Rarity
Uncommon to Rare. While the set is retail, it is a high-cost UCS set ($350-400), making the figure exclusive and highly sought after by army builders.
Head
Standard 'Nougat' flesh tone with printed soul patch and stern expression (the 'Angry Clone' evolution). Features a Phase 1 helmet with yellow markings and a white visor/macrobinoculars.
Torso
Highly detailed white armor with yellow commander markings, printed utility belt, and battle damage. Includes black hands and a printed pauldron on the left shoulder.
Legs
White legs with yellow armor plating on the knees and hips. Includes toe printing, which is a premium feature reserved for special releases.
Accessories
Standard black DC-15S blaster carbine (short) and a white macrobinocular piece attached to the helmet accessory holes.
Color Scheme
Primary white with bright yellow (representing the 327th colors) and black/gray accents for mechanical details.
Printing Details
Pad-printed with high precision. includes arm printing (yellow band), front and back torso printing, and leg/toe printing. Extremely high detail compared to standard battle pack clones.
Variants
This is the 'modern' Phase 1 Commander; it differs from the 2013 orange-tinted versions and the basic 2022 accessory pack clones by having more specific 327th markings and toe printing.
Condition Notes
Check for cracks in the heels and torso sides. The yellow pigment is generally stable but the helmet visor attachment points can show stress marks if removed frequently.

Character Background
A 327th Star Corps Commander, distinguished by yellow markings. In lore, this unit served under Jedi General Aayla Secura and was known for their distinctive gear adaptations for various environments.
Design Notes
Utilizes the post-2020 'holed' helmet mold which allows for the attachment of the visor. The yellow color is intended to match the 327th though some fans argue it leans closer to traditional Commander yellow.

Collectibility
High. UCS-exclusive troopers always maintain value, especially 'named' or highly decorated ranks like the Commander.
History
Follows a long history of LEGO Phase 1 clones starting in 2002. This represents the pinnacle of P1 printing technology and detail as of its 2021 release.
Interesting Facts
This figure caused a minor controversy at launch because it was included in a 'Revenge of the Sith' themed Box Art Gunship, despite the Phase 1 armor being primarily an 'Attack of the Clones' design.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed on the official UCS stand provided with set 75309 or in a dedicated Star Wars commander display case.
Modification Potential
Excellent for purist customs; legs and arms are frequently swapped to create highly accurate 327th officers or custom ARC troopers.
Overall Assessment
9/10. A top-tier Clone Trooper with exceptional printing. Only held back by being slightly 'generic' compared to named characters like Rex or Cody, but essential for collectors.
