That gun looks cool, as does the head on the left.

I wonder if they would ever release that as a heavy option? I would have prefered that over the Z6 for everything, anyday.

I doubt the RPC-2 Rocket Launcher would be out for either Phase 1s or Phase 2s, but it could possibly be part of Phase 2 upgradenkit. I could see it for an ARF unit though.

hopefully we'll get a Phase 2 upgrade kit (or even a Rebel Fleet trooper upgrade )

I don't know about the ARF (were they stationed on Kashyyk?) or what makes one an ARF vs any other type of clone, but would be interested in something like that as well.

ARF troopers are also known as Advanced Recon Force Scout troopers which (for some reason) are different from Clone Scout Troopers which are seen on Kashyyyk... In Phase 2 ARF Armour... Canon is weird.

So I think the difference between ARF and "normal" Clone scouts is just that the ARF frequently drive walkers?
In which case I could still see the rocket being the heavy for "Clone Scouts."

Well, they'll want to release another Special Forces unit for the Clones next after new commanders and operatives get done (anakin and hopefully Snips, but before Mace Windu)

Where are you supposed to attach the rocket launcher if you’re not using the mini who’s holding it? I don’t see any attachment point where it looks to be in the picture.

By the way, since it’s apparently an expert climber I set mine in a climbing pose:

I just finished my first one and glued it behind the right shoulder. The foot/ankle/2nd knee was something else.

Got my first one assembled today, and I am with you. There was WAY too much assembly on the feet/ankle portion. I don't know how you build this thing with any sort of glue that sets quickly. I'm just glad I use Plastruct Plastic Weld!

I had to lay mine flat on the base to make sure the middle toe wasn't too low. Assembled 3 all together and not a single one looks like either option in the instructions lol. I was able to make 2 look like they are mid stride and the third used the same legs on both sides so he is either leading or taking a break to think about his next move.

I assembled my first one this weekend. Talk about a freaking nightmare. The feet simply didn't want to stay together using plastic glue, so I switched over to super glue for them. Also had to use super glue for the "waist" where the body connects to the legs because it got so wobbly with plastic glue. Good lord that was frustrating, and that was on top of the "lol, no instructions for you!" approach FFG took. I was planning on picking up a second one, but now I'm not as sure.

I ended up putting the rifle behnd the driver next to the antenna as that is where it is in the images we are given, it also serves as support for the antenna so they dont break off like all of the rebel ones did.

I received mine in 2 shipments and was dreading the remaining ones too but it ended up not being that bad after doing the first one. You kinda know what to expect. I used super glue on mine also. Gorilla glue gel gives what feels like a slightly longer working time before it sets.

@codytx2 Confirmed, second AT-RT was much easier than the first one. You just kinda assemble the driver area first, then get an idea for how you want the legs to sit and build down from there. I use Gorilla Glue as well, despite it being murder on my clumsy, clumsy fingers.

but don't worry we aren't cutting corners

If it helpful for anyone I've made an assembly instruction video for the Republic AT-RT: https://youtu.be/J7zYFXQ9kZE
