This mold with the new helmet has absolutely already replaced the antenna mold clones as the definitive sculpt. The only way the antenna mold beats the new sculpt in any way is some of the paint. The new helmet sculpt is THE most accurate phase 2 helmet we've ever gotten in the 3.75-inch scale compared to what is seen on screen. The antenna mold, despite being good, really doesn't have that accurate of a shape compared to what's on screen.
@@chataclysm2112 What do you mean it's incorrect? This is quite literally the most accurate helmet we have ever gotten on a 3.75 clone. I literally spent 2 hours comparing all the 3.75 phase 2 helmets hasbro has made, and this is the most screen accurate version of all of them. Also, the articulation and proportions of this new mold far outclass the antenna mold, which, while not nearly as thin as VC45, is still too thin to actually look like a person in armor.
I love the antenna mold too, but people seem to be unwilling to take off their nostalgia glasses comparing it to the new mold. The paint on the new helmets doesn't 100% fill the sculpt properly but I can tell the sculpt that's there is dead on accurate. Sculpting, articulation, accuracy are all so much better on the TVC mold, while the antenna mold only has it beat in the repaint department.
I love this 4 pack so much. It’s my three favorite armors, so I had to get two. The new mold is amazing and perfect, they need to start pumping out definitive repaints of all legions and unique characters
I don't know why Hasbro can't just use scans of the helmets like they do with the Imperial/First Order Stormtroopers. But still, this set is awesome, I hope to see Captain Gray from Bad Batch in this new mold.
I’m gonna be honest, I don’t know what you mean the 05 one looks better than the new regs. Maybe it’s cause you grew up with them but the new one looks much better to me proportionally at least.
Yeah the 05 mould is hideous. I don’t mind the helmets apart from them being a slight cone shape but the bodies look so bad. The P1 ones are even worse
I love this set, the price is bad but with the articulation and new sculpt this is easily my favorite clone figure. With a little refining on the helmet it could look as good as the tvc storm trooper. Can’t wait for the future of clone figures and what they do next!
In my case I received one of the normal white clones looking just like yours and the other one has the crisp visor like the 501, its a QC issue, unfortunately most of the regs have the smudging around the visor
I loved this 4 pack, the paint is nearly perfect and the helmet is beautiful, but one of my Regs was missing HALF THE GREY STRIPE, so I repainted it into a shock trooper
On the andor clones, i paint in the top edge of the visor with tamiya semi gloss black with a tooth pick, you can feel the edge of the mould and get a straight line. If you go over the edge accidentally, leave paint to dry for ten minutes then scratch it off with a clean tooth pick 👍🏻
My only problem is the ratio. I would've much preferred if we just got 2 white troopers and 2 501st troopers but with alternate 332nd helmets. That way if you want to army build one or the other more you can. Or just all 501st with alt helmets
Seeing as we've had sort of a TVC Clone renaissance... I am hoping to whatever is out there that we start getting updated Clone Commanders/officers from the past: Cody, Gree, maybe Neyo, maybe Bacara, Bly, etc
even comparing the role play black series clone helmet to the disney parks windu clone helmet --- Hasbro fails miserably at clone helmets. the visor and mouth is squished, even here the mouth sits a little high but it is an improvement over last year fosho
I was definitely iffy about this mold with both the Andor and the 212th Troopers, but I do think this pack is a step in the right direction! The only little gripes I really have with this mold would be with the hands and feet, which I feel are both oddly large. Maybe it's just me, but they seem a bit oversized. I do hope we get the 501st on a single-card, preferably with an alternate head, in place of the removable helmet. It doesn't feel like we've gotten nearly enough figures on this mold, but it is still fairly new, so perhaps it's just a matter of time. Hasbro is definitely making up for some past sins with the paint and new helmets on two of the four figures with this set 😂
