The 2023 Walmart-exclusive Tech (Mercenary Gear) captures the analytical mind of Clone Force 99 during their Season 2 shift into full-time mercenary work. As the squad adapts to life outside the Republic, Tech abandons his bright, militaristic armor in favor of a darker, more survivalist look — one built for stealth, reconnaissance, and improvisation.
This version of Tech is a significant retool of the 2021 figure. The silhouette is transformed by the soft‑goods poncho, which drapes naturally and adds a grounded, nomadic presence. Beneath the poncho, the armor is darker and more subdued, with muted greys, blacks, and red accents that reflect the Bad Batch’s new life on the run. The helmet features updated deco, including darker lenses and a more tactical finish.
Tech’s accessory loadout is intentionally minimal — a blaster pistol for emergencies and a backpack that reflects his Season 2 field‑tech role. The removable helmet completes the mercenary silhouette, while the poncho adds depth and texture to any display.
As a Walmart exclusive, this figure became one of the most important Bad Batch releases of 2023, completing the Season 2 mercenary lineup alongside Hunter, Wrecker, and Omega.
