Recommendation: yes 45 / 50 by Masked Builder

I'm so happy with this set. The minifigures are accurate, the cannon is cool, and the price is even better. The only thing I might have added was a Clone from Gree's legion, then it would be perfect.

Recommendation: meh 8 / 10 by Jammiedodger

All in all I recommend this set for any army builder/fan of the Clone Wars. Not only are the figures lovely, but the set itself is really good. The only things are the ghastly Geonosian heads/guns and lack of printing detail on the cannon.

Recommendation: meh 39 / 50 by Hellfyre

The figures are outstanding, and there are equal numbers to each side. New Geonosians, there are people who have been waiting years for more of these guys. The cannon is aesthetically pleasing, but a bit plain. It's good as a parts pack for brown colours. I'm not an army builder myself, but I'm sure that those who do will be buying these in their hundreds for a Geonosian army. Or swarm, I should say.

In summary, this is a nice set, but the price will probably put off anyone other than the hard-core Star Wars minifig collector, who will be delighted with the 4 new figures, which I guess will help justify having to spend £20 on it.
