Check out my early thoughts on the one and only battle pack we will be getting in the Clone Wars line for next year!
Clone Trooper Cutup: I really like the look of this figure. I'm glad Hasbro went back against their word, and will release another cadet to give Hevy some company. Cutup's only accessory will be a DC-15 blaster rifle. I have seen a review of this figure already, and overall, I think this is better than the Hevy figure. Better detail from my point of view. Contrary to popular belief, Cutup actually has a new face-sculpt, and that is one thing I find better on Cutup over Hevy.
Bomb Squad Clone: This looks like a great figure. The paint looks fantastic, and the logo's on the shoulder are fantastically detailed. The only accessory with this one is a DC-15 blaster. It has been three years since we saw this Clone on-screen, and I had given up on seeing a figure of one. So, it is excellent Hasbro is going back a long way to release this Clone. It's a pity that there is no ankle articulation, but that's to be expected now.
Clone Trooper Hardcase: I totally can't wait for this Hardcase figure. I loved Hardcase during the Umbara arc, and I can't wait for this figure. Hardcase's accessory is a DC-15 blaster. It is no surprise that Hardcase is in the Stone sculpt, seen as Jesse & Kix were too. My most wanted figure out of this battle pack, and I hope we see a phase II version next year.
Battle pack as a whole: This is a very good battle pack, and I will definitly get one. It includes three clones I really want, all for different reasons. Cutup because he will display well with Hevy, Bomb Squad because the detail is so fantastic, & Hardcase because I love the character to bits, and the figure looks great. My only complaint is it feels so random, like Hasbro just decided to make 3 random clones and throw them in the same battle pack. I just hope we still see Corporal Comet and a Wolfpack Clone in phase I soon...
