The 2023 Walmart-exclusive Clone Commando brings the elite troopers of The Bad Batch into the Black Series with a design that reflects the show’s stylized animation model rather than the bulkier, game-accurate Republic Commando armor. These commandos serve as the Empire’s early black‑ops units — deployed for extraction, suppression, and covert operations, especially around Mount Tantiss.
This figure is a new sculpt tailored to the animated aesthetic, with smoother armor plates, simplified geometry, and a narrower silhouette. The helmet features the distinctive green visor glow, while the chest and shoulder armor follow the streamlined Bad Batch design. The backpack is compact and angular, matching the show’s tactical gear.
The included blaster carbine is the Bad Batch variant of the DC‑17M — shorter, sleeker, and designed for rapid deployment rather than modular attachments. The removable helmet fits securely, and the overall figure captures the cold efficiency of the Empire’s early commando program.
As a Walmart exclusive, this Clone Commando became one of the most important troop builders of 2023, anchoring displays centered on Imperial black‑ops, Tantiss experiments, and the transition from Republic to Empire.
