Honestly, I feel like this is (almost) a best-case scenario. LEGO seems to not like making a variety of figures, and if having the AotC, Clone Wars, and RotS clones being pretty much the same means we get more clone wars-era sets I'm fine with it. However, if LEGO doesn't release more sets with clones in the next couple years, that invalidates my points. Also LEGO designers/spokespeople really should think more before they say things. Maybe they do truly think that they never compromise their product, all anyone remembers is a yellow clone, etc. in which case they really should pay more attention to their adult/teen market. I've always been under the impression that they make up a lot of LEGO Star Wars buyers, maybe not though.
@@jdstudios1912 the LEGO store exclusivity really does suck. People were having issues finding 501st sets, I'm expecting it to be way harder to find these. The Minifigures packs used to be the only things I'd see on sale at LEGO stores, but they stopped that at some point in 2019/20.
teens/adults are the ones who buy the most expensive sets, like the UCS ones. It doesn’t make sense for lego to ignore the fans that pay the most for their sets.
Battle packs used to be 15, with 4 army builder figs. That’s 3.75 a fig. Here they are trying to charge 15 for two and one that doesn’t need duplicates. Why are people so happy paying double? I’m just getting one for the commander and that’s all.
@@quixquire1761 dude it’s a good price compared to what we get recently if we compare for example soda in the 50s you could get a bottle for 50 cents now he’ll no
The blue stripe makes perfect sense to me. Blue for films, Orange for Mando (or all live action shows), and black for the UCS stuff Edit: Didn't realize they were following the black series
LEGO was completely right to keep the blue stripe for this pack, I mean after all it’s designed to go with the Gunship, a set clearly from the original trilogy 👀
I'm honestly torn on LEGO reusing the torso and leg prints for both phase 1 and phase 2 clones. On one hand it is a really nice looking print and reusing it would allow people to swap between phase 1 and phase 2 troops just by changing the helmets which would be very cool if they came out with a more diverse array of clone legions. And I think we can all agree that the phase 1 and 2 armor really do not look that different it is an extremely minimal difference but I do know they obviously are different. The negative is really a lack of diversity between phase 1 and 2 and ultimately the knowledge that the only real reason they are doing this is to cut costs and not have to produce different types of clones. Just another cost cutting measure for Lego. "Only the best is good enough."
The issue for me is that they did use the same armor for both P1 and P2 in 2014 and it looked good. It has actually cost LEGO more to make the awful new design for the 501st troopers last year when they could've just slapped the 501st markings on the 2014 trooper.
I actually really like how they have everything in between clone wars and the movies, it’s like a duel purpose so there’s no inconsistencies between clone wars and movie sets because they’re the same character but in a different style
These prints are the same as seen on 501st, seems to me they're using this amalgamation of clone wars with movie design going forward with the clones, while I like the prints I don't see why they didn't just use the old print designs from like 2014, since the clones in the clonewars should look like clones from the movies, but Lego being Lego has led us here
@@KingCobraLolcow If you really think that's cheap, time-travel back to 2009 with the Clone Walker Battle Packs and tell me how you feel about the prices & contents then.
I feel like they could have easily avoided all of this by standardizing the P1 clone trooper armor early on by just making them all movie accurate starting from 08
I agree with your opinions on this set, being an average consumer of Lego though , meaning I don’t buy big sets but maybe a small set every once in a while, this looks good to me! I wouldn’t be able to get the Clone Commander otherwsie
I am liking this little set more and more as I see more reviews of it. I am glad you get proper Lego guns and not stud shooters but extra guns too. Both of the new minifig accessory packs have extra guns meaning you can start to replace all the stud shooters on your older battle pack figures.
I’d say the biggest disappointment here is the clone commander. Lego should have saved him for a larger episode II set and either just made that figure a third regular or one of the other ranks. At any rate I’ll definitely get at least one of these and I hope minifigure packs rise to their true potential!
