    I love this set. A $30 battle pack with both fighting armies is such a better value than one army $20 battle packs. I hope they continue this, I would love an OT and ST battle pack like this.

  • @EchoBaseplates
    @EchoBaseplates 11 месяцев назад +320

    This is an excellent battle pack. My only gripe is they didn't include an accessory pack. It's just really weird considering all other battle packs and sets lately have included them. Mandalorian battle pack, AT-TE, both prior clone battle packs to name a few. We've gotten blue, gray, and orange, so it would have been logical to include the black accessory pack with this one.

    • @waveburner1254
      @waveburner1254 11 месяцев назад +14

      Yes please! Bring back the black accessories! I tried giving my Commander Fox the old Black Visor but it didn't fit. The newer Mold seems to hold better and is a bit longer.

    • @londond9800
      @londond9800 11 месяцев назад +12

      Agree 100% Especially since this would have been a great opportunity to include those nice binoculars from last year's 501st pack. Real missed opportunity and very odd since the helmets all have the holes.

    After buying this set, the nostalgia hit me when i built the clone turret and speeder, took me back to when I went to walmart with my folks and they said i could get a toy for ten bucks, i bought the clone battlepack.......man i miss those days

    I live in Australia. The 75280 501st battle pack was barely available here. The 187th republic fighter tank was barely available here. This set has already gone on back order. I ordered 3 as fast as I could and the moment i did, they went out of stock. I am REALLY glad i made my move because this set is great and this review CLEARLY shows it!!!

    • @thegreatsnowblizzard3196
      @thegreatsnowblizzard3196 11 месяцев назад +1

      As a fellow Australian I completely agree. It's why I think the 332nd battle pack and the 501st battle pack are a decent pairing because if you swap the helmets from the officer and specialist with 2 of the 332nd troopers you get 2 regular 501st troopers.

  • @WhiskeyShred
    @WhiskeyShred 11 месяцев назад +26

    The value in this set is great.. it’s going to look ridiculous here in Australia with that on the shelf for $49 next to the 332nd battle packs with 4 figures for $39 (!!!).

  • @Ph4ntasm4l
    @Ph4ntasm4l 11 месяцев назад +27

    Honestly the CIS builds are incredible, the figures are perfect and the value is great, but the republic builds are subpar. Still an incredible set

  • @leftygurl
    @leftygurl 11 месяцев назад +4

    the price per piece is a bit off, but i think the play and figure value is there. it’s great to see b2s again after years of them being completely absent, and to get three in the same set that’s already designed to be army built is so much better than like, a set of three b1s and a single b2 like how some clone battle packs are set up. it’s so good to get a bunch of generics and a few specialized troops for both sides in one set, i hope i can find room in my budget for at least two of these.

  • @TheGW923
    @TheGW923 11 месяцев назад +6

    I think calling the price reasonable is underselling it. This is one of the best sets for the money in recent years, bar none.
    With battlepacks at $20, for just $10 more you get more builds, and five droids. Even compared to the $30 501st battlepack, you get more usable builds and 3 extra droids here, of a type we haven’t gotten in a decade. It’s crazy that with all the inflation of the last few years, we actually got a comparable set that is better value than one from 2020.

  • @honeycombc
    @honeycombc 11 месяцев назад +3

    I’m so glad you haven’t faltered with your reviews. You haven’t confirmed to appease any one group. You criticise, you praise, all unbiased and within reason! And it’s so clear that it completely comes from a place of love for the product!!

  • @otminealnamer1385
    @otminealnamer1385 7 месяцев назад +1

    Recently got 2 of these sets just to have some figures to fill out dioramas/seats/etc in future sets, and the more I think about, the more I realize that this is one of the best sets lego has made for figure massing. It's very well done in terms of proportions, as it takes into consideration how common B1's are across many sets and focuses more on the B2's. Octuptarra is nice and better than the original one by a country mile. I hope they take the success of this battle pack and run with it, making future dual-sided packs. An Empire and Rebels one would be awesome, having a 4v4 with rebel and empire soldiers, with a small walker(maybe even an AT-PT) for empire and a little speeder tank for rebels.
    Another could one would be a geonosis droid/phase 1 clone combo pack. Similar proportions, but with the sandy brown B1's with the old antenna backpacks, a dwarf spider(love those guys), 2 normal B2's and 1 launcher-arm B2, 3 generic phase 1 clones and a generic commander or pilot in a little command station or small vehicle.
    Lots of potential with these little sets for filling those empty seats and given your favorite factions something to shoot at(for me, it's the CIS, but sadly Lego does not make CIS sets as much as they do clone sets, so I have to MOC most things.)

