Appearance[]
Appo has the standard Phase 2 markings for the 501st Legion and the 501st Torrent Co., only he originally had a distinct white arrow painted on his helmet, and eventually had the standard Phase 2 501st helmet, only with a pauldron.

He (of course) has only worn Phase 2 Clone Trooper armor.

Appo's name and helmet from the Clone Wars episodes he appeared in ironically resembled series producer and lead director Dave Filoni's character designs for Appa in the TV series "Avatar: The Last Airbender", a series Dave originally produced for.
