Recommendation: yes 5 / 5

This set is inspired by the Star Wars: Clone Wars universe, and can be used to create and stage battles on the planet Geonosis. Battle Packs like this one, are also great for building clone armies, and the unique look of these troopers will stand out in any collection.

Recommendation: no 4.15 / 5 from 26 reviews

I like this set! Honestly, the walker is what really attracted me to this set. I love battle pack clone walkers, and this is my favorite one. It looks great, and has excellent balance because it naturally leans forward ever so slightly. It also seats 2 clones, and can hold their guns. The stud shooter is a nice play feature as well, and if you don't like to use it, it still looks good. The minifigures are all exclusive to this set, because of the Geonosis-style printing. I'm not sure if Geonosis clone troopers are canon or not to Star Wars, but they look good in any case. You get 2 regular clone troopers, and 2 of the airborne ones. All in all, I think this is a very underrated set. I recommend it!

Recommendation: yes 4 / 5 by Nick Martin

It's not a bad little build, and unlike most of the other packs, I can easily see getting more than one of this set if you were going to build up some Geonosis scenes or a nice army. They're a bit specific to that particular setting, but these are probably one of the least absurd varieties of clone. While it would have been nice to see an ARF trooper or something similar in place of one of the airborne guys, or maybe a jetpack or something to make them actual airborne troops… this is a solid army builder set.

Recommendation: no 7 / 10 by duboismerci

A good battlepack. The minifigure are definitively the highlight of the set as you would expect. Adding a new clone legion to your collection is always nice even tho some would have prefered a more "famous" legion like the Galactic Marines or the 501th. Seeing another variant of the airborne trooper is also very nice because the mold for the helmet is amazing. The vehicule included could have been better. In the end this is an above average battlepack with outsanding minifigures that carry a rather average walker.

Aside from the rapid-fire blaster and the minifigs, the only notable new elements are recolours in Dark Orange. First, there are two 1x1 ‘cheese' slopes (Design ID 54200 | Element ID 6104342), although my set had a spare third slope too. Then there is the rather prominent 2x2 half-bow (Design ID 15068 | Element ID 6104344) on the front of the walker. Other than that, this isn't really a set to buy for the elements alone. For collectors of Star Wars minifigs, and for kids who enjoy a good shootout (and have the patience to find all of the ammunition afterward), this is a great value set with plenty of interest.
