Rarity
Uncommon. While part of a mass-produced battle pack, the figure is highly sought after by army builders and is no longer in production.
Head
The helmet is a unique mold with a distinct visor and breather apparatus. The internal head is typically a standard 'Angry Clone' face (flesh-toned with black eyebrows and scowl).
Torso
The torso features a detailed camouflage pattern (sand green/olive) representing the 41st Elite Corps scout armor, with back printing present. Arms are olive green with sand-colored hands.
Legs
The legs feature matching camouflage printing on the front and hips to maintain the Kashyyyk forest aesthetic.
Accessories
Commonly equipped with a DC-15S blaster or a long-range blaster rifle. The helmet itself is the primary unique accessory.
Color Scheme
Primary: White and Sand Green. Accents: Olive Green, Gray, and Black. This scheme mimics the forest camouflage seen in the Battle of Kashyyyk.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the helmet, torso, and legs. The camouflage pattern is intricate for its era, featuring multiple shades of green and brown.
Variants
This is the 2014 version. There are other Kashyyyk variants like sw0519 (ARF Trooper) and sw1032 (20th Anniversary version with updated legs/printing).
Condition Notes
Common wear includes scratching on the visor paint, yellowing of the white plastic if exposed to UV, and loose neck joints on the helmet mold.
Estimated Value
Used: $8.00 - $12.00 | New/Mint: $15.00 - $22.00. The helmet alone is worth a significant portion of the total value.
Price (New)
Original set 75035 retailed for $12.99 USD (2014), which contained 4 minifigures, making the per-fig cost roughly $3.25 at launch.

Character Background
Scout Troopers of the 41st Elite Corps served under Commander Gree and Jedi Master Yoda during the Battle of Kashyyyk in Revenge of the Sith.
Design Notes
This helmet mold is specialized for 'Scout' types, differing from the Phase II standard. It uses a unique design to represent the ARF/Scout hybrid look from the films.
Similar Minifigures
sw0005 (Biker Scout), sw0519 (41st ARF Trooper), sw1032 (20th Anniversary 41st Elite Corps Scout).
Collectibility
High. Army builders frequently buy these in multiples to create dioramas. It is a core figure for fans of the Prequel Trilogy and the Clone Wars.
History
This figure marked a significant upgrade in camouflage detail for LEGO clones, moving away from simple markings to full environmental patterns.
Interesting Facts
Despite being labeled a 'Scout Trooper', the design is actually based on the armor worn by ARF troopers and specialized 41st infantry seen for only a few seconds in Episode III.
Display Suggestions
Looks best in a forest or jungle diorama alongside the 75035 swamp speeder or against Wookiee minifigures.
Modification Potential
The helmet is a favorite for customizers making 'Jungle Biker Scouts' or 'Commander Gree' variants.
Overall Assessment
An excellent, highly detailed minifigure that remains a staple for Star Wars LEGO collectors. Its unique helmet and cammo print make it a standout piece.
