Star Wars TFs wave 6 - Clone, Cpt Rex, Vader.

These figures have been seen before, but one is in packaging that reveals it is not just another clone trooper. The AT-TE is listed as 'Captain Rex', which I'm guessing is another character from the Movies or Cartoon series. I recall Cody from the Movie, but not Rex.

Also shown is the V-19, who is still probably a 'Clone Pilot', but it's packaging isn't shown to verify it.
The Darth Vader looks like a straight repack (minus the mini-figure).

Captain Rex doesn't strike a bell with me, either. Then again, I haven't seen most of the films, anyway.

This line could potentially go on for centuries, given all the characters of the Star Wars series. We'll probably see Darth Vader's secretary before long.

Meh, never liked any of the SW:TF's and I probably never will. The bot modes for all of them suck.

I hate the fact that they look like action figures fused with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle mutagen and vehicle parts.

If they'd made the bot mode like a TF character, oh the possibilities....Imagine if they'd made the seekers as TIE Interceptors, or made Unicron the Death Star or made Megatron as Vaders TIE Bomber, I'd be all over that like white on rice.

Yeah, that's what I said when these toys first came out in 2006. But now nearly 3 years later it's evident that that's not gonna happen so there's little use in crying over spilt blue milk.

He was also in the Clone Wars movie which came out in cinemas earlier this year (now on DVD). He's also my acquisitions mascot! I wonder if anyone got the "Shattered Glass" reference I did with Rexie in my last acquisitions post...


...that's right, in the Shattered Glass universe Captain Rex is a Sith.
