Something that I think is easy to overlook is not just the quality of the build, which in my opinion is high, but also the quality of the parts selection. I am starting to find that especially in troop builder packs, a good parts selection is invaluable. Sure, Bricoleur Bricks is going to make something awesome out of it no matter how boring the parts selection is, but I love to see that this pack has the modified 1x2s with bars on the side, ratchet pieces, curved elements, wedge plates, technic elements, and studs on the side brackets. Additionally, including two brackets for the heavy troopers is great for folks who want to build up more sizeable backpacks, and while the lack of waistcapes and pauldrons is unfortunate, that is easy and cheap to fix. Do I see a ton of alternate builds from this set? Due to the lack of large plates and standard bricks, no, but I do see these elements being a great addition to parts collection of many lego builders, making the extra parts more of a treat than a bullet to bite when purchasing multiples of this set.

@crazydog1750 Жыл бұрын

Is that the guy that made like 100 different 501st alternate builds? Dude... that guy is cool.

@danielmcbride6413 Жыл бұрын

@@crazydog1750 he’s one of them, yeah! He’s the guy who made some of the best looking ones. He made a gunship, a republic fighter tank, and an atte, each using a number of the 501st battle pack, and they all looked fantastic, especially for alternate builds! I will say though, I built the gunship and while it looks amazing, it’s definitely not for play based on durability. One of the things I loved about the 501st battle pack was that with it being our first great clone set in years and with me being of age to be able to afford more than one or two, I found myself making lots of different things with it and I had a revelation: Bricoleur Bricks’ gunship moc requires only the parts from four 501st clone trooper sets. At retail, that’s $120, which is around what the last gunship cost, but for awhile I’ve been able to find the set consistently for $24, making the actual price less than $100(just over with tax). Why is that significant, well, four of those packs means not only the parts, but SIXTEEN clone troopers and eight battle droids, and the moc offers many of the same playable features as the last version of the set. Yes, the durability is less, but that can be fixed with a few parts that most fans already have, and if you just want it for display anyway, it already fills that role. $30 felt like way too much at release, especially because I (1) hated the inclusion of both vehicles when we would’ve been fine with just one and (2) because I thought they made both builds bigger than they needed to be just to raise the price point of the set unnecessarily. However, the reality of alternate builds means if they make small sets with good parts, we can get far better value than we ever would out of the larger sets.

@unimpressedlink2507 Жыл бұрын

The hole helmet seems to work incredibly well for troopers with visors or macros. The hole is in the proper location for both those accessories. Rangefinders are the main issue where it should attach at the ear port. I agree that a piece with a single hole for the rangefinder would be the best choice. It would have a good range of reuse potential: -Rex -Fives (S4/5) -Wolffe -All of the BF2 P2 Officers The main issue for a new visor is that there would technically need to be two new pieces. Cody, Fox, Thorn, Doom, and the Kamino Commander all have extra accessories on their visor (antenna and headlight (minus Thorn)) The heavy troopers in BF2 lack these accessories. This would leave one or the other inaccurate if only one piece was made.

Excellent review Ryan! I concur with your thoughts on the officer and the new macrobinocular piece.

One thing I do appreciate about this set is that 3/4 of the figures use both the helmet holes and look fairly appealing to the eye, plus the prints don’t seem to be bad with the blue stripes being more accurate (also I’ll likely just switch the rangefinder for an extra visor piece). Overall I like the set, I think for 20 bucks it’s a good build and a decently worthy successor to the first with pretty unique clones

@joshuamueller3206 Жыл бұрын

I miss the fabric kama skirts. They felt more "premium" in hindsight. A new clone helmet with only one hole is an intriguing idea, but seems like a bad thing to have a mold of such limited use in their inventory, but they also have a lot of unique character heads/headpieces for other themes so I guess my point is moot.

if you look at the squad composition of real world armies and how they are typically constructed then i think you will want almost as many of these as the original 501st pack. usually you would see a squad of 9 broken down into 2 fire teams lead by the squad leader. now you can develop your squad to be 1 squad leader, 2 heavys, 4 regular troopers, and almost 2 sniper/specialists (mix in the jet trooper here.) gonna need 4 of these for every platoon plus 6 of the originals

@Scottthebassplayer98 Жыл бұрын

This set has some flaws, but I'm actually going to give a hard disagree on your criticism about the macrobinoculars. They should be unprinted. The lack of print on attachment pieces is nothing new for Lego, and for good reason. Aside from a basic color, the Clone trooper attachment pieces (Rangefinders, visors, floodlights) have always been unprinted. That way, those pieces and the extras they come with can fittingly be placed onto any other trooper without any unfixable inaccuracy. If you want a version with the accurate printing for a specific type of trooper, you can decal/paint them yourself. They consistently give you a blank slate so it can be fittingly applied to potentially any other trooper figure.

To create a Clone Company (144 troopers) you'd need 20 of normal battle packs and 16 of the new specialist battle packs. Clone Officer could represent a clone Sergeant, which leads a squad of 9 troopers, ergo, you need 16 Sergeants (144/9), which means you need 16 specialist battle packs, which totals to 64 troopers, leaving 80 troopers from normal battle packs, which you need 20 of

To be honest, when I finally bought this set online, the cannon itself is a bit fragile in my opinion like some of its parts like the upper no-teeth hinge joints on its legs could break as well as the hinge parts connecting the cannon to the base and it was making a squeaking noise when I move the turret up and down. I ended up modifying the cannon, replacing the no-teeth hinge parts with locking-teeth ones to make it a bit more stable. As for the hinge connecting the cannon turret, I build one that is similar to the First Order Specialist Battle Pack. I had to sacrifice screen accuracy for stability and durability but it was worth it.

Ask Mandr: On the 2020 AT AT there were 3 seats and a speeder empty when you filled it with all the figures included in the set, and the next year they released a battlepack that perfectly filled out all those seats. The 2022 AT TE also had 4 empty seats when you fill it out with all the included figures, so is it possible that in 2023 we get a 212th battle pack to fill it out the rest of the way?

Great review

More detail = higher price. If you want printed arms, new accessory molds, and dual molded legs, $20 can quickly become $40.

I'm very happy that Lego is starting to understand the audiences that buy this set it perfectly strikes the balance between something kids will like and collectors will be satisfied with it too

the helmet holes should be specific to the Clone. E.G the Specialist/Cody/Heavy clones should have the upper helmet holes while the Regular Clones and officers should have the original or no helmet holes at all

I got two of these sets and didnt follow the instructions as i only wanted the troopers. I put them together in ways that work for me. 4 have backpacks (specialist, 2 "ARC" troopers, and heavy trooper). The remaining 4 are just the advertised heavy trooper w/o the visor and EVEN WITH THE HELMET HOLES, they look fantastic. Not one range finder i applied, just visors and binoculars. I had a concern where those holes would bother me but nope. Pretty awesome set. Just need a regular clone and jet trooper in BF2 form lol.
