A hero of the Republic whose journey took him from a "shiny" recruit to a legendary elite soldier, ARC Trooper Fives (CT-5555) joins The Vintage Collection. Released in 2020 as part of Wave 29, this figure immortalizes the 501st Legion soldier in his experimental Advanced Recon Commando armor. Fives is a fan-favorite character known for his fierce loyalty and his tragic discovery of the inhibitor chip conspiracy.
Technical Details & Sculpt
- Character Likeness: The unmasked head sculpt features Photo-real technology to accurately depict Fives' likeness, including his distinct goatee and the "5" tattoo on his right temple. The helmet is designed to be removable and fits precisely over the head sculpt for combat displays.
- Armor & Deco: Utilizing the high-detail ARC Trooper buck, the figure showcases the specialized pauldrons, chest plate, and kama (waist cape) unique to ARC status. The 501st blue markings are applied with precision, featuring light weathering to represent the grueling campaigns of the Clone Wars.
- Articulation: Fives features elite-tier TVC articulation. With ball-jointed wrists, rocker ankles, and a highly flexible kama, he can achieve the dynamic, low-slung firing positions seen in the defense of Kamino. The engineering provides the stability needed for complex action poses.
- Display Utility: Fives is the essential companion to ARC Trooper Echo (VC176). Together, they form the heart of a 501st elite squad display alongside Captain Rex (VC182). He is a must-have for collectors looking to recreate the iconic "Domino Squad" legacy.
Accessories & Equipment
ARC Trooper Fives is geared for maximum efficiency. He includes two DC-17 blaster pistols that fit perfectly into the functional holsters on his kama. The figure also comes with a DC-15S blaster carbine and a removable ARC Trooper backpack that pegs securely into his back armor. The removable helmet features a functional, folding rangefinder.
