Looking to join the Empire, rebel scum? Good news, the Star Wars Black Series Clone Trooper II helmet is on sale! Not a huge discount, it’s $95 (down from $110), but it’s enough of a price cut that it could be convincing if you’ve been on the fence about joining the late-Republic armed forces that would eventually become the Imperial army.
The Clone II Trooper armor was introduced during the later years of the Clone Wars as an improvement over the Phase I design (which you see in Attack of the Clones). The Phase II version was built to be lighter, more ergonomic, and better at protecting the wearer from environmental hazards. Its look serves as a direct blueprint for the Galactic Empire’s Stormtrooper armor. Clone II was phased out by the time the Empire rose, but the mark it made lives on.
This helmet is part of The Black Series, a premium line that includes Darth Vader, Boba Fett, the Mandalorian, and more.
Any of them would make a fine addition to a Star Wars collection and honestly they look super cool on display. But why leave it on a shelf when you can put it on to instantly transform yourself into a member of the nascent Empire’s military forces? This one features a button on one side, which you can press for a voice distortion effect that will make you sound like a real Clone Trooper. It measures 13.37 inches wide, 11.25 inches deep, and 14 inches high, and is fully adjustable–this helmet is designed to fit an adult though, so, sorry, kids.
This helmet is part of The Black Series, a premium line that includes Darth Vader, Boba Fett, the Mandalorian, and more. One other helmet from the series is included in Amazon’s Prime Day sale: Clone Captain Rex, which is marked down to $125.39 from its usual $140. This is the lowest price it’s been at on Amazon for the past 90 days, making it an unusually good deal.
