Hot Toys Captain Rex The Clone Wars Unboxing & Review

I like how the “mouth piece” is smaller so thats actually accurate to captain rex’s helmet it is very impresive most impresive

CT-7567 looks glorious! The live-action interpretation of his sculpt is nothing less than perfect IMO. Loads of accessories that can be shared with other 501st troopers were a great touch. Give us Ahsoka and those two will be front and center of my SW display

[@JustinsCollection]

Damn right he does! I heard Ahsoka may be coming out very soon!

The jet-pack he comes with is a Death Watch one…he borrowed one for the Siege of Mandalore. Great Review!

[@JustinsCollection]

Oh nice!

[@MrLeary73]

I went back and looked at season 7 when Anakin goes and commits a war crime when they are under the bridge and it clearly this one. Comparing to the other troopers who also have jet packs it’s much dark and has that same color scheme. It just may have been more noticeable in the light on mandalore but this is for sure the same jet pack before mandalore.

[@goose_42]

4:42 it's a swing back stock. In the clone wars there are a few scenes where you see the clones using it as a stock.

[@JustinsCollection]

Nice!

[@JasonSmith-ee7zq]

Just like the Sterling submachine gun the Stormtrooper's (and later clone's) blasters were based on!

[@JedhaPatrol]

I’d definitely recommend more clones 😎😬

[@SavageKermie]

I’m hoping for more Clone Commanders.

[@JustinsCollection]

Haha YOU would 😉

[@aidangroessl375]

Technically Rex is an ARC trooper though, so his armor being similar in some ways makes sense. This is why he's allowed to customize it so dramatically compared to some other clones.

[@JustinsCollection]

Oh cool!

[@jackmiller3354]

You are correct

[@_SWFB]

he aint an arc trooper

[@mortalwound2945]

[@BigBadMadDog.]

OH.MY.GOD!!! He came out incredible!! I really hope Sideshow starts shipping ASAP

I really hope that the cross-compatible macrobinoculars means they have Commander Bly on the cards. I love my old SIdeshow one, but I wouldn't mind an update!

[@JustinsCollection]

You're going to freaking love it!

[@bruiserbrown9258]

I think I personally would have preferred the animated Rex head, however the amount of detail they put into this love action alternative is stunning.

[@JustinsCollection]

Oh ok

[@werecam56]

I believe the reason his armor looks greenish is because it's more aged and weathered than even someone like Cody's who's seen quite a bit of battle himself. Rex's armor is even older than Cody's he kept his armor from phase 1 and welded the pieces of the phase 2 armor he liked to it.

[@JustinsCollection]

Oh ok!

[@lewis17297]

Awesome review as always! Just a note - The way the pauldron is painted is exactly the same as the prototype, so exchanging it wouldn't help - A bit of black paint should though!

[@JustinsCollection]

Oh ok!

[@JustinsCollection]

Thanks!

[@rrrmmmm5059]

Hi Justin! Well, this is the figure we’ve all been waiting fir. This is such a perfect figure! It has all the specific things we’ve come to expect in this figure but for me the body type and head sculpt are the exact replica of Morrison. So overall I have to say Temura from the very beginning was the perfect person for the original clone. His overall image has become so important to Star Wars and the fact that he’s essentially represented in so many places, it’s nice to see how perfect this head sculpt and body are. Thanks for comparing the different versions and thanks for the video 💎😊

[@JustinsCollection]

He is one of the most iconic faces in all of Star Wars I think!

[@j-rad]

Just bought Clone Wars Ahsoka and this one too! So excited to get them next to each other!

[@JustinsCollection]

Nice!

[@CardboardSliver]

I really want lesser known Clones, like Thorn, Crys, Oddball, Vaughn, or even Fox (so we can put him on display being killed by Vader lmao)

[@JustinsCollection]

[@sailorstudios1046]

[@gleadr6869]

Looks great, can't wait for mine to actually show up sometime this century.... I'll be displaying mine with Ahsoka once she arrives.

[@JustinsCollection]

Fingers crossed!

[@darthrizzen9349]

Thanks for this review, especially the comparison that helped me decide! I do have the Sideshow version (which is displayed with Anakin, Obi-Wan and another 501st trooper) and was waiting to see how it fared next to HT. Honestly I'm not feeling the urge to replace Rex. I agree about the floppy body. And the HT head sculpt is a definite improvement. The visual impact is very much the same, however, and I prefer the pleather kama.

[@JustinsCollection]

No probs! Glad you enjoyed!

[@macgyverbrown6803]

I hope hot toys gives us a clone accessory pack with extra pistols and a lot of head attachments. An entire display with macrobinoculars on would be amazing looking since im pretty sure all the clones had some on umbara

[@JustinsCollection]

That would be dope!

[@JustinsCollection]

Oh sick!

[@berenstudios557]

I think both versions of Rex have their place. Hot Toys hands down made an awesome live action Rex. The Sideshow one I think is a good alternative if you want a more animated style Rex. But if your looking for just one Rex to go with, Hot Toys nailed it. As a gentle reminder for those who critique HT Rex, remember that a live action Rex doesn’t exist. All things considering, they did a great job.

[@JustinsCollection]

Agreed!

[@CardboardSliver]

I wonder if the Ahsoka show will finally give us a Morrison Rex. He's said he wants to play the iconic Clone.

[@d4nnylaflame896]

@@CardboardSliver if temura appears as rex in the Ashoka show he will probably be bed ridden and old as hell. Like Bill Gates type old.

[@PablofernandHT]

Spectacular Justin as always my collection is bigger Thanks to your reviews! Hi from Argentina

[@JustinsCollection]

Thanks for watching!

[@kodyguerra8768]

I think that Rex is a little more than slightly taller than Cody. If you put them side by side standing straight up, it’s pretty evident. Not only is the helmet a factor, but also possibly the figure used for Rex and the other clones hot toys has made besides Cody. The torso seems longer, and the armor for the chest sits higher as well as opposed to Cody’s. Nonetheless super excited with both figures.

[@JustinsCollection]

Oh ok!

[@mattk8708]

Man we need a cad bane figure 🤤

[@JustinsCollection]

[@luis.esquivia]

Thank you for these detailed and timely video reviews Justin! Much appreciated!

[@JustinsCollection]

My pleasure!

[@The_Drib]

There are some parts that don’t make much sense like the blue on the pauldron, the weird green weathering, and the animated/realistic rangefinder. I’m fine with it being animated but if you are going to do an animated figure at least make it accurate to the animation. Other that that he’s quite a nice figure.

[@JustinsCollection]

Fair enough!

[@thedrifter5531]

i mean the anakin figure is taller, you can't really count the top of rex's helmet as its a helmet, so going off the visor and shoulders anakin is taller

[@JustinsCollection]

Fair enough

Hello Justin, Nice to have the rex review from you that i was waiting for! Definitely waiting for mine to arrive to join Cody! Two figures i think were perfectly well made! Thanks a lot Justin i have to say this figure is perfect!

[@JustinsCollection]

They so are!

[@wctoyreviewsandgaming577]

I know I’m late to the party. But the stock for the DC-15s blaster carbine is meant to go all the way back. It is indeed a stock. In the movies they never show any clones folding the stock, but in Clone Wars you see it a few times. Clone Commander Trauma is probably the most well known. The one commander who gets killed by Savage Oppress before he kills Jedi master Halsey and his padawan Knox.

[@JustinsCollection]

Thanks for the info!

[@Ha-Bee]

Is the rangefinder and torch compatible with the hot toys coruscant guard?

[@JustinsCollection]

Yes