The endor mold it’s pretty good after you repaint the visor (in order to make it wider). I also raised the head so he can have a neck. After that, it’s all good.
It would be amazing if they did a 2nd army builder pack with maybe a 212th, shock, and maybe the 187th and 327th? Im sure they never would, but I can dream!
These guys look good, although for my andor copy I painted the chin black and sat the helmet higher on the head. Without the paint the chin sticks out, but I think it looks a lot more natural and gives them a neck.
They look great. I wish they still did grill for the mouth piece, but I’m excited to get my hands on them. I hope the Rex coming out has a swappable helmet. Edit: The 501st looks amazing. They do have the grill, just wish it was a grey and not black. But I can live with that, it’s a 3.75 inch toy.
The black panel on the rear of the head still isn't painted and they forgot the silver detail on the round grills either side of the chin. They're better than before, but still room for improvement.
Hey J4 just wanted to let you know the regs on my set look sharp. Quality seems to be a gamble with these 4 packs, you may get much better ones if you get a second set
Honestly love these figures, even the regs but I do agree this should have been all 501st/332nd. Sadly for mine, the 332nd clone's visor paint is awful, like the top of the visor slopes down and it gives him an angry face look.
I'm so happy they're going back to anone-removeable helmets. As I've thought for a while now, that is the reason why helmets always looked off it because it's has to be removeable. Since money/time that would've been used, making the helmet look good, gets reallocated into making the head underneath look good instead. Now, all they need to do is stop making the helmet heads out of the swishy material, and I bet the helmets will look great!
I have to agree that the 332nd and 501st look great. I don’t know how they messed up the regs 😂 ‘05 are great but I gotta say, these new ones proportions are a little better imo
Believe me J4 you’re not the only 1 wishing this set had 2 501st’s instead of the 1 we got😔 Ideally this set should’ve been 3 501st’s and 1 332nd but if Hasbro REALLY wanted to keep the Plain White in there they could’ve at least made it 1 Plain, 1 332nd and 2 501st’s. Perhaps I’ll try to find listings that are selling just the 501st and with or without the 332nd, as for the plains I’ll probably just turn them into some Phase 2 104th Wolfpack troopers because we don’t have enough of them, hell! even the Shock Troopers got more releases before the skinny mold during the Vintage Collection 1.0 era before disappearing for the next 15+ years:~ assuming you don’t count Black Series 3.75 Commander Thorn into this equation:/
Sorry, but that 2005 helmet mold looks squished and popping at the top compared to this new mold. This new mold looks more like a head is in there and the head is intact. Looking at the '05 mold seems like the clone is being telekinetically squished around the black band above the eyes. Look at 4:22.
I think they’re perfect. I think the only problem I have with all these new clones is that they’re clean and shiny. Why can’t Hasbro paint dirty washes or at least some scuff marks like the 05 clones? I think the clean white works for storm troopers because they’re usually clean looking in the movies although the clones are always dirty.
This is the perfecf mold for live action clones, og antenna mold nailed episode 2 and 3 cgi clones , Antenna mold just hits way harder imo, only downside is the articulation
But lowkey if they just fixed the mouth vent and how chunky their bellies are ,this lowkey could be the new king, still not the best imo but they are finally close, just glad the old tvc is gone finally
Also why are clone helmets such a problem, it shouldn't be. Just rip the 3d model file modify the bottom to acomodate a ball joint and use a not hard plastic but a harder plastic and they'd be golden
This mold with the new helmet has absolutely already replaced the antenna mold clones as the definitive sculpt. The only way the antenna mold beats the new sculpt in any way is some of the paint.

