Jaig eyes



Jaig eyes were a Mandalorian honor usually worn upon the helmet of clone troopers or Mandalorians who had distinguished themselves in battle.

Realized as a pair of stylized Jai'galaar eyes, they were awarded to warriors for particular acts of bravery. The use of Jaig eyes was one of the many traditions passed on to the clone troopers of the Grand Army of the Republic by Jango Fett and the Cuy'val Dar.

Recipients include Captain Fordo, who received the honor for his bravery on Hypori, Captain Rex, and Fenn Shysa.

Notable recipients

 * Captain Fordo
 * Captain Rex
 * Fenn Shysa

Behind the scenes
Like much of the Mandalorian sigils and imagery included in the personalization of Clone trooper armor, the design for Jaig eyes originates in concept art and early paint explorations of Boba Fett's armor that were abandoned prior to the filming of The Empire Strikes Back. See an early paint image of Boba Fett's helmet (available only to Hyperspace members.)



Two Clone Trooper action figures are scheduled to be produced by Hasbro which both feature Jaig Eyes. This set is an Entertainment Earth exclusive.
