Hot Toys - Star Wars: The Clone Wars - 1/6th scale Captain Rex Collectible Figure

HT seems like a cheap product company under the hood of a high end niche product company.

it's supposed to have a bended shape on top of the antenna attached to Cody's helmet, you'd probably didn't notice but it's really broken, same as mine.

Lol if you had not mentioned that I would not have noticed it. Worst part is, the antenna was there before I moved Cody to take a picture with Rex. Not a big deal to me TBH.

I preordered from Sideshow last December, and I'm still waiting...

I think I know why some experience a slight gloss on the forehead. Think it's due to the plastic protection used on the upper clamshell, combined with a rather shallow compartment for the head sculpt, pressing onto the forehead and "leaking" oil/plastic onto the headsulpt. Might be good to remove either the thin plastic on the clamshell or remove the headsculpt from the box to prevent further damage/"glossing". Any idea on how to remove the glossy film from the forehead without dealing too much damage to the paint applications?

Got mine earlier this week. I hope you get yours soon, it is an awesome figure.

Quick update guys, Cody has his antenna back lol . Found the little piece that broke on the floor and was able to fix it without major inconvenience. I’ll be super careful with him from now on.

Glad you found it. How did you glue it?

I used this

That plastic primer worked really well and helped to fuse the piece. You only need a little patience and steady hands.

How stable is it for Rex to hold onto his helmet. I see over half display him this way and I am wondering how tight/snug the hold is?

I would say it will depend on how well you pose it. Mine is pretty tight. The helmet has not fallen down not even once since I have him in that pose.

It is a great pose. Best way to display the amazing sculpt and helmet.

Yeah, anyone repositioning their antenna, please do not grab it by the the tip. Grab the insertion point and rotate.