Maybe the striped on the boxes aren’t based on movies. Just a thought, and it might be a dumb one, but maybe it’s blue stripes for EP 1-9 and orange for the expanded universe stuff. Not saying that’s good just could be what it is
I don’t understand the disdain for figures appearing and cheaper sets that were previously exclusive to expensive sets. Every true LEGO fan should have a chance to get the product they want at a price they can afford. It comes off as very elitist in my opinion to complain about a figure not being exclusive to a $300 set. Furthermore, THIS specific minifig is not one that you should really care about the exclusivity of. I will concede however that I would’ve rather seen three of the exact same clone, or maybe two of the regular clone and then a random third clone?
4:15 You can thank dave filoni for that. The guy for some reason made the torso and helmet look way different on both p1s and p2s. When lego produced sets from ep 2 and 3 they used the correct helmets and torsos for that, and when they produced sets from the clone wars they used the correct helmets and torsos from the clone wars. In 2020 they decided to combine the p2 trooper into a ”hybrid design”, and then did the same thing in 2022. And yeah combining it so that we dont have two different plain p1s and two different plain p2s makes sense, but it looks weird seeing them combined. I think the best scenario would have been if dave filoni never messed with the clone design and instead kept the torsos and helmets for the p1s and p2s like they were in the movies.
And would make more sense in army building since the figure here would only be 1 for every couple hundred regular troopers. You can't have 1 commander for every 2 troops lol. But I get it, "desirable figure"
Fun fact: the p1 clone trooper isn't the only innacurate new clone trooper minifig. The 501st clone trooper, yes ladies and gentlemen, is inacurate, im not talking about the white hips ore the blue arms but the blue stripe in the torso. In CW/ROTS its an A shaped stripe but in the 501st battlepack they got rid of a small gap in the stripe that is vital to the accuracy making me think that this 501st clones are based of the Legends comics where the 501st has all white arms and the exact same stripe that the 501st clone have on the battlepack
That Clone trooper battle pack is a pain in the butt to get hold of, in the time they’ve been out I’ve only been able to buy two packs so far cos pple are buying these in bulk which is expected and unfair for a lot of pple. But it’s nice to have this battle pack of clones , cos this is what I’ve been wanting for a while now and we’ve finally got them, ok maybe not accurate but still really nice to have.
The ‘blue banner’ on the box art is used to symbolise Skywalker Saga sets as the Darth Vader mini-figure mascot had done on last years sets. Otherwise, great highly detailed review particularly in regard to analysing the Clone Troopers themselves.
they do half-and-half when it comes to accuracy. the torso: clone wars. the helmet: episode 2. the weapons? don't get me started! the dc-15a wasn't even in episode 2! all this mixing of designs with no communication will be the downfall of such a wonderful (at least in the past) toy company. I hope people will read this, otherwise this was a waste of time lol
Maybe Lego guessed people would have a lot of normal P1 troopers, and needed a commander so they made this. I’m not sure why they would do this though, because anybody born in 2010 or later doesn’t have any good sets to build army’s.
At this point of buying clones for years and already getting a slightly different printing dose not bother me. None of the others match but I wish we got just three regular clones.
In terms of the Episode II accuracy of the clones, I'm guessing they're trying to get a middle ground between it and CW if they ever do phase I CW sets again. Doesn't make it any better, but still a possible reason I think
Also why is Lego saying it's going to move to using paper bags inside the cardboard boxes to save plastic, while at the same time they're making packaging like this which has plastic bags inside plastic boxes? The plastic window adds nothing to the appearance of this set unless you're particularly keen to see what a load of bricks looks like.
I heard about the Lego subscription service and I'm totally stoked for it. I heard that a lot of people were hesitant for it and that there wouldn't be enough sets to go around, and that the older sets wouldn't be the ones that people want. I just like the idea of being able to purchase the older sets at a more reasonable cost (I assume they'll release them at the original price) How do you feel about the Lego subscription service?
Ryan, just a heads-up: the printing on the Clone troopers nowadays is a combo of the animated *_Clone Wars_* design, and the live action movie design, to blend sets from the series and the movies completely seamlessly. Animated style on top, live action style on bottom. They started with the 501st battle pack, and they ain't stopping. Get used to it, dude.
What they should do is put the two white clones in with a random color of trooper. So you could get two white clones and a red clone. Or two white and a green.
