So the cold weather Fisto now jives a bit with the CW Plo and Echo...  I gotta hit Wookieepedia to figure out who the hell Serindipitous is.

He was the "Independence Day" inspired Bounty Hunter from the same episode as Embo. Little dude in a big dude suit. Should make for a very cool sculpt.

[Jesse James]

Ah ok, I remember him now...  Well that's neat, I guess.  I may pick him up if he's done really well.

Seripas - hell yeah!

Wow - Seripas looks great!  Rex looks really cool too.  Looks like there is a holster on his chest.  Fisto, Saese, and surf board trooper pretty meh.

[Jesse James]

Seripas is indeed very neat looking, and a must buy...  The rest, I'll gladly be passing on.  If Seripas is anything like Embo and Parasitti, he'll pegwarm well and be easy to find.

The proud tradition of no ankle joints on Clone Wars Jedi continues!

Curious that they have these listed as Waves 4 & 5. 

They all look terrific, IMO. Savage is top-notch, Seripas outstanding as hoped, and I was blown away by how cool Saesee Tiin came out. Definitely opener worthy.

That ARF Trooper (Kamino) was the "mystery figure" from ToyFair, so good to see that confirmed.

Great stuff!!

[McMetal]

Ok, confused again.

So Sandtroopers has a new picture of the carded Stealth Ops Clone (CW57) - looks very cool.

I don't see what that has to do with Commander Blackout. (as per thr front page blurb) I mean, they are separate characters and that is going to be a separate carded release from TRU, is it not?

Is this another one of those Capt Fordo/ARC Trooper Commander deals where the same figure is being identified multiple ways by the online community?

I haven't seen any other sites refer to this figure as Blackout, so I'm just curious where that information originated.

[Jayson]

Using the card art and helmet deco on the figure at Sandtroopers, I deduced yesterday that this is in fact Commander Blackout. The image that was posted on JediInsider is a different deco and includes that extra space trooper gear that isn't pictured in that carded Sandtroopers image. There is a report that in the UK there is a listing (in TRU system) for an exclusive Blackout coming to their TRU stores (similar to what they, and eventually us, received with the Nikto Guard).

[McMetal]

Nice detective work there, that is really curious.

So they just slapped the wrong name on the card?

Since the JediInsider image was uncarded, how can we be sure THAT was not Blackout? He does look, well, blacker than the other dude.

I apologize also, because I have no recollection of who those source characters were from the show.

[Jayson]

It might not be the "wrong" name on the card. If you recall, the exclusive TRU Nikto Guard wasn't named on the card insert or game card but he was on the card back as "Puko Naga". So this could be the same case here.

I know what you mean.  I am glad they at least have put some articulation in the CW figures now.  Well it's been going awhile now but you know what I mean.
