1/6 Hot Toys -TMS065 - The Clone Wars: Captain Vaughn

In live action Cody's helmet has them but animation he doesn't so it makes sense that in animation Vaughn doesn't have them but in realistic style he does. Not inaccurate really.

First time doing first batch

Out for delivery. Early, at that.

EDIT: Now in-house and the other half was not here to witness UPS landfall. Wayii. One can ask no more.

Delivered, I'll be able to open him up in a bit.

This guy is awesome, such an easy repaint for HT but they did such a great job, which makes it even more puzzling with how lazy they were with Axe and the direction they took with the OB 501st Legion clones.

More remarks: Nicely ratcheted arms

Since this guy has on full armor, for once I would not have minded a flight stand. But nope. Regular stand, with the wire "prongs" passing under the crotch mostly straightened for some reason. This meant he had nothing to keep him from pitching forward. I replaced that with Throne Boba's upright, but I will be replacing that one with a flight upright in the next day or so. I got a million of those things, meanwhile save the wire upright for someone who will need it later.

Shoulder antenna did NOT want to cooperate.

Vaughn kicked Little Ahsoka right out of the detolf, where she was hanging out with Rex. Well, she knew that was temporary. She's now vibin' with Generic 501st in the other room.

Okay, my clone shelf is getting really crowded.

Pics please!

Needs more futzing, but here you go.

He looks really good. That bucket turned out great.

Crazy figure.

Looks good! Mine is coming Friday

Waiting for it to be in stock at Sideshow to use one of those 10% off coupons.

For some inexplicable reason, I think this one will be selling out faster than Captain Rex.

I could definitely see that, Rex was used as a gateway piece by Hot Toys for new collectors, so they made tons upon tons.

Vaughn probably has a pretty small batch in comparison.

Rex has a headsculpt and thats great, but otherwise this is actually a more attractive figure than Rex! I dont know why, but he is. Just lovely! I understand waiting for a sale, but once he does go on sale I recommend those on the fence grab him with a quickness.

Man a bunch of stateside vendors have this in hand and still no sideshow shipping notice. That's a first for me.

Looks like Jesse and the next batch of Vaughn might of been delayed to Q1-Q2 of 2023.
