ttpm

Recommendation: meh 4.5 / 5

The set is intended for Star Wars fans, ages 6-12. We think collectors of all ages will like this set because of the troop-building aspect and how cool these minifigures look.

Recommendation: meh 4.46 / 5 from 13 reviews

This is one of my favorite trooper packs, and my first one of the year. The speeder is sleek, although it could come with more features and pieces. The minifigures are very detailed, right down to the Shadow Troopers' printed knee pads on the legs. Planning to get several other trooper packs to increase my Star Wars army!

Recommendation: meh 3.5 / 5 by Vaderfan2187

Overall, I think this set is not bad. It has a decent build and good figures. Playability is okay and the price feels normal to me.

From Bricks To Bothans

Recommendation: meh 3 / 5 by Nick Martin

Grading a battle pack is a little different from grading a normal set, since these are things intended to be purchased multiple times, and on that realm, this one just comes up a bit short.
