The elite soldiers of Vader’s Fist marched into The Vintage Collection in 2012 as part of Wave 13. Specifically representing the 501st Legion as they appeared during the final days of the Republic in Revenge of the Sith, this figure was a high-priority "army builder." It utilized the modern, super-articulated Clone Trooper mold to provide a definitive 3.75-inch version of the blue-striped infantry that led the assault on the Jedi Temple during Order 66.

Technical Details & Sculpt

• Design & Phase II Armor: The sculpt features the refined Phase II Clone Trooper armor, capturing the transition toward the classic Stormtrooper aesthetic. It includes the specialized helmet with its aggressive "mouth" grille and integrated filtration systems, as well as the standard utility belt and reinforced greaves.
• Deco & Legion Markings: The 2012 release is defined by its cobalt-blue markings. The paint application features the signature stripes running down the helmet, shoulders, and shin guards. The figure also includes subtle "battle-worn" weathering and scuffs, reflecting a unit that has seen constant combat across the Outer Rim.
• Articulation: Featuring premium TVC articulation, including ball-jointed shoulders, elbows, and knees. The specialized "swivel" wrists and ball-jointed hips allow the Trooper to drop into a stable firing stance, kneel for cover, or hold his rifle in a natural two-handed "patrol" position.
• Display Utility: This is the essential "rank-and-file" figure for any Order 66 or Battle of Coruscant diorama. He is best displayed in squads alongside Anakin Skywalker (VC32) or Captain Rex.

Accessories & Equipment

The 501st Clone Trooper comes fully armed for a galactic conquest. He includes his standard-issue DC-15S blaster carbine and the longer DC-15A blaster rifle for long-range engagements. A standout feature of the 2012 release is the removable helmet, which reveals a highly detailed "Jango Fett" clone likeness underneath. This allows collectors to display the soldiers as unmasked veterans or to swap heads to create variety within a 501st platoon.
