Comments:
Clone trooper armor is marked with clor-coded flashes. At the beginning of the Clone Wars, the colors signify rank (red for captains, blue for lieutenants, green for sergeants). By the end of the war, the flashes come to identify specialized units such as the Galactic Marines and Shock Troopers.
Points of Interest:
Clone Trooper Officer is a repaint of the figure included in the Clone Trooper Troop Builder set, which was based on the original 2003 CLONE WARS Clone Trooper 03-50.
There are several planned variations of the Clone Trooper Officer figure:
- Captain (red stripes)
- Commander (yellow stripes)
- Sergeant (green stripes)
- Lieutenant (blue stripes)
There is a variation in the placement of the dots on the figure's chest. They are higher up on the intial releases, and have been moved down per Lucasfilm's request.
It appears that the helmets of all variations have the fully-painted stripes, although some may have slipped through production. Stay tuned!
Early versions of this figure did not have the "Fans' Choice" sticker. This has since been added.
