Please remove the word “Trooper” from Minifigs (sw0492), (sw0194), (sw1146), (sw0481), (sw0202), (sw0380), (sw1003), (sw0528), (sw1206), (sw0221), (sw0837), (sw0629), (sw0502), (sw0609), (sw0491), and (sw0438). While names such as “Clone Trooper Commander” or “Clone Trooper Pilot” are technically acceptable, the overuse of the word both unnecessarily inflates name-length and causes search issues (namely, that the search term “Clone Trooper” yields results other than standard Clones). In my view, “Clone” is sufficient to ensure that all Minifigs are listed together, and that all can be found easily by searching.   *  sw0492 (Inv) Clone Trooper Captain (Phase 1) - Scowl Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 2   *  sw0194 (Inv) Clone Trooper Captain Rex, 501st Legion (Phase 1) - Dark Bluish Gray Visor, Pauldron, and Kama, Large Eyes Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars The Clone Wars   *  sw1146 (Inv) Clone Trooper Commander (Phase 1) - Bright Light Orange Arms, Nougat Head Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 2   *  sw0481 (Inv) Clone Trooper Commander (Phase 1) - Yellow Arms, Scowl Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 2   *  sw0202 Clone Trooper Commander Fox, Coruscant Guard (Phase 1) - Dark Bluish Gray Visor, Pauldron, and Kama, Large Eyes (Undetermined Type) Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars The Clone Wars Marked for Deletion   *  sw0380 (Inv) Clone Trooper Commander Gree, 41st Elite Corps (Phase 1) - Large Eyes Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars The Clone Wars   *  sw1003 (Inv) Clone Trooper Commander Gree, 41st Elite Corps (Phase 2) - Kashyyyk Camouflage, Dark Tan Markings on Legs, Scowl Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 3   *  sw0528 (Inv) Clone Trooper Commander Gree, 41st Elite Corps (Phase 2) - Kashyyyk Camouflage, Scowl Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 3   *  sw1206 (Inv) Clone Trooper Commander, 187th Legion (Phase 2) - Nougat Head Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars The Clone Wars   *  sw0221 (Inv) Clone Trooper Gunner (Phase 1) - Large Eyes Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars The Clone Wars   *  sw0837 (Inv) Clone Trooper Gunner (Phase 2) - Scowl Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars The Clone Wars   *  sw0629 (Inv) Clone Trooper Lieutenant (Phase 1) - Printed Legs, Scowl Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 2   *  sw0502 (Inv) Clone Trooper Lieutenant (Phase 1) - Scowl Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 2   *  sw0609 (Inv) Clone Trooper Pilot (Phase 1) - Bright Light Orange Markings, Printed Legs, Scowl Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 2   *  sw0491 (Inv) Clone Trooper Pilot (Phase 1) - Bright Light Orange Markings, Scowl Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 2   *  sw0438 (Inv) Clone Trooper Sergeant (Phase 1) - Scowl Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 2

[...] Out of curiosity what do you classify as a standard clone trooper? One that is all white with black markings? Or is this still a standard clone? (Minifigure sw0298) [...] (23 months ago, Jul 2, 2022, to Catalog Requests)
