The only problem with that is it probably would've ended up with multiple people looking Sev or Boss or something like that, which would've been really weird to see multiple of the same character together.

[@Lawrence_Talbot]

IMO it felt weird seeing ARCs without their Kamas (the half skirts). In Legends this was perhaps the most iconic piece of their armor that made them stand out from all other clones in the GAR.

[@nathanyessler1509]

Agreed. I think their Legends design is still the most iconic/best. Hasbro actually created it and it was sent to Genndy Tartakovsky and his team for the 2003 show, and used in the other media (such as the comics with Alpha-17) as well.

[@CloneCommanderCrater1102]

When did ARCs appear without Kamas? Every version of the ARC trooper, whether they be Alpha ARCs or Promoted ARCs, has had a kama. The only ARCs that don't always have a kama are the ARC Training Program graduates (commanders and other officers like Cody, Rex, Wolffe, Bly, gree, Neyo, Bacara, etc.) and that can be forgiven since they are still regular infantry officers and not full-fledged ARC troopers.

[@russianinvader3207]

@@CloneCommanderCrater1102Huh... Rex,Wolffe,Bly and Bacara all have kamas.

[@CloneCommanderCrater1102]

@@russianinvader3207 I know, I was just using them as examples of the ARC Training Program graduates since they're all well known commanders, sorry if I didn'tmake that clear. A good number of the ARC Training Program graduates don't use kamas, such as Neyo, Gree, Oddball, Faie, etc.

[@christopherstein2024]

For me the phase 1,5 ARCs from TCW look weird. Why are they ignoring the established Phase 2 ARC Armor from Episode 3? 2:13 It looks functional and classy. Meanwhile bro is painted like a budget gaming mouse 7:01

[@MandoMarsi13]

The 41st wasn't even a Corps until TCW changed it for some reason. It was a Legion of the 9th Assault Corps. The 212th Recon Division also makes no sense since 212th was a Battalion which is a way smaller unit than a Division.

[@CloneCommanderCrater1102]

To clear up some confusion. The 41st, since its creation back around Revenge of the Sith, has always been referred to as the 41st Elite Corps, even though it's a legion within the 9th Assault Corps. This also is true for the current canon, as the 41st Elite Corps (sometimes referred to as the 41st Elite Legion) is still canonically a part of the 9th Assault Corps, so TCW didn't change anything about that. On the 212th Recon Divison not making sense, a division isn't a set unit type in the GAR. Unlike a battalion, which, in the GAR, officially consists of 661 clones of varying ranks, a division in the GAR is quite literally just a sub-unit that is separated from a larger unit and they vary in size heavily. The 332nd is a division that is somewhere around regiment size and includes the 332nd Company. The 212th Recon Divison, on the other hand, is a much smaller clone division, likely around company size. I specifically mention that division sizes differ drastically within the GAR, because unlike real world military divisions and other Star Wars faction divisions, clone divisions aren't a set unit type.

[@CloneCommanderCrater1102]

@@MandoMarsi13 No, a division is not comparable to a corps in the GAR. A division in the GAR, as I stated previously, is officially a variable type of clone unit in both Legends AND Canon. Also, if a division was the size of a corps, it would make EVERY SINGLE known clone division impossible. 332nd Division? Can't be corps sized because it's built from part of a legion. 44th Special Operations Division? You don't make an entire corps built around special operations. 38th Armored Division and 181st Armor Division? Armor units in the GAR are never corps sized, ever. 224th "Mud Jumpers" Division? It's only comparable to a legion in size at best from what's been shown of it. Literally the only known clone division that could even possibly be remotely corps sized is the 5th Fleet Security Division because it's fleet security, but even that's a stretch. Every time a CLONE division (and I must specify "clone" division, because other Star Wars factions have different meaning for divisions) is mentioned it is shown to be a type of unit that isn't remotely corps sized and usually they are shown to be smaller unit sizes. So no, divisions are not corps sized and they are variable in size in the GAR.

[@MandoMarsi13]

@@CloneCommanderCrater1102 What I said is from Wookieepedia. 332nd doesn't count since it was made by TCW. Cpt Rex was promoted to Battalion Cmndr so his unit is a Battalion. 44th was also made by TCW and also doesn't make sense since its commanding officer was Major Ozzel. Majors commanded Battalions. 224th is a Division commanded by a General so it's right. Btw the Mud Jumpers were a sub unit. The Armored Divisions also make sense idk what's the problem. The war machines require a lot of manpower to maintain and operate.

[@nathanyessler1509]

Those Alpha Class ARC Troopers were such a great design. Hasbro's design team made them, and the designs were sent to Genndy Tartakovsky for the 2003 show. In the Republic Comics, the design was reiterated through Alpha-17. It's too bad the newer games didn't make these alternate skins or a different class altogether, given their genetic superiority and training by Jango Fett. How cool would it be to play as Captain Fordo or Alpha-17?

[@CloneCommanderCrater1102]

I would've loved that, especially since it would have properly brought the Alpha ARCs back into canon.

[@HelljumperE7ZJ]

​@CloneCommanderCrater1102 now I'm not sure your view on the cano and legends divide, but when somethings not clear, I just mix and match. I personally believe the Alpha ARCs still exist in canon, but by the time of the 2008 CW, they are either dead or deserted, with few still in the GAR

The 41st Ranger Platoon were first seen in Lego form back in 2014 when they were in the Kashyyyk Trooper Battle Pack

[@CloneCommanderCrater1102]

That design actually dates back to a Hasbro one trooper action figure from 2007. The figure appeared in an Order 66 2-pack that came with the trooper and Yoda. Lego, as you said, eventually made a minifigure of that design in the 2014 Kashyyyk troopers battle pack, but that specific clone design wasn't officially named until EA's Battlefront 2 called them the 41st Ranger Platoon, before that they were just a random type of 41st trooper.

Do you mean the size of the DC-17m used by the clone commandos? Because the DC-17m has always been on the smaller side, all the way since it's introduction in Republic Commando.

It would have been nice if we got pilot skins for BF2(2017) considering how cool and unique they look. We got the Droid Pilot, all we needed was the Clone, Rebel, and Tie Pilots. Would have been extra fitting fir Supremacy when defending your ship as even the pilots would join in the defense of the ship. We got the Clone Naval Officer, so why not the Clone Pilot as well along with the Rebel and Tie Pilots to go along with the Droid Pilots?

But I can't post the link because it keeps automatically taking down my comment when I do so lol. It also featured again in the ROTS line of action figures.
