Rex and Cody Phase 2 Action Figures

Following on from our post in April where I showed off my Phase 1 versions of Rex and Cody, I've since collected the new Phase 2 Clone Wars versions of both.

I'm loving Rex's new look, with the Phase 2 helmet but a Phase 1 visor (essentially the reverse of this guy) plus he's covered in tally marks for all his kills in the war so far. The big question around Rex still remains, will we see him die on the Clone Wars and when?

The Cody figure is nice however it's not quite as cool as the Cody figure that came out alongside ROTS, this one is a good deal skinnier since he's in the Clone Wars style. The figure came with an unusual backpack accessory but unless I see it in some form of canon I'm not interested in displaying him with it.

Here's the two clones with their Jedi commanders, I posted the Anakin when I first got it but I don't think I've shown off this Obi-wan yet, will some him in a few more photos soon.

Finally a couple of fun photos of each clone, Rex above with a couple of 501st troopers lit to look like Umbara, below Cody and one of his troopers blasting a Commando Droid.

Lego Bossk Necklace

Like Boba, Bossk doesn't get a lot of screen time, but I still think he's awesome!  It was great seeing more of his back story in the Clone Wars and his relationship with Boba, I'd like to see more of him in the next season.  I just love the fantastic detail on Bossk's jumpsuit on this Lego figure.

Probe Droid's Arrival

I've come up with a new way of doing these movie scene shoots because I felt they were too similar to the weekly action figure posts and it was making the blog look messy. With the power of photoshop I've removed the probe droid from these stills and replaced it with a photograph of my probe droid action figure.

I'm pleased with the result and am planning to do a whole lot more in this vain so if you're a regular visitor I'd value any feed back. We've also now removed the indexes from this site as it's too big a job to maintain, however if you want galleries you can find all our movie re-enactments going forward on our facebook page at www.facebook.com/kishometeora.

Wat Tambor Action Figure

A gift from Shannen, this fairly hard to find figure of Wat Tambor, a character I've been after for a long time.

It might not be the best figure every made, very limited articulation, but the important point is his hand reaches his tuning dial thing that makes the awesome sound effect in AOTC so I'm happy.

Lego Captain Rex Alarm

This was a birthday gift from my friend's parents, who obviously know me very well.  Usually I hate the sound of alarms, I prefer to wake up to music, but for Star Wars I'm willing to give it a go!  

He's a large scale, fully pose-able lego man and looks great out of the box after attaching his antenna.  The buttons for setting the time and alarm are on the back and very easy to operate.

His head acts as a button for activating snooze and the light of the clock face.

To demonstrate just how large-scale he is, we've compared him with my very own Lego Captain Rex necklace.
