I shall be trying to order this one tomorrow for sure.  I'm at work, unfortunately, so I hope I'm around the station at order time.  The $124.99 price point is a bit steep, but what can you do?  Below is a linked banner for preorder!

He uses one in the clone wars movie, and also clones with that type of armor used those mando packs while fighting the 501st on cloners planet in the battle front games.

That is the point, Charlie.
He is supposed to be what Rex would look like in realistic style. (Similar to how they did General Kenobi & Anakin).

Exactly, and I think it is a very nice looking translation.  I'm getting more and more excited to get one of these!

I have too agree. It's about time someone besides customizers made him in a realistic movie style.

How've I been missing these 12" realistic CW figures?  I must say, very, very well made.  Great post!

There's a new set with waxer and boil from the episode where they  save the twilek girl.
