I STILL dont know how Ryan feels about the new clone trooper helmets. If only he would voice his opinion

The 2007 Darth Vader box art might be my favorite of all time.

I love the new clones, helmet holes even..pretty much makes every clone so customizable tbh

Never heard someone harp on about something so minor in the grand scheme of things

nostalgia goggles a little tight here

I love that they both have helmet holes, nostalgia speaks loudly huh?

Cutting it a bit close with that daily upload ayy 😂

With respects to the classic. Helmet warts aside I definitely prefer the new one. It's just a much more complete army builder

I wonder why considering they were clearly alluding to those original battlepacks they decided not to make a 327th trooper for this one. Would've been the perfect opportunity after over a decade of not making one.

It would be really great to get another droid carrier like that. Just something small and cool to make battles with.

Why does everyone care about the helmet holes?? It's such a big fuss over nothing.

its wild to me that people consider the 2007 clones better. the whole front of their helmets is a big ugly helmet hole 😂. New ones are miles better

Bro complaining about the helmet holes making the helmet inaccurate and ugly then gassing up the ugly and inaccurate 2007 mould is crazy

LOL The helmets... with the holes... is a CLEAR upgrade from the 2007 craptacular helmets.🤣

I am among that generation that cannot stand the older helmet designs. I had like thirty of the phase II old clones and I hated the helmet visor, unprinted legs, and just the general chest print wasn't appealing to me in the slightest, The new ones have the extra helmet holes...so what? I'll just slap on those plastic visors and chest plates from the clone wars battle pack and call it a day. My fav clones came from 2020 & 2013-2015 anyway.

the new helmets are great i can add visors and antennas if i wanted to

I never liked the OG clone helmets. They might have their own style which is respectable but they don't feel screen accurate at all. The modern clones are nearly perfect, besides the helmet holes. Lego should definitely return to their previous quality of clone helmets but the modern version is still superior to the 2007 imo

MandR: ‘All Lego SW channels use the same thumbnail style these days.’ Also MandR:

i really hope lego starts to make droid based battle packs again

Ngl overall I think the new one is better I mean the clones are more accurate and the droids have better builds and the upgrade they did to the b2 makes a HUGE improvement

I don’t think a separate droid battle pack would sell well nowadays, so having them both combined is superb

That thumbnail scared me...

We really need a 2020 style star corps trooper

I've already bought and assembled 8 copies of the new 2024 battle pack. Found one clone trooper misprint too. Sold the fig for enough money to buy two more battle packs

I definitely prefer price/weight vs. price/piece since many newer sets use more smaller pieces for detail while a lot of older sets used larger pieces but less pieces overall.

Thank you for the Helmets with no holes in the M&R shop. It made the set perfect and I loved the special 2x2 M&R custom tile!

I think perfect decision, if lego wants implement helmet holes for all modern clones is to remove "earpads" and make helmet holes between where "earpads" and helmet holes was. It will solve problem with helmets looking elongated and maybe even printing issue. Sure it may be inaccurate, but I think it won't stand out too much, because lego can't mirror every detail of character on minifigure anyway and will make degree of detailing more consistent among different mf. And it worked for p1, though they don't have such prominent "earpads" no one complained about helmet holes.

Notice how the original P2 helmet mold looks like the clone trooper helmets from CW 2003. Cool detail!

I was getting worried that you wouldn’t post today

I think the only downgrade on the helmets for clones are the holes otherwise they are a vast improvement (still like the tartakovsky style p2 helmets tho)

That’s the thing with modern era battle packs, i just want clones and no named characters or specialist lol. Droids and captains what have you are cool and i think essential but for me personally i just want regular straight up clones.

The thumbnail made me think this wasn’t one of your videos

Im pretty sure those were my first Lego Star Wars sets! The 2007 nostalgia one cant be beat. Thanks for going through these agin!

The only thing I have to say about the original battle pack being split is that if it were tried today, it almost certainly would mean that both battle packs would be scaled to match a $20 price point- meaning it would be $40 to have the same amount of figures as the $30 large pack.

Loving these daily uploads,keep up the good work!

2007 troopers are definitely not better than 2024, doesn’t have to be better because of nostalgia

Can’t wait to finally start building my battle of christophsis moc. That was my favorite scene of all time when I was 14. and now that I’m an adult and I’ve got some money I’m going to take a trip down memory lane🤘

Definitely pickin up multiple of these, keep the fire content up man

Can you please make a new review for the 2007 mtt

Can’t wait till the new one goes on sale

The old battle pack got me into Lego and the original clone turbo tank! I remember my god father got me two original clone battle packs when I was 8 or 9.

Great Video thank you

6:38 them clones sitting on the ground 🤣

What a cool comparison, Ryan. These super battlepacks seem to be the way to go with rising inflation. I can’t wait to see where the return of B2’s take us in the future for prequel sets.

I remember those days as well! Was willing to order them out of the LEGO magazine, but my parents took me to Walmart and they had them 😁. Awesome day!

That battle droid set was my very first battle pack, and I've always wanted the clone one, but never got it. Since the new battle pack is basically both of those combined, it's going to make my younger self really happy (Plus my old super battle droids either have weak or broken joints).

