Clone Watch: New Star Wars Wave

Man it’s been awhile since I had some truly clontastic news that got the old clone collecting juices flowing, but the time has come to bust out the ‘ole Clone Watch logo. Rebelscum.com has info on a Star Wars figure wave that was pushed back until later this year. There are a couple of cool figures in the offering, but let me draw your attention to two of the best:
Clone Trooper - Brown Decoration: Uh, okay this one is actually a lame repaint. Remember those army builder three packs from Revenge of the Sith? Well, this guy is the brown one, but with better articulation.
All right, you might have not been as impressed with that particular choice. Well then, how about this one, chumpy?

Mama like!
This is a new super articulated Clone Wars clone trooper, which will sport a muddy paint application and a poncho. Let me repeat that if you missed it… A PONCHO. Hot damn, I’ve never been this excited about a poncho before. Let me say right now that I’m warning all the retailers in my area to order lots of these or else I’ll get super passive aggressive on your ass. Oh the scowling you will receive!