  • @verifier6764
    @verifier6764 7 месяцев назад +1

  • @finhisself501
    @finhisself501 11 месяцев назад +7

    I still can't believe it's only $30 for that variety and number of side-builds. After years of very limited $20 battlepacks, this feels like a huge good decision from Lego.

  • @Cringe89563
    @Cringe89563 11 месяцев назад +8

  • @evill01
    @evill01 11 месяцев назад +2

    I love this set , the amount of content in it and the nostalgia of it. Only thing I think is wrong, is the lack of accessories. They could have added black or gray accessories for the clones. I have no problem with the holes, but you might as well put them to use.

  • @tithund
    @tithund 11 месяцев назад +1

    They removed the bubbles from the light sabers, now can they please do the same with the translucent stands?

  • @NoBettaFeta
    @NoBettaFeta 11 месяцев назад

    B2 back attachment piece would have been nice to allow for a B2 rocket trooper to happen in the future. Little bit of re-deco and a brick-built jet pack and voila, “premium” B2 to include in a future set.

  • @klaykid117
    @klaykid117 11 месяцев назад +1

    I really wish for the B2 that they did what you said and either closed off the back or given us a stud connection if they were going to redesign the mold

  • @lbricks7631
    @lbricks7631 10 месяцев назад +1

    I feel like the playability could have been improved with a accesory pack. Lego literally redesigned the helmet to have quad-holes just to fit with that visor mould, the least they could do is use it.

  • @TheBrickBrit
    @TheBrickBrit 11 месяцев назад +9

    Another brilliant review Jang! I truly believe that this is the best LEGO Star Wars battle pack ever made.

  • @skyler2762
    @skyler2762 11 месяцев назад +1

    aside from some little gripes (helmet holes, lack of accessories) i think this set is almost perfect. my biggest issue is combining the factions into one pack. it forces the army builder to have both. what if i just want clones?
    still a step in the right direction from lego... maybe theyll get it some day

  • @TheLittleJotunn
    @TheLittleJotunn 11 месяцев назад +1

    It's so interesting, because in my experience, the B2s were a lot more durable than the B1s. I never had a B2 Super Battle Droid break, but I had several B1s start to get loose and I think two of them broke.

  • @johnbeaumont4210
    @johnbeaumont4210 10 месяцев назад

  • @waveburner1254
    @waveburner1254 11 месяцев назад

    I need it. I definitely need it! This whole set is a giant nostalgia bomb for me. Minifigs are top, builds are interesting! I love the Octuptarra! The STAP and the speeder and turret are a nice nod to the original Battle Pack.

    Very well done by the team at LEGO.

  • @michaelgjrjvebs
    @michaelgjrjvebs 11 месяцев назад +5

    This just seems like really good value. New moulds, some well liked classic designs, and a decent part bag? I think you're actually underselling how rare that is in a 2024 licensed set.

    • @JANGsLEGOreviews
      @JANGsLEGOreviews  11 месяцев назад +19

      Yeah I just think that this should be normal. This should be what we expect. I don't think the company that rakes in billions of dollars per year with a B should be deeply praised for making a decent product at a decent price.

  • @noahwadhams9797
    @noahwadhams9797 11 месяцев назад +9

    Tbh, the only thing I can think of complaining about is that one of the clones isn't a 327th trooper like the original clone battle pack to complete the homage, but obviously, thats the smallest of nitpicks.

    • @EchoBaseplates
      @EchoBaseplates 11 месяцев назад +3

      Not really, it doesn't need to be a duplicate of an older battle pack. The only gripe is not including an accessory pack. It makes no sense.

