave of Prequel Trilogy figures packaged on black and silver Classic Kenner cards, The Vintage Collection VC19 Clone Commander Cody isn't anything too spectacular. Granted, this repainted figure based on the 2009 The Legacy Collection figure of the same name has had its belt painted and assembled correctly.

The second wave of The Vintage Collection was revealed at the 2010 San Diego Comic-Con. With the exception of a single Star Wars (A New Hope) figure that we've always wanted on a Kenner card, this assortment mainly focused on the characters from Revenge Of The Sith, marking the first time anything other than the Original Trilogy was represented on a Kenner Vintage card. The Assortment included Darth Sidious in his brown robes, Darth Vader as he appeared on Mustafar, Sandtrooper with a white Sergeant pauldron, the clean Phase II Clone Trooper, repacked Obi-Wan Kenobi, General Grievous with soft goods cloak, the definitive Magnaguard and the (yawn) repainted Clone Commander Cody. Wave two began shipping in September 2010.

All eight figures in this wave was available on both regular and foil cards.

U.S. Card Variations

There are two card back variations for the regular edition U.S. VC19 Clone Commander Cody. The code below works like this: F = Card Front, B = Card Back, FS = Card Front Sticker, BS = Card Back Sticker, DS = Date Stamp

F1.2 B1.1 FS1.1 BS(N/A) DS01761 - "Original figures in packaging from 1970's, 1980's, 1990's, and 2000's illustrated here are not available." text on cardback. Rocket firing Boba Fett mail-away offer sticker (missing from the card front in the photo, purchased as an error), dim Clone Commander Cody photo on card front.

F2.2 B1.1 FS1.1 BS(N/A) DS02631 - Corrected vibrant color Clone Commander Cody photo on card front.

Released simultaneously, Hasbro produced special foil version for each figure in this wave of The Vintage Collection action figures. As with all the foil cards in the first wave, all of the wave two foil cards were short packed and boasted much smaller print runs. The Foil to Regular production ratio was roughly one to every ten. This short-lived premium chase packaging ended with this assortment.

North American Tri-Logo Card Variations

There were three versions of the VC19 Clone Commander Cody sold in Canada.

The regular edition card with the starburst Boba Fett offer sticker and the order form.

The regular edition card with the order form but no starburst Boba Fett offer sticker. This version was only found at Toys "R" Us at the end of 2010.

The foil card featured the Boba Fett offer order form, but didn't have the starburst sticker.

By the time the second assortment was released the "Bobba Fett" text error was corrected. To date and based on date stamps, there have been no documented examples of the error sticker showing up on any of the figures in this wave.
