The Build: The speeder itself looks pretty good, reminding me of the First Order Snowspeeder, and the sand blue bricks are nice to get. It's just your standard battle pack speeder, nothing special, but not terrible.

The Figures: As with any other battle pack, the figures are the main event here. The Sith Trooper looks absolutely amazing, and it's nice to get in a cheap set. The two Sith Jetpack troopers looks equally good. The helmet and jetpacks are the same molds as the First Order Jetpack Trooper, just done in red. The Sith Officer is the least interesting of the four, although accurate.

However, while each of the figures are good individually, the selection chosen could have been better. The ratio of one Sith Trooper (the main bulk of a Final Order army) to two Sith Jetpack Troopers is disappointing. The Sith Officer feels like it would be better off included in the Sith TIE Fighter, or perhaps in a later Episode IX set, and could be replaced with a second Sith Trooper in this battle pack.

Overall: I can recommend picking up one of these battle packs in order to get these great figures, however, it makes a poor army builder with only one regular Sith Trooper included. Had this set included two Sith Troopers, it would've been easily been a 5-star set. As it is, I can only give 4 stars.

The Figures: This set includes Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, and an Imperial Shuttle Pilot mislabeled as an Officer. Luke is the same Episode VI version we've had since the 2015 Death Star Final Duel, while Vader features the new 2021 torso and legs. Both figures look great, and are nice to get in together in a cheaper set than the 2021 remake of the Death Star Final Duel Unfortunately, Vader lacks the printed arms seen in the aforementioned set. The Pilot looks nice in any Imperial Army, and it's always nice to get a proper pilot figure for a starship.

While the figures included look great and are all nice inclusions, considering the lack of arm printing on Vader, and considering that the 2021 X-Wing set has 4 figures at $50, at least one more figure should have been included in this $70 set: perhaps a Stormtrooper or an actual Imperial Officer. Right now the figure selection feels a little lacking.

Building the Set: This set took me about an hour to build at a relatively leisurely pace. While there was some repetition in the builds of the wings, the time spent on these parts was short enough that it didn't grow boring. Overall it was a pretty fun build.

The Shuttle: Despite the roughly ~250 piece decrease in size from the 2015 Imperial Shuttle Tydirium, this Shuttle still looks rather good. Looking at this Shuttle straight on, or even from the side (at a downwards angle), it makes a nice display piece. The fin on top looks imposing, and although the two wings could have been just a little bit longer, it's not too big of a detraction. There's a bit of a gap between the "head" and body of the shuttle, although it doesn't look too bad from most angles.

However, when you look at the shuttle from below, or even at the same height, the bottom of the cockpit is somewhat awkward. The technic bricks jutting out make it look blocky, and the cockpit itself isn't closed off as well as it could be.

Overall, this set is best off displayed somewhere below eye level, preferably with the wings lowered.

This set also has some good playability. For an interior, the cockpit can only seat one figure, but I can see it easily being modified to fit two, like its predecessor. The body of the shuttle can hold two more figures (such as the Luke and Vader included), with room for a couple accessories to be laid down alongside them (although there a no clips to attach them to). The mechanism that keeps the interior closed works surprisingly well - you can lift the Shuttle up by the fin and the mechanism will still hold the body shut (I would still not advise flying it around by the fin).

The shuttle is small enough that it's easy to fly around, and two stud shooters underneath the cockpit round out the playability.

Overall: For every mark, this set is solid, although it could use some minor improvements.. The figures are good, although they could be improved with a couple minor changes. The build is good, although it could be improved by a couple minor changes. The build was fun, although not anything unique. The $70 price point doesn't feel too unreasonable, with 660 pieces and a good-sized final product, but $60 may have been a better price, especially with only 3 figures.

If you already have the 2015 Shuttle, then there isn't much of a reason for you to buy this set - the $100 version is undoubtedly the better set. However, if you don't currently own an Imperial Shuttle, than I can solidly recommend picking up this set, especially if it goes 20% on Amazon or Walmart later. While it's not perfect, it's still a good-looking and fun-to-use set, with some nice figures to get, even if the selection could have been improved.
