Box
No longer have much time to do the review that I enjoyed to do so back then after start my dull working life. Imported these from the states, so it have piece count, other than the serial number and the name of the set. The top of the box shows the actual scale of the minifigs while the back of the box shows the playability of the set.
Content
There are two bags of bricks and an instruction booklet when I pour them out from the box.

Accessories
Usually the short blaster pistol comes in pair and worse came to worse, either one party has share among themselves while I prefer the SE-14 or E-5 Blaster. It comes with binocular too.
Minifigs
The new battle pack comes with two faction in one single pack and that decreases the number of making it tougher to build your army where you get both wanted and unwanted minifigs in the same set. Good thing to the company but not for the fans. Anyway, the rebels and Storm Trooper have both side of their torso printed. Storm Trooper have a new print on his torso and so does the rebel. Also the new Imperial Trooper now have faces under the helmet, although they look sick.
Speederbike
Something for the Scout Trooper to ride on. The new version of speederbike which is slightly different from the Ewok Attack (#7956) set. No playability, but is something nice to be display on the shelf. I can said we have a lot of different version of speederbike from year 1999 to recent.
Rebel Hideout
I don't think this is a good hideout. What about you? Perhaps they should provide us with more bushes that are able to cover up the weapon rack and the missile launcher.
I would have to say is a pretty bad hideout, but have very good part to build tree. Anyway, is a battle pack and TLG expect us to get more than one of this set and modified it with the parts from extra set we bought.
The hideout, came with the same old bored trick that most of the LEGO Star Wars sets had it imply, the flick-fire missiles! And this time it can turn 360 degree and flick it at the direction you like.
Here's a picture of the senior rebel commanding the junior rebel to fire the missiles.
Extra pieces
Shown below here are the few extra parts that are left.
Completed model
I'm always attracted to the minifigs and I am pretty sure even TLG know that the fans are going after the minifigs and they have been producing more and more variety of minifigs. The downside of this battle pack is that the rebel force will have the equal number of trooper with the Imperial force which in fact the Imperial is outnumbered them.
Playability: 4/10 Worst playability that you can think of.
Building experience: 5/10 Happy building the speederbike, disappointed by the hideout.
Parts: 9/10 Speederbike parts and some tree parts.
Value for money: 6/10 RM80 for four minifigs, which two of them are somehow useless when it get too much.
Overall: 6/10 Bad playability, good minifigs, at least the real minifigs, good parts and quite a good price.