It does but the antenna mold helmet is way too small!
I'm sorry but that's just incorrect.

@@CloneCommanderCrater1102no, the antenna mold is still the best RotS. The four pack is a good clone wars mold

Yeah the tvc grey from the four pack is trash
@faxmuchine interesting fact,didn't know they scanned Stormtroopr armour. Do you know of anything else that's been scanned? Thanks
I’m gonna be honest, I don’t know what you mean the 05 one looks better than the new regs. Maybe it’s cause you grew up with them but the new one looks much better to me proportionally at least.
T visor should be longer, the mouth sits too high up
Yeah the 05 mould is hideous. I don’t mind the helmets apart from them being a slight cone shape but the bodies look so bad. The P1 ones are even worse
This almost makes me wanna come back to collecting. Thank god they finally got rid of those ultra skinny legs.
I love this 4 pack so much that i literally bought 4 of them but the plain phase 2s didn't remain normal troopers since i love to customize
I love this set, the price is bad but with the articulation and new sculpt this is easily my favorite clone figure. With a little refining on the helmet it could look as good as the tvc storm trooper. Can’t wait for the future of clone figures and what they do next!

Meanwhile we need a new Clone snow trooper mold

Having 4 501st with alternative 332nd helmets would have beeng the ideal choice. But you know Hasbro.
Alternate helmets wouldn't work as the 332nd have different backplate deco
Seeing as we've had sort of a TVC Clone renaissance...
I am hoping to whatever is out there that we start getting updated Clone Commanders/officers from the past: Cody, Gree, maybe Neyo, maybe Bacara, Bly, etc
Hmm, the box art for the 501st troopers helmet is wrong
Glad i wasn't the only one who noticed

I can agree. I feel the legs are a bit wider than they should be. To me he looks like he has sausage feet
I might buy it just for the 501st

After that, it’s all good.

This>>> antenna mold
It really should come with Swappable Temuera heads in my opinion.
This battle pack is nice. I like to use the regs for customs.
I’m sorry but the new helmet mold is better than the 2005 mold. It’s way more accurate and proportionate.
These guys look good, although for my andor copy I painted the chin black and sat the helmet higher on the head. Without the paint the chin sticks out, but I think it looks a lot more natural and gives them a neck.
I’ve got 2 questions
-why don’t they bring back CW animated style figs?
-why don’t they bring back old molds?
Those are the very same questions I have
They look great. I wish they still did grill for the mouth piece, but I’m excited to get my hands on them. I hope the Rex coming out has a swappable helmet.
Edit: The 501st looks amazing. They do have the grill, just wish it was a grey and not black. But I can live with that, it’s a 3.75 inch toy.
Yeah the new rex figure does indeed have a swappable helmet
@@ZayaBoww good
the fins on the 501st helmets on the box art are blue, when they're supposed to be white, zero idea how Hasbro messed that up
The black panel on the rear of the head still isn't painted and they forgot the silver detail on the round grills either side of the chin. They're better than before, but still room for improvement.
Ok hasbro now give us what you love to do and what we want the most…CLONES REPAINTS WITH THIS MOLD
Got mine from amazon the other day but havent opened them yet. Honestly disappointed they dont have removable helmets.
The box looks awesome
Looking forward to picking this set up. Why does the 501st have a painted back but the 332nd doesn't?
One of the TVC designers confirmed on Instagram that Lucasfilm wanted it that way because what the Ahsoka show costumes look like.
@@NoahR_Cheers!
the new 501st reminds me of the cancelled battlefront 3 clone trooper model, which I really like
I wish they made stadard grunt 4 packs or coruscant guards
Man i wish they would do a new Wolffe, Cody, and Wolfpack 4 pack, they would sell so well
Hey J4 just wanted to let you know the regs on my set look sharp. Quality seems to be a gamble with these 4 packs, you may get much better ones if you get a second set
Now I want this

The skinny moulds are so trash now. I got the new phase 1 tvc and it beats the v45.
I agree but the new phase 1 helmet is awful.
I'm done with Clones. With that said, I just picked up a single carded ARC trooper Echo at a local toyshow for $25! Lol
This is the perfecf mold for live action clones, og antenna mold nailed episode 2 and 3 cgi clones ,

I swear didn't you already cover a clone trooper tvc 4 pack? Or am I on a different time line, did I load the wrong save?
This is the third clone trooper 4-pack!
Are you going to get the black series clone and droid 2 pack?
I did! I didn't keep the droid tho
Also why are clone helmets such a problem, it shouldn't be. Just rip the 3d model file modify the bottom to acomodate a ball joint and use a not hard plastic but a harder plastic and they'd be golden
Honestly, I just don't like Phase 2 helmets in general, I just want more Phase 1 troopers!
Is it 3.75 inch
love it
RIP anorexic clone bois I’m gonna miss em in a way
Irrelevant to the video, can 2009 arf troopers yellow on the chest? Not the abdomen part, like the belt and the chest.
The chest and belt are made out of a softer plastic, so no. Only the crotch and the joints have potential to yellow due to being harder ABS plastic.
Ooooh maybe because it's used then. Thanks for the info.
This new mold is not bad, I just wish hasbro would re release the antenna mold again though😢
The price of the pack should very much so be 15$
They’re tiny little clones hasbro, they are not worth 50$
You can never have enough clones...
