    The speeder in this new battle pack DOES fit in the CG gunship, you just have to turn it on its side to fit past the bars and then it'll sit perfectly in the gunship when you straighten it out. The little turret is also able to fit in the front compartment of the CG gunship.

    I’m sorry but I just prefer the clones VS droids battle pack, the 501st battle pack should’ve included a separatist vehicle instead of that massive speeder. Thats really it though. I also LOVE that the 2024 one has NINE mini figures, it’s like 2 battle packs in one!

      They could've made walker smaller as well. I've seen multiple solid modifications that use only parts in set to make it much smaller, and you usually are left with bunch of parts.
      Both vehicles should be smaller and we should've gotten a stap, maybe two droidekas, dwarf spider droid even if you will.
      If fans can reduce the sizes so much while still using only parts included, designers could have done that too.

    I do hope they keep mixing it up. Would be boring if they just kept pumping out the same thing. Personally my favorite battle pack was the Mandalorian pack from the Mandalorians vs Clones. The matching armor and the speeder bike that looked like it flew right off the screen from "The Mandalorian Plot." I even got that Bounty Hunter pack as a gift for my little brother. He loved the Tales of the Bounty Hunters book as a kid and actually liked Dengar above the others. So this was a cheap way to get assorted bounty hunters. Not good for army building but good for getting a nice collection of minifigs.

  • @TheBenjaman
    @TheBenjaman 7 місяців тому +5

    Id say both are really great. One is a fantastic clone army builder with a couple nice vehicles. And looks fantastic on display.
    The other is a fantastic clone army builder, fantastic droid army builder with decent enough vehicles. And is perfect for play.
    Id say the target audience (children) will enjoy the second newer set more. It has about equal stuff for both sides of the battlefield. lots of stuff to shoot. A pair of speeder to chase each ofher around. And just overall more play potential.
    The 501st set has better builds and still stuff to shoot. But its very one sided. If you want to have a more equal battle you had to buy the aat from the same wave. And even then the fight is still more one sides towards the clones.
    Hopefully lego continues to do battlepacks like this for other factions and eras. Would love to have some of these based on the battle of scarif and crait.

  • @KnightlyNeon
    @KnightlyNeon 6 місяців тому

    I typically only get 1 copy for battle packs but I got 3 of the 501st battle packs because of the great figs and it was a good parts pack. Iv done many iterations of alternative builds for that set and now I have 1 alt using 1 pack and 1 alt using 2 packs. In one alt I scaled down the speeder and At-rt and they look much cleaner. It was so much fun making alternative builds. I feel like LEGO could have made it a $20 set by not including the battle droids and scaling the two builds down. I think this new battle pack is a much better deal and will be fun making alternative builds with it, especially for the clones cuz the command station and speeder definitely need the improvement. The only thing I'm kinda bummed out about is no inclusion of helmet ecsessories for the clones but the thermal detonaters kinda makes up for it. Most exciting thing is definitely the figures. The shock trooper being in a much cheaper set and the long waited return for the super battle droids, I just hope they're not as fragile. The new battle pack is definitely one of the best battle packs of all time. I can't wait to make an alternate build for it. Also just like you, I really don't give a F about the very controversial helmet holes.

  • @jameshavenga4998
    @jameshavenga4998 7 місяців тому

    I have to vote for the new solely due to the side builds, mainly the STAP and Tri Droid. I've always heavily favored doing a droid as the main build in place of a walker. The 501st battle pack AT-RT and speeder bike are just too oversized and in turn I never even ended up building them when I purchased the set. Most of the battle back walkers and vehicles are tacky, the only exceptions I can think of are the great speeder bike build from the clone battle pack with the bomb squad troopers, and the swamp speeder included in the Kashyyyk troopers battle back, both were a good size and decently accurate.

  • @ar7353
    @ar7353 7 місяців тому +9

      On the Clone side, yes, I do agree that it does look like a reference to the original battle pack, mostly (the set lack's the commander with a yellow paintjob)
      As for the droids, besides the similar number of B1 AND B2 droids (and the stab speedor) , the rest it's preaty much it's own thing.
      Besides that, let's just hope Lego fixes their B2 styled legs.

    I think the battlepack with more volume is better, or atleast it feels better when buying now. Even last year everyone was really hyped about the 501st bp but now that this one is out I really do just prefer getting more stuff. Sure big builds are nice but if they focus on little things like STAPS or if they can a nicely scales model like the Tridroid its awesome, but id prefer a barc speeder from the 501st to this one any day of the week. So if they just focus on making the builds nicely scales and finished off I dont see a world where the 501st style big bp is needed.
