except for there not being a minifigure

@@BrickReporter I do not think Midi-Scale nor Helmet sets need a Minifigure.

Lol

Stay mad

LEGO needs to fix there crap

He mentioned it like once even though most of the times they’re in this wave the clone minifigs are the whole point of the set and the helmet holes make them completely irredeemable. Honestly super reserved review that should’ve shat on the unnecessary design “compromise” more

@@kaleb749why are the helmet holes bad? They look fine

Yeah I agree. That would help with the consistency of the video.

plan on adding this next time around, might go with something less distracting and large but this is a great idea! thanks!

I would like the exact title of the set too.

Kinda deserved though. The Vaughn figure is terrible in multiple ways (at least 3 details are objectively wrong and would've been trivial to fix if the designers just glanced at a picture of him) and there is the issue of the helmet holes on the regular troopers. Those holes don't ruin the figures for me like they do for some people but they do still look pretty bad relative to what we used to get and are inaccurate when used with an accessory other than the visor. At least they made the last-minute decision to not raise the price to $27 like they had originally planned, though some countries did still see an increase (e.g. £19 in the UK when the 501st specialists pack was £18) and Walmart in the USA still released it at the original $27 price which also puts the set down for me. Edit since I forgot to include it: the build itself also isn't great. It's a small and inaccurate rendition of a swamp speeder which we never saw the 332nd use and also never saw in any colour scheme other than grey and red, not the blue used in this set.

​@@callumpears1523bruh helmet holes dont ruin the print. Also, Vaughn can easily be used as a normal clonetrooper

@@GHOULY782 I literally did not mention the helmet holes affecting the print anywhere in my comment. My issue with them is how much they stick out. The bigger issue I have with the new helmet mould though is the ridge that goes all the way around. This was not present on the previous mould and is not a feature on 'real' Clone helmets. If they added the holes but not this ridge I'd be much more forgiving of the new design, and I do believe this ridge is what is actually to blame for issues with the 212th helmet print. As for Vaughn, you can't use him as a plain trooper due to his rank badge and jetpack prints. Sure, he could be a generic officer (which is what I use mine as) but at that point you're just making stuff up to justify LEGO's poor effort.

@@callumpears1523I ain’t reading ALLLAT

​@@callumpears1523The ridge is absolutely a feature on real clone helmets (movie realistic style only), that's why it was added. It's just not that big. I personally preferred just having it printed black

Feels like a lot of the controversies are just ridiculously forced by peeps like Mandr. Like helmet holes are something so insignificant that I only hear from people who have watched these videos first.

Never let Mandr cook 🧑‍🍳 ever again .

@@stoopidapples1596 exactly!

@@stoopidapples1596hardly, they make the helmets look awful. Loads of other KZfaqrs think the same thing

@@omarbaba9892 Yea, loads of KZfaqrs, because they're critics who feel the need to generate controversy for views. Never heard anyone complain about the holes unless they had first heard their favourite KZfaqr talk about it first. It's also absurd that for Mandr this is enough to put several sets down a few pegs, but the fact that an entire side of Ahsoka's ship is completely barren is seen as no big deal because "collectors won't display that side" is absurd.

I'd Say That The Yoda Starfighter Is Good For Army Building.

Btw That First Comment Is a Joke

Ahsoka Ahsoka

It’s a downsized Gunship with half of its mini figures being unacceptably bad. Yoda’s starfighter doesn’t have any such flaws

Nah not really. I'd say putting the bloody venator below the tie bomber is far worse

My thoughts exactly, the 332nd battle pack doesn’t deserve to be put in last. Regardless of what you think about the helmet holes, you do get three great massable figures and one very solid main build. Definitely better than the micro fighters, buildable figures and 4 plus set imo.

exactly the helmet holes aren't that big of deal

@@user-nj3uu5sb7wI agree but the way they mess up the print is frustrating

@@user-nj3uu5sb7wTHANK YOU!!!! People complain about the clone helmets, but not the oversized Chunky stormtrooper helmets

First starwars set I bought since the hoth battle pack lol

Lmao

But the venator is the clone wars version tho lol?