@@homelandersolosfiction "This" is a blatant attempt to rip customers off. You are paying the same price as a battle pack. You shouldn't get less figures on top of the smaller build.
Dude, what is your end goal with the mini figures? Do you want them to be like photo realistic or something like that? Because trust me, making everything photo realistic wold make them boring. Just let them look like they are if you know what I mean. I feel like it doesn’t matter how good lego dose them you still want better. You make good videos and I have been watching you for a long time but still, don’t hate just because off hating sake.
Idea for lego: make specific army building packs which just have a load of regular clone troopers/stormtroopers/battle droids and some different types of weapons. Nobody needs loads of clone commanders, command stations and weapons racks!!!
Lego should re do the way they use the new range of prices, at 15 it could includes littles builds with named characters that lego cannot made sets of and for battle packs just add one fig to match the increase of the price but keeping the "build your army" direction
I would say the price is a disappointment but all the other themes have them at $15 or so too. I would agree the commander is a disappointment, but then again people take advantage of those who don’t have the space or money for a Gunship and made the commander a $75+ figure. I like the idea but biggest flaw is that they didn’t need to change the torso print, the old one was good enough. Just add leg printing and this figure would’ve looked 10x better. I actually like the idea but have a feeling they’ll be a pain to get because of it being a lego exclusive and scalpers/stock issues/and most likely being “sold out” a lot.
I think the right way to think about it, is that they have the wrong miniature in the gunship. There's no other clone that makes sense for the command center Luke the clone Commander.
Love this build, UCS is too expensive for me, so I will get it for commander for sure. Too bad we are missing 4th figure if other packs contained 4 not 3. Wish there were more than 2 packs releasing.
@@ilovetrash9660 You really believe that they aren't just greedy. They turned a $15 battle pack into $30 for the 501st set. Lego is at the end of the day a company, and unless we call them out on this they will continue to give us less.
@@astrocat3434 what successful business isn’t greedy? I’m not defending them for raising the prices but people are just going to keep buying them (like myself). I normally would wait for a sale like I do with every set but I can’t see the Minifigure packs ever going on sale.
My kiddo is super excited about this minifig pack specifically for the yellow clone trooper. He is 7- so getting the gunship, just isn’t going to happen at his age. So, while I can definitely understand why adult collectors would be annoyed, for kids it’s great.
I love how similar this is to the 2013 Droidekas vs Clones battlepack command center. Reminds of the good ol’ days when LEGO was actually listening to us and didn’t fuck everything up
@@Need_Fo_Speed do you actually think lego would give jedi Bob and commander Cody in Ucs set? Imagine someone who is new into Lego seeing Gunship with Cody and random jedi named Bob...
@@projekt-dd4bl I think people would love the unique jedu, we get to many named jedi, children should have an imagination of who that person is,and cody is just iconic for people
I just bought a few packs at the LEGO store and one of the clones was a misprint, I was originally upset but then realized it’s cool and rare so I’m happy i got a misprint
I would think the color on the box art design is different on the microfighter box because it is belongs to the microfighter series, and the normal sets just have the blue.
$15 is too much for the common Lego star wars fan who want to army build this set as you lose a minfig. Battle packs costed the same and you got four figs.
The west coast of Canuckistan finally got our command stations. I think that I would be willing to pay 5 bucks-8 bucks more to get 2 more phase 1 troopers. If you want to army build, you're going to end up with 1 commander for every 2 troops. Can you imagine having 1 karen for every 2 starbucks employees? Remember the old danish quote: "Det bedste er ikke for godt"
I love how LEGO said that its unfair to paywall minifigs to expensive sets… and then made a better looking general veers to go in the UCS AT-AT, their most expensive set…

The blue stripe could denote movies, and orange denoting shows. I’m sure that we’ll figure out if that’s true or not later on with more sets
I think lego only does blue lining on the boxart for sets from the MOVIES and other colour lining is for sets from Star Wars SERIES
I heard about the Lego subscription service and I'm totally stoked for it. I heard that a lot of people were hesitant for it and that there wouldn't be enough sets to go around, and that the older sets wouldn't be the ones that people want. I just like the idea of being able to purchase the older sets at a more reasonable cost (I assume they'll release them at the original price) How do you feel about the Lego subscription service?
its sad that for some reason they're not retired on the lego site, but out of stock and no ones bothering to restock
Ryan, just a heads-up: the printing on the Clone troopers nowadays is a combo of the animated *_Clone Wars_* design, and the live action movie design, to blend sets from the series and the movies completely seamlessly.
