Kashyyyk trooper and Wookiee warrior comic pack

Kashyyyk trooper and Wookiee warrior

I know this pack is a bit older. My local TRU got some of the older stuff from the 30th AC and I thought you guys might be interested in a review of this awesome comic pack.
The pack is part of the 30th AC and was a Wal-Mart exclusive. Other pcks from the wave are Lando&Stormtrooper or Anakin&Count Dooku.

Infomation from the card:
Wookiee warriors and clone troopers fight desperately to hold back the waves of battle droids pouring onto Kaskyyyk near the end of the Clone Wars. The lush forests of this once-peaceful planet are burning, and the air is filled with the harsh sounds of battle. Wookiees tear apart battle droids with their bare hands as clone troopers first their blasters at the attacking droids.

The Comic:
It is a DARK HORSE COMICS comic and part of the Revenge of the Sith line (#3). The comic is very interesting and shows the order 66. It seems that this comic use some early concepts of ROTS. The Varactyl-mount of Obi Wan looks different to the movie version and you can see the death of Barriss Offee on Felucia.
The Kashyyyk trooper in the pack is a also a concept I think.

The Kashyyyk trooper:
The trooper is basically a repaint of commander Neyo. The symbols on his armour are similar to the symbols of the 91st only with a new colour. It wasn't shown in the movie and the comic shows only one pic with this troopers and some standard 41st elite clones.
He comes with a removable bandolier and a bulky DC-15 blaster rifle
articulation:
he is super articulated with:
*ball- jointed neck
*ball-hinged shoulders
*ball-hinged elbows
*swivel wrists
*ball-hinged torso
*swivel hips
*ball-hinged knees
*ball-hinged ankles

The Wookiee warrior:
The Wookiee is a repaint of the 2005 version that was released in the ROTS figure line. He comes with two droid arms.
The camo on the droid arms is similar to the camo of the sniper droid from the BF II multi pack.
He comes also with a removable helmet and armour.
articulation:
*swivel neck
*ball-hinged shoulders
*swivel elbows
*swivel wrists
*articulated torso
*ball-hinged knees

In my opinion a great pack for every clone collector.

rating: 9/10

wow  :o  great review, i've never seen or heard of this pack, will have to look for one! and is it me or does bly look red in the comic rather than yellow  ???

Koty

Thanks a lot MR, it is a great pack. You should pick one up if you can find it.

btw you are right with Bly. This is an early concept of  Bly. George decided later to make him with the yellow markings.
The commander with the red markings is now Deviss.

My friend Daniel got me this comic pack for my birthday a few years back, but I lost the trooper! >:( :'( Godd review by the way.
As do I. It is our lot in life, Master. Shall we find something to kill to cheer us up?

I love the fact the Wookie comes with Droid arms for weapons, probably my favorite part of that pack. 

Updates Mon-Fri every week, also reviews and much much more.