Nice, some1 who appreciates the gunship 😄

I haven’t put mine down 😅

So I’m thinking about getting one and I know they will fix misprints, did the Fox chestplate ever get fixed or no

​@@SirStazianNot that I know of.

Gunship is better than most off these sets

Mechs have good figs, 332nd doesn’t IMO

Zero minifigs in the 332nd Battle Pack are good to me. 0 for 4. Plus one of them is a named character in a Battle Pack. Pretty clear why I feel the way I do. You obviously don't have to value the same things I do but that's my take.

@@MandRproductions I think that they’re all pretty good, excluding Vaughn, Vaughn is absolutely trash, I’ll give you that. Buttt imo, helmet holes aren’t the end of the world to me on the new clones. Yes, they could look incredibly better design wise, but there really isn’t a great way to make the holes look any better than how they do. If they were to move the hole downwards and completely remove the bump on the side, the holes would look significantly better, but then the visor attachment wouldn’t align properly above the actual visor. So honestly, I think it’s a fair compromise, unless they did decide to remove the holes completely, which would alleviate the problem, but I for one, want the holes to exist on the new clones. I like being able to have the option to customize clones and put different accessories on them, like Lego has always done for clone troopers (for the most part). So imo, this set definitely deserved a lower ranking, it isn’t nearly as bad as people make it out to be. But hey, everyone has their own opinions, that’s what makes everyone different.

One more thing I would like to add, the main build for the 332nd battle pack is actually very solid, as you stated in the video. So honestly, for me at least, the main build being pretty solid should put this battle pack much lower in my personal opinion (as much as the swamp speeder build doesn’t make sense to be on mandalore).

@@MandRproductions I know you’re probably not gonna want to read all that, but I just wanted to get my personal thoughts across lol

@@NovacaineRebelxxthe helmet holes make the clones look like they’re deformed

Pretty sure he meant the actual angled saber piece rather than the old black tube in that set.

Thank you!

Your welcome :] thx for so much great videos :D@@MandRproductions Also MERRY CHRISTMAS :D

No you’re doing it wrong, call me names and threaten me! Try again! 😂 jk thanks for the comment!

The Rex however 😬

@@MandRproductions… Is amazing lol

​@@MandRproductionsIt's awesome, i know.

@@dannyiel0618it could have been better assuming they made a new mold for the $650 dollar set and also include a printed Kama

@@frost973 Well I think that their should be kamas and there is no excuse, but I think that the main focus of a UCS set is the build, not to say that you can’t enjoy the figures. However I don’t think that a decent figure warranted such a bump down on the list. But this is my opinion and you can have your own as long as you’re not hurting anyone :)

On god

what

That's you then. A lot of us hate the helmet hole phase II helmet. And Captain Vaughn both shouldn't be in this set and looks horrible.

It literally is. I would know.

The throne room is almost perfect though. Meanwhile the Venator has a bad Captain Rex minifigure. The only bad thing about the throne room is Palpatine's face.

@@TheFirstCurse1 Rex is awesome - such overblown tripe.

@@Montyh7 His helmet holes are in the wrong spot, his rangefinder sits too high on his helmet, his shoulder pad is too large (and they make a smaller version too), his ammo pouch on his chest is too big, and he has a printed waistcape. He's pretty horrible. Better than the old phase II cursed Rex without the rangefinder, but still horrible.

@@TheFirstCurse1 Wow, imagine being so confidently wrong.

@@Montyh7 Explain to me how all of those problems make Rex a good minifigure. Please. I'm genuinely excited to hear you desperately try arguing against the many flaws in it's design.

It’s actually the worst Clone Troopers ever made: and that’s saying something considering the 2022 212th exists.

I like Fox and love his design, but LEGO really messed up with his minifigure. It's atrocious.

Great idea

Lego investing is so cringe

@@majorastormhow?

Not an iMovie feature unfortunately. My editor uses premiere pro I think.
