Eagle-eyed
collectors have likely noticed by now the minor running change Hasbro made to the
cardbacks of the Legacy Collection basic figures, Saga Legends, and The Clone Wars.
If you don't know what I'm talking about, or want to see some detailed comparisons
and breakdowns, then read
on!
The 2008 figures (both Legacy Collection and Clone Wars) started
off with the lens of the clone trooper/stormtrooper being black or dark blue. Wave
2 from each series seems to be the transition wave. Sometime during the 2nd wave
of each series, the lens colors were all changed to a brighter blue. Here's what
you can expect from each series:
The Legacy Collection basic figures
Wave
1 & 2 can be found with the black visor
Wave
1–present can be found with the updated blue visor
The Legacy Collection Saga Legends
Wave
1 & 2 can be found with both the black & blue visor
The Clone Wars
basic figures
Wave
1 & 2 can be found with the black visor
Wave
1–present can be found with the updated blue visor
Our Visual Guides are in the process of being updated to reflect
this cardback variation.
