Star Wars Black Series Attack of the Clones

The Star Wars Black Series Attack of the Clones sub-line is the Galaxy Collection era’s most ambitious prequel film coverage — thirteen figures released between 2020 and 2026 with a clear focus on the Geonosis arena battle, the Jedi Council, and the birth of the Clone Army. With more figures than any other prequel film sub-line in the Galaxy Collection, AOTC has received the most sustained dedicated treatment in the modern era, driven in part by collector appetite for Jedi Order figures and Phase I Clone Trooper variants that couldn’t be produced in sufficient depth through earlier Red Line releases.

Attack of the Clones is also the film most directly connected to The Clone Wars animated series, which provides additional context for many of the characters in this sub-line. Collectors building a Geonosis arena display draw from both the AOTC sub-line and The Clone Wars sub-line simultaneously, since several Jedi and clone configurations that appear at Geonosis received their primary Black Series releases in the animated sub-line rather than the film line.

Army Building — Phase I Clone Troopers

The AOTC sub-line has produced two distinct Phase I Clone Trooper army builder releases. Phase I Clone Trooper at AOTC 02 arrived in 2021 as the standard white armour trooper — the foundational army builder for any Geonosis arena display. Phase I Clone Trooper at AOTC 05 provides a 2024 updated release. The Clone Trooper Lieutenant at AOTC 01 (Walgreens exclusive) is the Phase I variant with yellow lieutenant markings — a specific rank variant that complements the standard trooper. Together these three releases give the Phase I Clone Trooper display the variant depth the Blue Wave’s single Clone Trooper Sergeant could not.

Jango Fett (Attack of the Clones) at AOTC 10 is the 2025 dedicated Galaxy Collection Jango — the original Mandalorian armour template in the grey-silver configuration from the 2002 film, distinct from his earlier appearances in the Red Line. The AOTC Jango is the film-accurate version for Geonosis arena displays.

The Jedi Council at Geonosis

The AOTC sub-line has invested heavily in Jedi characters who appear at the Geonosis arena battle. Aayla Secura at AOTC 03 is the Twi’lek Jedi Knight — a visually distinctive character whose alien design translates well to 6-inch scale. Ki-Adi-Mundi at AOTC 04 covers the Cerean Jedi Master. Luminara Unduli at AOTC 07, Shaak Ti at AOTC 08, and Barriss Offee at AOTC 09 give the sub-line three more Jedi in a single year — an unusually strong Jedi-focused wave that delivers characters who had never received Galaxy Collection treatment.

The Super Battle Droid at AOTC 06 gives the Separatist side its primary Geonosis combatant. The forthcoming Geonosian Warrior at AOTC 11 adds the alien soldier of the host planet itself. Watto at AOTC 12 is the Toydarian junk dealer from Tatooine — technically from The Phantom Menace but placed in the AOTC sub-line — and Taun We at AOTC 13 represents the Kaminoan cloner.

The Geonosis Arena Display

The Geonosis arena battle is the primary scene anchor for this sub-line, and it is the best-covered large-scale prequel battle sequence in the Black Series. The AOTC sub-line figures combine with The Clone Wars sub-line Phase I Clones, Red Line figures like Count Dooku, and the Blue Wave Clone Trooper variants to build a genuinely deep Geonosis battle display. Key figures from other sub-lines that contribute to the scene include Mace Windu (multiple releases), Obi-Wan Kenobi (multiple releases), and Yoda.

What Is Still Missing

Despite strong Jedi coverage, the AOTC sub-line is missing Anakin Skywalker in his AOTC Padawan configuration — the dedicated Galaxy Collection TPM Anakin exists but the Attack of the Clones teenage Anakin with the full Padawan braid has not appeared in the sub-line. Padme Amidala in her Geonosis arena costume — the iconic white fighting outfit — has not received a Galaxy Collection AOTC release, though a TPM Padme exists. Count Dooku received a Red Line release but no Galaxy Collection update. These three characters represent the main cast gaps in an otherwise well-populated sub-line.

Attack of the Clones in the Black Series — Full History

Attack of the Clones was barely represented in the early Black Series eras. The Blue Wave provided Clone Trooper Sergeant and Clone Trooper Captain as army builder variants, and a single Obi-Wan Kenobi (Blue Line) in his ROTS costume rather than specifically AOTC configuration. The Red Line added Jango Fett, Padme Amidala, Mace Windu, Count Dooku, Battle Droid, and Geonosis Battle Droid — filling in the major characters and army builders. The Galaxy Collection AOTC sub-line builds on this foundation with dedicated Photo Real versions of the Jedi Council members and updated Clone Trooper releases.

