    Theme: Star Wars
    Name: Mandalorian Battle Pack
    S/N: #7914
    Year: 2011
    Pieces: 68
    Minifig: 4
    Price: RM89.90

    Box
    The front box art include the name of the set and also a tiny picture of Mandalorain on the lower left and of course the front have one cool box art. The top side of the box shows the actual minifig scale that is to let us know the size of the minifig and the back of the box shows the picture of the Mandalorian and their name which all of them are the same. Somehow, the box art at the back for this two battle pack are different.



    Content
    The are two bags of bricks and an instruction booklet which is slightly smaller compare to the one in Clone Trooper Battle Pack. Anyway, this set have less bricks compare to Clone Trooper Battle Pack maybe because of the new helmet and jetpack.

    Accessories
    We get two new small pistols, a long blaster and a short blaster in this set, so it lack of one long blaster if compare to Clone Trooper Battle Pack.

    Minifigs
    First and foremost, the Mandalorain have new faces which are different from Clone Trooper but they all have the same face under  the helmet. Their torso are only printed at the front since the back will be cover by jetpack and their leg are not printed.



    Speeder
    The speeder actually looks quite accurate just that the details are lacking and I think it is quite big of a size because is seems quite long. In order to makes it seems like it is hovering, a transparent stud is given.




    Turret
    The turret is just like the one we got in the very first Clone Trooper Battle Pack just that it has a bigger blaster attached to it and it do rotate 360  degree.



    And finally some blaster again.

    Extra pieces
    It seems like there are quite a number of small parts in this set plus the set have lower piece counts. I think the small part are more expensive than the bricks if I recall it right.

    Completed model
    I think the battle pack for this year is very much useful and nice as they give you all the nice minifigs and this one is just a must have whether to replace a Jango Fett or to build a Mandalorian army which I think is cool as well.

    Playability: 4/10 Like Clone Trooper Battle Pack, the assembling process is the playability
    Design: 6/10 I don't really like the design of the stuff inside this set.
    Price: 7/10 More expensive than Clone Trooper Battle Pack I would say
    Overall: 5/10 Is good to have a lot of jetpack and a nice Mandalorian army but not the speeder and turret
