Star Wars Black Series Captain Rex — Every Figure Across All Eras

Captain Rex is the most significant named clone trooper in Star Wars — the commanding officer of the 501st Legion who lived through the full arc from the Republic to the Rebellion, who chose survival over compliance when most of his brothers had no choice, and whose three Black Series figures cover that arc from Clone Wars prime through to the weathered elder of the Ahsoka series. No other clone trooper character in the line spans this much in-universe time or receives this depth of character treatment.

Captain Rex in Star Wars

CT-7567 is human — a clone of Jango Fett, grown on Kamino, trained from birth for a war that was already planned before he was born. His designation is Captain Rex, commanding officer of the 501st Legion under Anakin Skywalker. The blue markings on his Phase II armour identify his unit and his rank; the modifications — the twin blasters, the specific helmet customisation — identify the individual within the legion.

His characterisation across The Clone Wars animated series is the most sustained portrait of clone personhood the franchise has produced. Where most clones are background soldiers, Rex is a protagonist: the leader who thinks about what the Republic is asking his brothers to die for, who forms genuine relationships with the Jedi he serves under despite knowing the attachment is professionally complicated, and who is eventually confronted with the revelation that everything he’s fought for has been a managed outcome from the beginning.

His inhibitor chip was removed by Ahsoka Tano before Order 66 — a distinction the series had been building toward since the Fives arc established that some clones knew about the chip and tried to expose it before it could be used. Rex’s survival is earned rather than lucky: the relationship with Ahsoka that made chip removal possible was built across seasons of shared experience, and the survival is the direct consequence of those connections.

After Order 66, Rex goes to ground. The Bad Batch shows him navigating the immediate post-war period — the Republic becoming the Empire, the clones being phased out, the resistance networks forming. Rebels shows him later, fighting with the early Rebellion alongside Hera Syndulla’s cell. The Ahsoka series shows him as an old man, still in his armour, still present, carrying the specific weight of someone who has outlived nearly everyone he started with.

The arc from Clone Wars captain to Ahsoka elder is one of the most complete character journeys in animated Star Wars — a man who was made for war, who chose conscience over programming, and who is still standing decades later because the choices he made were the right ones.

The Rebels Figure

The Red Line Phase 3 Clone Captain Rex from 2018 is tagged to Rebels in the data — the configuration that covers his later animated appearances, the older Rex who fights with the Rebellion. This is not the Clone Wars prime Rex but the survivor: the armour more worn, the figure carrying the specific look of someone who has been in the field continuously since the Republic fell. For the Rebels and early Rebellion displays, this is the correct figure.

The Bad Batch Figure

The Walmart exclusive Bad Batch Rex covers his season one appearance — the immediate post-Order 66 period, Rex navigating the transition from Republic to Empire and making contact with the Bad Batch as they similarly find their footing in the new galaxy. The armour configuration reflects the specific visual of this transitional period, distinct from both the Clone Wars prime and the Rebels elder versions.

Walmart exclusivity is the primary sourcing challenge. The Bad Batch sub-line had significant Walmart concentration, and this figure requires that retail channel or secondary market purchase.

The Ahsoka Figure

The Ahsoka series Rex from the 2025 Galaxy Collection sub-line is the most recent and the oldest — Rex as he appears decades after the events of Rebels, still in Phase II armour that has been with him through the entire arc. The figure captures the specific aged appearance: the same blue markings, the same silhouette, but carrying the visible history of everything that’s happened since Kamino.

This is the figure for collectors building the Ahsoka display or who want the complete Rex arc — the elder statesman who was once a captain and is still, in his way, showing up.

The Complete Arc Display

The three Rex figures together cover the most sustained clone trooper character journey in the Black Series. The Rebels-era figure for the early Rebellion context, the Bad Batch figure for the transitional period, and the Ahsoka figure for the elder — three configurations, three eras, the same person’s choices accumulating across decades. For collectors who care about the clone trooper story beyond army building, this is the character who tells it most completely.
