Captain Rex Is Coming To The Hot Toys Lineup [UPDATED]

Wow, it just seems like I have been writing about Hot Toys and their Star Wars lineup non-stop. With their announcements of the 40th Anniversary The Empire Strikes back figures; that include Boba Fett and Darth Vader it can’t get much better right? Well, it just did with the announcement of the newest figure to the Hot Toys lineup… Captain Rex from STAR WARS: The Clone Wars. Here is their official statement released on Facebook:

Captain Rex 1/6th Scale Figure

Clone Captain Rex served the Republic during the Clone Wars, often taking orders from Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano. He viewed military service as an honor, and he always completed his mission. Fond of using two blaster pistols at the same time, Rex customized his armor with distinctive blue markings. His loyalty to the Republic and his Jedi Generals was absolute, but even this dedicated veteran soldier found himself plagued by doubts as the Clone Wars claimed more lives and brought ruin to more worlds.

Today Hot Toys is very excited to expand its stunning collectible series to Star Wars: The Clone Wars and introduce the 1/6th scale collectible figure of Captain Rex!

The highly-accurate collectible figure is specially crafted based on the appearance of Clone Captain Rex in the acclaimed animation series featuring meticulously crafted and finely detailed recreation of Rex’s distinctive Clone Trooper armor and helmet, interchangeable head sculpt with amazing likeness, skillfully applied weathering effects, his signature dual blaster pistols as well as a blaster rifle, a detachable jetpack, an Ahsoka’s Clone Trooper helmet, and a figure base!
