About this deal

As it's name, jai'galaar'la sur'haii'se—"shriek-hawk eyes"—suggests, jaig found their origins with the predatory shriek-hawks native to the Outer Rim world of Mandalore.

Sideshow and Hot Toys is very excited to expand its stunning Star Wars™ collectible series to Star Wars: The Clone Wars™ and present the Captain Rex Sixth Scale Collectible Figure! Captain Rex once famously said ‘experience outranks everything’, and so it is that the LEGO Star Wars design team has now applied its years of experience on the Helmet Collection to its first prequel-era characters. Jaig eyes—a simplification of jai'galaar'la sur'haii'se, translating as " shriek-hawk eyes" in Mando'a, and more commonly referred to simply as jaig—were a Mandalorian sigil bestowed by clan leaders as a mark of honor, awarded for particular acts of bravery. Hot Toys did an amazing job with this figure and the amount of accessories you get with it is incredible, compared to other Clone Troopers/Storm Troopers which is just a limited few. Many of Johnston's initial decal designs were abandoned prior to filming, though they would later resurface as sigils adorning the armor of other Mandalorian soldiers, and upon personalized suits of clone trooper armor.

The most successful sets within that template are those that can keep things simple – Boba Fett, The Mandalorian – and certain compromises need to be made with characters like Rex. During the Battle of Coruscant, late in the battle, the ARC trooper's red- colored jaig eyes could be seen atop his helmet.

Captain Rex is amazing and my favourite clone from Clone Wars, obviously there was also Clone Trooper Jesse, Commander Cody, Captain Vaughan and Commander Fox. Look for other Star Wars The Black Series premium roleplay items such as the Force FX Lightsaber collection (Sold separately.

At every turn you’ll spot clever construction to capture all the complex curves that define this kit-bashed helmet – which are successful in some areas more than others, and mostly work best when viewed from a distance rather than up close. The growing LEGO Star Wars Helmet Collection has plenty of alternative characters to choose from, not least another Clone Trooper in 75350 Clone Commander Cody Helmet, which launches alongside 75349 Captain Rex Helmet.

These are dense builds, with plenty of tiny parts, so the value proposition really comes down to whether you prioritise the build experience or the sheer volume of plastic. Mandalorians had long possessed traditions of marking their armor with personalized sigils: these symbols were often indicative of which clan the Mandalorian belonged to, where their allegiances lay, or identifying loved ones. Imagine the biggest battles and missions in the Star Wars saga with Black Series lightsaber and helmet roleplay items!What’s trickier to reconcile is the strangely flat front edge of the helmet: the jaw of Rex’s helmet, which you can see on the back of the box (the comparisons on the packaging don’t necessarily do these sets any favours), protrudes forward much further than the LEGO version.