Animated style on top, live action style on bottom.
They started with the 501st battle pack, and they ain't stopping. Get used to it, dude.
I dont mind the torso on the Regular Clone, as lego used the ep 2 and 3 torsos on all Clones in the the past depending on the past.
It’s blue because it’s a original trilogy set😂
What they should do is put the two white clones in with a random color of trooper. So you could get two white clones and a red clone. Or two white and a green.
Or just put 4 white ones in so everyone's happy.
Add 1 more phase 1 clone and replace the commander with a seargent (green) or a Lieutanant (blue) and you have a really solid 10/10 bp.
It would be so easy, and yet they didn't do that.
@@astrocat3434 bcs that would be a battle pack and this is not
@@homelandersolosfiction "This" is a blatant attempt to rip customers off. You are paying the same price as a battle pack. You shouldn't get less figures on top of the smaller build.
Still can't find any...
Omg, when Ryan brought out the OG battle pack from 2007....nostalgic memories!
Dude, what is your end goal with the mini figures? Do you want them to be like photo realistic or something like that? Because trust me, making everything photo realistic wold make them boring. Just let them look like they are if you know what I mean. I feel like it doesn’t matter how good lego dose them you still want better. You make good videos and I have been watching you for a long time but still, don’t hate just because off hating sake.
Totally agree!
you get no bitches
No they basically insulted us when they said we’re too stupid to tell the difference between a pilot and a commander and people don’t want this shit
Man. Just went to my Lego store and they’re limiting these 1 per person… how can I army build
Sadly I’ve hadn’t had the chance to get the Clone Command outpost
I love these reviews of lego star wars sets, keep doing these and keep up the awesome work you do all year round, thank you.
Just backordered 5 of these.... I hope it doesn't get canceled.
I want these to put into my 2 UCS Gunships !
Ryan: it’s 2022
Me: LIAR!
In about 200 hours, your comment will be wrong.
@@quixquire1761 I love you 📺🚽🛥🚧
185 now. Countdown to your incorrectness!
It’s only about 126 now!
The daily bugle has 17 exclusive minifigures. It is a $300 set.
Hypocrisy at its finest from LEGO
Exclusive *right now* just like this clone was to the gunship. Rest assured those spiderman figs will be released eventually
@@welcometothejungl3 I hope so actually.
Just waiting for the 7 exclusive Mos Eisley Cantina figs to be released for $15. It’s SO UNFAIR. Won’t someone think of the children?
@@MandRproductions Remember: None for the kids
Ok I know that joke is like, 4 years old and you and BOTD are cool now, but I couldn’t resist
The blue stripes on the boxes just mean the set is based on one of the movies from the skywalker saga
Idea for lego: make specific army building packs which just have a load of regular clone troopers/stormtroopers/battle droids and some different types of weapons. Nobody needs loads of clone commanders, command stations and weapons racks!!!
Lego should re do the way they use the new range of prices, at 15 it could includes littles builds with named characters that lego cannot made sets of and for battle packs just add one fig to match the increase of the price but keeping the "build your army" direction
Looking back at it now if commander ponds wasn't in the UCS gunship and if it was a clone pilot then this would be perfect
I would say the price is a disappointment but all the other themes have them at $15 or so too. I would agree the commander is a disappointment, but then again people take advantage of those who don’t have the space or money for a Gunship and made the commander a $75+ figure. I like the idea but biggest flaw is that they didn’t need to change the torso print, the old one was good enough. Just add leg printing and this figure would’ve looked 10x better. I actually like the idea but have a feeling they’ll be a pain to get because of it being a lego exclusive and scalpers/stock issues/and most likely being “sold out” a lot.
I think the right way to think about it, is that they have the wrong miniature in the gunship. There's no other clone that makes sense for the command center Luke the clone Commander.
