Year Released
2014 - First released in set 75043 AT-AP. This version marked a significant jump in printing detail for the Star Wars lineup, featuring the first 'highly detailed' camouflage printing for Clones.
Rarity
Uncommon to Rare - While not a limited promotion, he was only released in two specific sets (75043 and 75151), both of which are now retired. He is highly sought after by army builders and Clone Wars fans.
Head
Standard 'Clone' fleshy head with a determined expression, hidden beneath a unique Phase 2 Pearl Dark Gray helmet featuring sophisticated forest green camouflage and silver visor detailing.
Torso
Dark Green with detailed printing showing camouflage armor, a utility belt, and strap detailing. The metallic silver highlights on the armor plates are a standout feature of this specific era of printing.
Legs
Dark Green with camouflage printing on the front. The hips match the main color, and the printing extends down the shins to represent the 41st Elite Corps uniform.
Accessories
Includes a standard black long blaster (DC-15A) or short blaster rifle. He is often seen with a green macrobinocular piece in official sets, though not pictured in hand here.
Color Scheme
Primary Dark Green and Pearl Dark Gray with Olive Green and Silver accents. This scheme is designed specifically for the Battle of Kashyyyk.
Printing Details
High-density pad printing on the helmet, torso, and legs. This figure is noted for its lack of 'blank' space, with printing wrapping around the front and back of the torso.
Variants
This is the Phase 2 version (sw0528). It differs from the Phase 1 version (sw0380) which had the 'fin' helmet, and the earlier simplified Phase 2 version which lacked the metallic silver weathering.
Condition Notes
Common wear points include the silver printing on the helmet nose and feet. Check for torso cracks under the arms, a common issue for the dark green plastic used in 2014-2016.
Estimated Value
Used: $20.00 - $35.00 USD; New (sealed in original set context): $40.00+ USD. Individual parts like the helmet alone can fetch $15.00 due to high demand.
Price (New)
N/A (Individual figure retail). Was originally part of set 75043 ($59.99) and 75151 ($109.99).
Compatible Sets
75043 (AT-AP, 2014), 75151 (Clone Turbo Tank, 2016).
Character Background
CC-1004, nicknamed 'Gree', was the commander of the 41st Elite Corps. He served under Jedi Master Yoda on Kashyyyk and notoriously attempted to execute Order 66 before being decapitated by Yoda.
Design Notes
This figure is widely considered one of the best designed 'Standard' clones because of the reflective metallic silver ink used on the chest and helmet weathering.

Collectibility
High. Commander Gree is a named character with a distinct visual identity, making him a staple for any Clone Wars or Prequel-era collection.
History
Follows the evolution from the simple 2005 original clone designs to the 2014 'super-detailed' era which added leg and back printing as standard features for named characters.
Interesting Facts
The 'Gree' designation comes from an alien species he studied; he was a 'specialist' in alien cultures, which is why his armor is so specifically adapted to Wookiee environments.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed next to a Yoda minifigure or alongside a 41st Elite Corps army. Uses a standard 1x2 brick stand or a dedicated Star Wars display case.
Modification Potential
Excellent for Kashyyyk MOCs. The helmet is often swapped onto custom camouflaged bodies for more 'realistic' tactical looks.
Overall Assessment
A top-tier minifigure from the mid-2010s. The printing quality holds up against modern 2024 standards. Highly recommended for collectors of the 41st Elite Corps.
