Treat kids to an awesome Battle Pack (75449) to play out their own version of the Siege of Mandalore from Star Wars: The Clone Wars™. This toy building set features 4 LEGO® Star Wars™ minifigures – 2 Mandalorian Super Commandos and 2 Ahsoka versions of 332nd Clone Troopers, a Mandalorian speeder, the Clone Troopers’ barricade and lots of accessories for action-packed play. Activate the speeder’s stud-shooting blaster and fire back with the stud shooter mounted on the barricade. Strap on the Commandos’ jetpacks for aerial attacks with their blaster pistols. This building toy has so much to inspire kids’ imaginations and makes a fantastic small gift for boys, girls and any Star Wars fans ages 6 years old and up.
The packaging gives a very action-packed, Mandalorian battle vibe. The front of the box shows the Siege of Mandalore taking place in a dark city setting, with the Mandalorian speeder flying across the center of the artwork. The speeder is built mostly in dark red, black, dark bluish gray, and light bluish gray colors, with a clear windscreen at the front, sloped armor panels on the sides, and a stud-shooting blaster mounted at the back. One Mandalorian Super Commando is shown riding the speeder, while another flies nearby with a jetpack and blaster. The 332nd Clone Troopers are shown defending from the ground. One clone trooper stands behind the barricade with the mounted stud shooter, while the other aims a blaster toward the attacking Mandalorians. The background shows tall Mandalorian buildings, smoke, explosions, and blaster fire, giving the scene a fast-moving battle atmosphere. On the top right corner, we see the classic red LEGO logo to the left and the Star Wars logo to its right. In the middle and to the left, the box displays the age rating, the set number, and set name. On the bottom right corner, we see the minifigures included in this set. From left to right, these are the two 332nd Clone Troopers and the two Mandalorian Super Commandos. The left side of the box shows a close up of the Mandalorian vehicle. The back of the box shows the speeder and barricade in another battle scene. The speeder is shown with a Mandalorian Super Commando shooting from the rear-mounted stud shooter, while the clone troopers defend from behind the barricade and its mounted stud shooter. On the top left corner, we have the classic LEGO and Star Wars logos. The right side of the box has a warning that states that the set contains small parts, and it is therefore not recommended for children younger than 3 years old in different languages. The top of the box has the set’s name in different languages, as well as a picture of a Mandalorian Commando minifigure on a 1:1 scale. The bottom side is a tidy strip that contains the barcode as well as a few technical bits, such as the place of manufacture, copyright and trademark notices.
The build consists of 116 pieces in total and is recommended for ages 6+. Once finished, you will have a vehicle, a barricade, and 4 minifigures. The set consists of 1 instruction booklet and 1 unnumbered bag.
