Lego Star Wars Episode III: Clone Troopers Battle Pack

...loved Star Wars. When Lego decided to make a Star Wars series of Legos a few years back I almost lost it. The pretrilogy was a disappointment to most Star Wars fans but even though this set comes from Episode 3, it shouldn't be missed, especially if you want to build a clone army.
I usually don't buy the Lego's Episode 1-3 sets because I don't like those movies as much as 4-6 but this one was an exception. I was on the lookout to find a set ...
...Plus the new guns Lego made looks pretty good. That's basically the entire reason I got this set, the minifigs and the new rifles.

Ever since I was 5 I loved building Legos. Ever since I saw Episode 4, I loved Star Wars. When Lego decided to make a Star Wars series of Legos a few years back I almost lost it. The pretrilogy was a disappointment to most Star Wars fans but even though this set comes from Episode 3, it shouldn't be missed, especially if you want to build a clone army.
I usually don't buy the Lego's Episode 1-3 sets because I don't like those movies as much as 4-6 but this one was an exception. I was on the lookout to find a set that contained a bunch of stormtroopers and I couldn't find one that was cheap. The only set that came with a bunch of stormtrooper minifigs was the Imperial Lambda shuttle set and that one was expensive. I decided to buy this set because it came with 4 clone troopers and these clone troopers look very similar to stormtroopers. I honestly think that clone troopers look better than stormtroopers. Plus the new guns Lego made looks pretty good. That's basically the entire reason I got this set, the minifigs and the new rifles. The stationary gun turret and speeder bikes are neat but they're just in there to make it looks like you bought something with a little substance. I have never seen a 2 man speeder bike or turret in the movies.
As a Lego set, this set is really simplistic. The construction is easy but again the point of this set is the minifigs. It's better to buy a small cheap set like this than a huge expensive set just for the minfigs. As such, this set gets the job done. If you want to assemble a clone army, start by buying a few of these.
