Plea for Hasbro to Tool a New TVC Republic Commando

I cannot think of any future new sculpt Hasbro could get more use out of then a 100% brand new tooled Republic Clone Commando.

It can easily provide additions to mainline, retailer exclusives, and Fan Channel 4 packs. Drawing characters from a variety of Star Wars sources including Animation, Publishing, and Gaming Greats.

The last release of a 3.75 Clone Commando dates all the way back to 2012 and even that release was a partial retool of a 2006 mold. Even then the set is very cost prohibitive selling for over $250 regularly:

Hasbro made a huge mistake in The Black Series line in 2022 opting to repaint Bad Batch Hunter into lazy inaccurate Clone Commandos. This had a very negative impact on Black Series Community with some opting to walk away from the line entirely over it:
