Not Quite Perfect
" Don't get me wrong, this a brilliant set for any Star Wars fan, but I have some issues with it. Many may wonder "who is the fourth guy?". Well, there is a Battlefront 2 novel that includes a fourth agent, Seyn Marana. Spoiler alert, she dies on an undercover mission taking out rebel extremists, the Partisans. However, the figure in the set has a male head rather than a female one, not that you will take the helmet off... This leads to my first problem. There is no hair for the inferno squad agents and no helmet for Iden. This is a huge playability flaw. WEAR IS IDEN'S DROID. A droid was included in the Praetorian Guards set, why not this one? The other thing that really annoys me is the fact that the helmets do not cover the head at the back. This means skin tone is showing at the back and looks really stupid for displays with an agent facing away from the viewer. I also find the little ship irrelevant and not realistic. Otherwise the figure designs are flawless and have good detail. This is a nice but flawed set. "

Great Figures, boring build.
" Overall, I think this is an excellent set. I particularly love the training droid and think that a similar design could be implemented in the Inferno Squad set for Iden's droid. The actual build is simply some rotatable plates on a stylised stand and is not exciting in the slightest, but meets playability purpose. That said, the Praetorian figures are brilliant with excellent detail, and accompany the Snoke's Throne Room set perfectly. Perhaps another Praetorian guard or General Hux would be more appropriate than the stormtrooper. I am not fond of the pointed mouth design on the stormtrooper, the rounded mouth was more aesthetically pleasing. I know that pip blasters are in the sets for playability, but they are bulky and not good for displays. I'd much rather have the proper blasters that at least resemble that of gun, rather than appearing like a megaphone. Overall, the figures are definitely the valuable component of the set, like any other battlepack. "