It’s January 2nd and this isn’t out yet it seems
Love this build, UCS is too expensive for me, so I will get it for commander for sure. Too bad we are missing 4th figure if other packs contained 4 not 3. Wish there were more than 2 packs releasing.
I personally love this set buying as many as I can when they release
Even still, you lose a minifigure.
@@astrocat3434 yeah true but that’s just how inflation is
@@ilovetrash9660 You really believe that they aren't just greedy. They turned a $15 battle pack into $30 for the 501st set. Lego is at the end of the day a company, and unless we call them out on this they will continue to give us less.
@@astrocat3434 what successful business isn’t greedy? I’m not defending them for raising the prices but people are just going to keep buying them (like myself). I normally would wait for a sale like I do with every set but I can’t see the Minifigure packs ever going on sale.
Honestly, this will sell really well, maybe next year we could get p2 regular clones. That would be really good.
My kiddo is super excited about this minifig pack specifically for the yellow clone trooper. He is 7- so getting the gunship, just isn’t going to happen at his age. So, while I can definitely understand why adult collectors would be annoyed, for kids it’s great.
I just randomly started seeing goatees on the clone troopers helmets
All in favor of having M&R be the head of Lego SW say I. That would be the perfect world
I I I I I
Definitely picking a couple of these to fill up my UCS Gunship
I love how similar this is to the 2013 Droidekas vs Clones battlepack command center. Reminds of the good ol’ days when LEGO was actually listening to us and didn’t fuck everything up
Ye, I used to have the clone command base, but I traded it for a Lego Arc Trooper Helmet, a geonosis clone trooper, and other smaller things
What do you mean back when Lego was actually listening to us? What about 501st battle pack and ucs gunship?
@@projekt-dd4bl you know, Like COMMANDER CODY or JEDI BOB. Or a Jango fetts slave 1 remake or a ucs MTT, or holes for visors on p2 clones
@@Need_Fo_Speed do you actually think lego would give jedi Bob and commander Cody in Ucs set? Imagine someone who is new into Lego seeing Gunship with Cody and random jedi named Bob...
@@projekt-dd4bl I think people would love the unique jedu, we get to many named jedi, children should have an imagination of who that person is,and cody is just iconic for people
I just bought a few packs at the LEGO store and one of the clones was a misprint, I was originally upset but then realized it’s cool and rare so I’m happy i got a misprint
I would think the color on the box art design is different on the microfighter box because it is belongs to the microfighter series, and the normal sets just have the blue.
Ryan will pay $1000 for a single figure but $15 is too much lol
Yeah this dude takes prequel sets personal
$15 is too much for the common Lego star wars fan who want to army build this set as you lose a minfig. Battle packs costed the same and you got four figs.
@@astrocat3434 I agree but he doesn’t represent the typical lego fan.
The west coast of Canuckistan finally got our command stations. I think that I would be willing to pay 5 bucks-8 bucks more to get 2 more phase 1 troopers. If you want to army build, you're going to end up with 1 commander for every 2 troops. Can you imagine having 1 karen for every 2 starbucks employees? Remember the old danish quote: "Det bedste er ikke for godt"
I like the consistently as it allows for easier army building as in future sets clone troopers will hopefully be the same
I love how LEGO said that its unfair to paywall minifigs to expensive sets… and then made a better looking general veers to go in the UCS AT-AT, their most expensive set…
I think the line denotes if it's from a movie in general or a show in general.
Okay but see, I can army build this set WITHOUT ending up with a million Ki-Adi-Mundis and Barris Offees.
Welcome back, battle packs!
Where is the micro Gunship tho? Cause you know, the Clone Commander is also a Gunship pilot…
I agree with the army building "battle packs" instead of the named characters.
A clone captain is also present (red) in the command post in attack of the clones which is actually giving the orders to the clone troopers
definitely suspect we're either getting an AT-TE or gunship given the Episode II focus this year
Instead of the commander i think they should have had a clone luteiniant the blue one
At this point angry birds Star Wars is more accurate then lego and angry bird Star Wars has been discontinued for like 3 years
Kind of weird that they put a clone pilot in a set like this.
He can pilot the flying weapons rack!
