Fortunately, the helmet is very nicely sculpted and stays on tightly once in place, so you never have to take it off if you don’t want to. Like Wolffe, Rex features a removable helmet, which is reasonable enough, though I can’t say that Rex’s animated design has translated all that well to the realistic styling. The articulation is definitely my favorite aspect of the new sculpt, especially the shoulders, which actually slot into the shoulder socket, rather than just pushing upward. As much as I like that old sculpt, I definitely appreciate the changed-up design here, which has sharper detailing, slightly more balanced proportions, and a much more-improved range of motion on the joints. This figure, on the other hand, uses an entirely unique sculpt. All of the prior Black Series Clone Trooper releases I’ve looked at have drawn from the same pool of parts. The figure stands 6 1/4 inches tall and he has 31 points of articulation. This Rex, like his smaller Black Series counterpart, is based on his design from the end of the Clone Wars show, as they approached the Revenge of the Sith aesthetic.

Amongst them was the focus of today’s review, Clone Captain Rex. Even before breaking that rule so many times over, I had a small few exceptions. When The Black Series launched, I was sticking to a pretty firm “no prequels” rule. He viewed military service as an honor, and he always completed his mission.” “Clone Captain Rex served the Republic during the Clone Wars, often taking orders from Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano.
