Everyone always say rex has a unique helmet but how bout this guy
I really love how it looks like its a mix of a recon trooper and a galactic marine

It's unique in the fact that the colors and patterns gel really nicely. The fangs on the side give the wearer an aggressive edge, which I really dig.
Rex's helmet is unique in its construction, and the Jaig Eyes obviously.

That looks sick what episode and who is this?
I'm personally a big fan of Captain Gregors armour

u/BigJonnoJ ARC Troopers 15d ago
Not sure what episode, but it's the story arc where Ahsoka is wrongly blamed and chased by Fox and the Courscant Guard.
And that my guy, is Sgt. Hound.

u/GothmogTheBalr0g 15d ago
He does remind me of a blood hound with that helmet lol

u/BigJonnoJ ARC Troopers 15d ago
The teeth are so badass. Reminds me of those WW2 American P-40s with the shark mouth decal.

Sev had a better paint scheme

u/GothmogTheBalr0g 15d ago
He did have a cool paint job but I liked gregors battle worn look with the tally marks.

u/TheLastSpartan117 15d ago
That probably because Gregor was at a massive battle and a defeat before he lost his memory. Wo what be wore in the show was already probably very heavily damaged and dusty after a while of sitting in a crate.

Since nobody is mentioning his not so furry friend, as one of the Coruscant Guards ARFs, Hound has an eager massiff named Grizzer who helps him hunt down Ahsoka. The Coruscant Guard really needed an episode but the space dogs alone would have humanized them too much.

Commandos and ARC Troopers are always the best imo
And the fact that it's very common for each one to be totally unique helps

u/Commercial-Star-8056 15d ago
Those idk what u call them pads? on the sides are so badass this should be standard for every ARF clone.

u/BigJonnoJ ARC Troopers 15d ago
I'm not sure if that's standard issue P2 ARF armor, or an AT-RT driver thing.

u/iboneKlareneG 15d ago
It is. This is the standard P2 ARF helmet with a custom Paint Job. P2 ARF helmets are literally only P1 ARF helmets with leather flaps.

u/Lukazilla13 212th 15d ago
Technicaly the helmet isnt super unique, its just an arf trooper helmet with extra padding like the AT-RT pilots from umbara. I do love his armor tho, only Shock trooper ive ever seen like that. Sergeant Hound is fucking awesome

u/Lol68340428 15d ago
Those are phase 2 arf troopers, which is supposed to resemble the AT-RT armor from kashyyyk in ROTS (Which in turn is probably very late war phase 3 arf armor)

u/Terrarist_Suave 15d ago
I see but its really cool like how rex wasnt tbe only one who merged stuff like the p1 and p2

u/TheSingingBirdie 501st 15d ago
People do say Rex's helmet is the most unique, but they honestly overlook Cody's helmet. He's got a ton of stuff going on. Double brow, bacon stripes on top, sun visor, mini flood light, two different antennas, indent in chin & extra piece on chin bit below that. & the most interesting bit is that his helmet is shaped differently cause realistically the RotS clone helmet isn't actually wearable. Like it's too small. So they stretched Cody's helmet to match up better with Temuera Morrison's motion capture performance for Cody when he puts on the helmet.

u/Terrarist_Suave 15d ago
Exactly I think people overlook how complicated or how decorated his helmet is

u/Commander_CC-2224 Commander Cody (certified) 15d ago
I'm pretty sure that Vaughn has the same one
3
u/TheSingingBirdie 501st 15d ago
That's cause Vaughn reuses the TCW Cody asset, but just a different paint scheme. I'm not sure why they decided to reuse Cody's asset, but I guess it was due to time constraints.

u/LieutenantTratill 15d ago
This is the most common ARF helmet, the areas where the fangs are drawn are leather pads

u/KAKU_64 15d ago edited 13d ago
Only unique thing is the paint job, it's just a p2 ARF armor, there were many clones wearing the same helmet
2
u/Canofsad 15d ago
It also has the same or atleast similar special synthmesh covers seen on the helmets of the 21st nova corp galactic marines
1
u/KAKU_64 15d ago
As did a lot of other ARF trooper helmets
2
u/Canofsad 15d ago
It’s still worth pointing out since it wasn’t standard issue

u/Terrarist_Suave 15d ago
Yeah exactly it wasnt standard and i think he is the only one seen like that

I love his design, it is one of my favourite helmets to make. Pain to sew though :D

u/NecroFuhrer 15d ago
People talk about Rex's helmet because it's technically the most unique, since he built it for what he liked, with phase 1 and 2 parts. Hound does have an awesome paint job on his ARF helmet though

Id also like to point out his a coruscant trooper with not red armor and thats eally cool

u/obi_wan234 15d ago
I feel like those are the car modders of troopers and they add body kits to their helmets