Clone Trooper Army Building Strategy

The AOTC sub-line is the primary source for Phase I Clone Trooper army builders in the Galaxy Collection era. The standard white armour Phase I Clone Trooper at AOTC 02 and its 2024 update at AOTC 05 are the fundamental units. The Clone Trooper Lieutenant (Walgreens exclusive) adds a yellow-marked rank variant. From the Blue Wave, Clone Trooper Sergeant and Clone Trooper Captain in green and red markings remain the only Black Series versions of those rank variants and have not been superseded. For a complete Phase I Clone Army display — white, yellow, green, red rank configurations — collectors need figures from three different sub-lines and two packaging eras.

The Phase II Clone Troopers from Revenge of the Sith — Commander Bacara, Commander Bly, Commander Cody, and the 332nd variants — are covered primarily through the ROTS sub-line and The Clone Wars sub-line rather than AOTC, since Phase II armour didn’t appear until the later film and animated series.

The Jedi Temple Scene

The AOTC sub-line’s Jedi characters — Aayla Secura, Ki-Adi-Mundi, Luminara Unduli, Shaak Ti, Barriss Offee — give the Jedi Order the best council chamber representation the Black Series has produced. Paired with Mace Windu (multiple sub-lines), Yoda (Blue Wave), Obi-Wan Kenobi (multiple sub-lines), and Count Dooku (Red Line), these figures allow a Jedi Council or arena battle display at a depth that was impossible before the Galaxy Collection era.

Secondary Market

AOTC sub-line figures are generally available at or near retail. Aayla Secura sold through quickly given pent-up demand for the character and commands a modest secondary market premium. Jango Fett (AOTC) is the 2025 release most anticipated by collectors as a Galaxy Collection update of a Red Line figure that predates Photo Real. The forthcoming 2026 figures — Geonosian Warrior, Watto, Taun We — have been announced but as of 2025 are not yet available to purchase.

Building a Geonosis Arena Display

The Geonosis arena battle is the primary display target for AOTC collectors and the scene that benefits most from the sub-line’s depth. The complete arena display requires figures from multiple sub-lines working together. From the AOTC sub-line: Phase I Clone Trooper (multiple), Jango Fett, Aayla Secura, Ki-Adi-Mundi, Luminara Unduli, Shaak Ti, Barriss Offee, Super Battle Droid. From the Red Line: Count Dooku, Mace Windu, Padme Amidala (Geonosis configuration). From the Blue Wave: Clone Trooper Sergeant, Clone Trooper Captain. From the Clone Wars sub-line: Obi-Wan Kenobi, additional clone variants. With all these figures assembled, the Geonosis arena provides more simultaneous characters than almost any other Black Series scene — the Jedi Council’s assembled fighters, the clone army, and the Separatist forces all represented at 6-inch scale.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best Black Series Attack of the Clones figure? Jango Fett (AOTC) is the 2025 headline figure. Aayla Secura is consistently rated one of the best Jedi figures in the sub-line for likeness quality. The Phase I Clone Trooper is the essential army builder.

Is there a Black Series Count Dooku? Yes — Count Dooku appeared in the Red Line at #107 in 2020 with his curved-hilt lightsaber. There is no Galaxy Collection AOTC sub-line Count Dooku as of 2025, making him one of the main cast gaps.

How many Phase I Clone Trooper variants are in the Black Series? Multiple — the AOTC sub-line has standard white (AOTC 02 and 05) and yellow lieutenant (AOTC 01); the Blue Wave has green sergeant and red captain variants; the Clone Wars sub-line has Kamino, 212th Battalion, 187th Battalion, 332nd, and other variants. A complete Phase I clone army display draws from at least three sub-lines.

Should I buy the AOTC or Clone Wars sub-line for Clones? Both serve different purposes. The AOTC sub-line covers film-era Phase I configurations; the Clone Wars sub-line covers animated-series Phase I and Phase II configurations with specific unit markings. For an AOTC Geonosis arena display, AOTC figures are the primary source. For a Siege of Mandalore or Order 66 display, the Clone Wars sub-line is essential.