Hello Mandr Love the vid You really gør me in to lego and i just think your a great and somehow an underrated youtuber

Literally moment got the new one pulled out all the old minifigs and droids those old helmets are still my peak

I didn't realize this was one of your vids with that thumbnail 😂

Another thing is with the 2024 build is that if you get 8 of the sets you can make this beautiful AV7 cannon

I love the ppp vs ppo comparison. Really shines a different light on it. Also the eye test is always the most important imo

Even factoring the nostalgia tax + helmet home tantrum factor, suggesting the old clones are a better design than the new ones is kinda ridiculous 😂😂

Good video, deadass thumbnail

why are people complaining about the holes it is lego not a hot toys figur it's meant to play with

As much as i love supers, there should be 3 b1s and 2 supers, not the other way around

It just seems to be a seesaw with the quality standard of the minifigures. It’s good and bad. I think the main focus for the LEGO group needs to be the molding and graphic design process. Let’s get the clone helmets where they need to be.

Love the thumbnail ryan nice change up

“You get more figures in the old ones” Me who considers the Tri-Droid a figure:

I bought all the clone battle packs available right now and i personally love all of it. With this set, i love the clone builds!!

Ok I’d say the new one wins only by honorary point of “not poor piece quality” because if lego toots that any piece made any year will fit within the building system than we need to hold those sets accountable wherever they are. Another personal note the newer clones are better imo. Im not a helmet hole lover bc I agree with anyone who says lego SHOULD be making better products if their logo is “only the best is good enough” I’m with you all the way, but we have to be fair bc some people wanted to put helmet mods on phase 2 and weren’t able to do it with the first batch we got, which is completely fair. Eventually lego will fix this error I just think it needs a little time to develop, for all we know lego is designing the fix right now and they’re just dumb and haven’t said anything, also yea 212th troopers printing sucks I tried the replacement way and got the same result as everyone else. Keep up the fight tho ryan maybe we’ll get a better arc trooper echo for our fives.

So nostalgic

Got to get one of those

I wish the set was split up so than I could buy more b1 battle droids. In SW the ratio of b1 droids to a clone is 20(up to 50):1 per singular clone in the battlefield. Would love a way to raise that number. Right now the ratio of clone to b1 droid is 4:2 generally speaking. My 120 clones to 60 b1 droids is pretty sad looking when that droid count should be significantly higher. Obviously it would be tough to match the 20 b1 droids per clone. But at least make it reasonable to obtain if someone wants to amass a large b1 droid army. I should be able to place down 20 clones and have them up against 400 droids, that would the correct ratio. But even as a 10x per clone ratio still be pleasing to be able to have 200 b1 droids up against 20 clones. If LEGO is focused on the details, they should know that the ratio of droids to clones should at least be double what’s put in sets now. 4 clones, 8 b1 droids. What do you guy think of the lack of b1 droids being outmatched by the clones?

Helmet holes by Lego are not the best, but I love clone army customs plain RP2 clone white helmets that have helmet holes… you can easily replace those helmets with clone army customs which I will be doing

31 straight days of uploads. Keep up the good work, and maybe you'll be able to make a video eveyr day this year.

As someone who owns the 2007 bp, I also intend to get the 2024 bp when it goes on sale

So what are all the extra pieces in the new one?

Damn you were buying Lego sets when I was born 😂

Has there ever been a comparison video before on your channel that has ended in a draw?

Honestly I love and prefer the new one. I have mixed feelings on the 327th clone, on the one hand i wish we had one to build that legion but also without it i can get more regs with less sets

Wow nice video

imo they shouldve added a new 327th to the new battle pack, not only would it have made a good reference but theyve made so many legions lately that it would just make sense

When will we get a gungan and wookie battle pack

Saying the new ones helmet isn’t a clear upgrade because of helmet holes over the helmet that looks more like a stormtrooper helmet is wild to me. You have superglued those nostalgia goggles to your face, that old helmet is objectively terrible😂

cool I might buy them me self! 😄

I think your videos are making me empty my wallet further and further the more I watch. LOL🤣

1:33 lol just a little bit better? this is your brain on nostalgia.

Lesson Learned, let Ryan do LEGO set comparisons

MandR why did you do what you said you wouldn't do with your thumbnail?

Yay! You didn’t skip a day. 😂💕

Absolutely wild that inflation is up by 50% in the last 15 years.

I was in Hong Kong when these were released and I bought 5 of each for about £6 each. So $7 US.

I've had a lot of trouble with regular battle droid clips breaking.

Nice vid

Anyone else think army building just to fill and entire 64x64 plate, is dumb? I don’t under why anyone wants 500 clones or droids, unless you are selling. I always see people flexing these giant armies just on a plate with no MOC

Bro really acting like it’s even close get those nostalgia goggles off. Like you acting like the helmet holes make the helmets look worse than those garbage helmets from 2007

I’m sorry but the old clones do not look like clones. When I first saw them I genuinely thought they were stormtroopers, that helmet is wayy to huge and round

Heater Boxabois

Man has ww2 and Vietnam flashbacks when he sees helmet holes 😂😂😂😂😂

Nice

I feel like with the clone troopers are better in the 2024 set because 1. the helmet holes aren't that bad because now you can add alot of essental detail and 2. I like the authentic faces

For a second I thought I accidentally subscribed to another channel

MandR it’s Junko!! From Cod oh btw nice video!!!

Your Honor my 2024 set 75372 clone trooper and battle droid Battle Pack was simply standing on business 👔

Come on man... your disdain for the helmet holes is very well documented, but the 07 helmets are NOT better than the 24s

The 2024 one literally if u get 4x you can make a big octopurra, a spider droid a Stap and a republic swoop bike and all creations would look as if Lego made em so I consider it THE best ever forever battlepack

I personally prefer 2007, but 2024 definitely has some upgrades

even with the helmet holes, the new helmets look way better

“Peaked a couple of years ago.” Shows a clone that was made literally a decade ago.

Ryan, how are we going to let Lego get away with releasing the same exact captain rex mini figure in the microfighter when they blatantly lied to us saying it’s exclusive in the $650 venator?