    • @CloneCommanderCrater1102
      @CloneCommanderCrater1102 11 месяцев назад +2

      Agreed. On the one hand it would be awesome to have gotten a 327th trooper in this set as an homage to the original battle pack, but at the same time I like that we get 3 plain troopers because it just makes it easier to bulk up your plain p2 army.

    • @bluehero-96
      @bluehero-96 11 месяцев назад +2

      It can be its own battle pack. Bly, two phase 2s in the heavy specialist style, and a standard phase 1.

    • @yurisei6732
      @yurisei6732 11 месяцев назад +1

      That'd be a nice extra, but replacing a basic I think would be a downgrade at the moment, since this style of basic clone hasn't been done for ages and getting two instead of three would mean an army builder needed to purchase 50% more packs to hit whatever their basic clone target was.

    I wonder if Lego is selling different figures in the US from a different factory than the ones we get here in the EU
    it is once against especially noticeable with the Coruscant Guard figure
    the red is a bit "flakey" and "blurry" noticeable on the red chin strip or the 2 red strips on the thighs
    the ones I got are literally perfect, they are crisp and clear
    noticed the same with many other figures you showcased, comparing them directly to the ones in front of me

  • @camerondownes5711

      @cooperv.6083 11 месяцев назад +1

      I thought I was the only one. I army built a bunch of those guys when I was a kid, it's super nitpicky and maybe unreasonable but the updated print is just a little too different to want to start getting new guys.
      Glad that this seems as good of deal as it does though for those interested. Also from a play perspective for the kids it's just nice that there's actually two factions that are both somewhat equally matched

    • @empatheticrambo4890
      @empatheticrambo4890 11 месяцев назад

      I'm sure you're not the only one! They weren't made in enough numbers in my opinion, but I feel strongly that Phase I and Phase II clones both peaked in 2014, with the exception of modern heads and leg printing being better! @@cooperv.6083

    @bobbirdsong6825 11 месяцев назад

    i don't personally like the speeder design, since lego has done better speeders at this scale. it would be nice to see some different builds for the clones since it feels like they always get a speeder, at rt, or mini canon. the tri-droid is my favorite build in the set, it works as a massable unit, looks good, and has so much play value. i think the cis is probably easier to make builds for since they have all sorts of droids, would just be nice to actually see them.

  • @martianmaggot6687
    @martianmaggot6687 11 месяцев назад

    @alexanderfry8857 11 месяцев назад

    Personally think the STAP and tri-droid are superb, the battlement is okay, and the speeder is pretty awful due to its blocky shape and oversimplicity in design. Very close to a perfect set though, and it's brilliant that you can amass a sizeable droid army if you buy just a few of these sets.

  • @Shorjok
    @Shorjok 11 месяцев назад

    I like this set but I think they should have condensed each side build into just 2 sturdier/more detailed vehicles, then it would be god tier. As it is I find the side builds are a bit bitty, and that's coming from someone who actually cares about the side builds in battle packs.

    Not that I hate b2s, and I understand that people need more since it's been years since we've gotten them, but I would've preferred 3 b1s and 2 b2s. I don't think an army should have more b2s than b1s. I mean yeah I'm sure most people already have an abundance of b1s but for the people who are just gonna army build with this battle pack then it would've been better.

    I think they did two B1s and one STAP so that you get two bent arms and two straight arms, allowing you can easily switch arms between the two droids so that the STAP driver can hold his blaster correctly.

    Something I've noticed about the clones is that I have yet to see a plain grunt with poor vertical alignment of the print, whereas almost every other print I've seen, even the shock in this set, often has the black brow seriously misaligned. I wonder if they improved the print setup.

      They’re not that bad. I’d rather they keep them consistent than change them all over again

      @@Tarriq I have gotten use to the helmet holes. 97% of the time you can hardly notice them, They are fine and allow kids to play more. Lego is not all about adults but mainly for kids. People need to remember that.

    Very average set IMO. Nothing really new or special. Of course SW fans will buy lots of these just to build an army...SW sets are getting worse every day. Bang for the bucks seems OK though.

    Great video, I'm definitely buying it, the only bad thing for me is a really ugly spiderbaker, I found some MOCs without additional parts, although I have them, because that part of the set needs an upgrade...
