Its the Special OPs Trooper next to Waxer.
Both came in separate 2 packs, Genosian and battle droid respectively. Sansbury's exclusives.

Thought I would join in on the clone thing.....specifically animated.

With the exception of the odd variant - pretty much a complete set up to the Colt/Riot Clone wave (and an extra Commander Jet for good measure).

Couldn't get them all in shot on stands!




.....might get rid of them via ebay at some point as have reverted to my OT love.

Not only do you have a wonderful art talent but that is a nice collection which is even giving me envy.

Beautiful line-up, Simon.  But are Senate Commandos actually clones?   Raises-eyebrow-and-goes-Hmmmm?*

Nah - I just put them in there because vzzbux did!!   :D

There are also a couple of customs in there - the Bly on the third row is actually a converted Rex (before I managed to get my hands on the real thing) and as any good collecting geek should know, the 'Bomb Disposal Clone' (orange figure top left) hasn't been made (yet) - that's a custom 'Slick'.

.....I am on the slow road to recovery from clone illness......but unfortunately it has now been replaced by the current "Vintage" line and a catch up on VOTC / Saga.

It won't be long until I start plugging the gaps in my original vintage set.....dear lord.

Nice customs, missed those!  It's hard to believe there's no Hasbro Clone Ordnance Specialist, when there are Lego Minifigs and Galactic Heroes versions already...

I'm well into several months of cold turkey on the whole thing, financially mandated - I actually put a Vintage Collection Endor Trooper back on the peg the other date.  It was hell.

The Vintage collection kind of killd collecting for me. At £8.99 a piece I don't think so.

Yup, vintage is a bit steep I agree.  4.99 or 5.99 would be more reasonable .

WOW , there's a stacy with new hat now ? There goes the kids new school shoes.

Absolutely defo. I remember an age ago pointing CF in the direction of this. I mean the stuff they have on there is all getting a bit generic at the moment. Lovely shelves of hardcovers and a honest of seemingly random genera toys and statues and movie props.

CF would well and truly blow them out the water and remind them what collecting something really is.

Well said, but I still really like all of it. GNs neatly arranged on a shelf are always a pleasure to see.

Now I feel even more keen to move house, so I can get my stuff out of boxes and on to shelving where it belongs.

Thank you both for the nod in the sites direction. I shall have to do a big photo session soon and email them! At the moment I'm in the middle of my (along with Shark) insane idea for Ron's thread  ;)
