Similar Minifigures

Collectibility
High. Clone Trooper variants are the backbone of Star Wars minifigure collecting and trade heavily on the secondary market.
History
Represents the 2020 update to the 212th Airborne trooper, utilizing the modernized '2020 style' clone head and slightly adjusted print colors.
Interesting Facts
Despite being an 'Airborne' trooper, this specific figure was included in Grievous's Starfighter to represent the Battle of Utapau.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed alongside Commander Cody (sw1203) or in an Utapau-themed MOC. Use a clear 1x2 brick to simulate a mid-air drop.
Modification Potential
Excellent for 'Army Building'. Many collectors swap the arms for orange ones to create custom 212th officers.
Overall Assessment
A top-tier variant for Star Wars collectors. The unique helmet mold and clean 212th printing make it a standout addition to any Clone Army.
