Trooper TC9527,nicknamed Slayer, and 9 squads of the 501st Legion troopers were attached to 212th Legion.

They were on their first joint mission to Utapau to hunt down General Greivous. The gunship that Slayer was transported in was under heavy anti-air attack while it was touching down on a LP. Slayer survived with a badly damaged helmet! He picked up his less fortunate fellow 501st trooper's helmet and carried on to reorg at the RP...

Haha.. I am actually concealing the difference in white shades by the dirtier looks. To have 100% consistency, I am thinking of repainting/ re-weathering the armor. But in the meantime, a little history... :)

As for the maker, Bro, we got from the same source. :)


Wil, its Flat Blue of Tamiya that I am using.

I was thinking unlike the sandtrooper. Clones are dirty in the shades of black or grey instead of brown and sand.... :twisted:

Same source??? Mine still look like... well.. raw... haha... no time to do anything to it....
