Back before they put purchase limits on things, I'd pick up one with just about every order (usually to hit the free shipping mark, which was pretty low at the time). No idea how many Hydra, A.I.M. and Hellfire peeps I have, but it's a lot. Then they ruined it by putting limits of either 3 or 5 on the Skrulls, Ninjas, and Shield Agents. Like, what good is 5 Skrulls? You had a beautiful thing going and you boned it, Hasbro.
Thus concludes my rant for the day.
Those troopers were great and I miss them something fierce. Still need to get a couple of extra Skrulls at least but the aftermarket price is stupid, which rather proves the point that they needed to make more of them... I know they did a couple of SW-type packs during the windowless packaging era but even those were 'vs' 2-packs. Would have loved to see them expand the 'troop builder' program to all their collector lines.

This is kind of neat and kind of silly at the same time. Fantastic for someone who just wants one figure with a ton of customization (photographers, I guess?). Ridiculous for army building, which is generally the central point of clone figures.

The notion isn't bad, I'll grant you that, but for over twice as much as a single figure when it's only a few extra accessories? Good luck to anyone looking to army build this.
That's actually pretty slick...I just wish the armor had some color/color options
Just FYI, rumor around the barracks is this set is going to cost $58.............
Is is it possible after like 5 years they finally fixed the helmet to cover the chin?
Another Clone Trooper! Whaaat, the most anticipated, a Clone trooper, no way is there a never a new one every time Star Wars figures get a reveal..Never in my day. Imagine the creative process.
Star Wars BS, B puts the boring in Series..Continue looking over new fun characters, in place of Clone/Trooper/Storm guy 10078683282.
