CAPTAIN REX Star Wars 2013 The Clone Wars
Captain Rex fights beside Anakin Skywalker during the Clone Wars. The clone captain is a tough, capable leader who quickly adapts to changing situations and plans - a helpful skill for anyone who works with the inventive and impulsive Skywalker.

The first assortment of The Clone Wars was to serve as its last. Hasbro decided to cancel the line and as such, this wave, which included new figures based on Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Captain Rex, R2-D2, the 501st Legion Clone Trooper and Battle Droid. In addition, this wave also repacked the armored version of Savage Opress and Clone Commander Cody as well as the first (and last) single-carded Darth Maul.

The Clone Wars 2013 series 1 began shipping in Europe in January and in Canada in February. Hasbro has no plans on releasing these figures in the U.S. For all future Clone Wars figures, collectors will be looking for realistic looking figures in the other action figure assortments.

About This Figure:
  • This time out, Hasbro did away with the weathering wash, so the good captain's armor is pretty clean. The went back to the drawing board with his deco as well, making it more screen accurate. The torso stripes are now jagged and the tallies are black instead of blue. The big selling point is the new bending knees. That's right, this new version has ball-hinged knees. What's more, his gatling gun has an articulated handle and barrel!
