Defence of Hoth Reviews
Brick Fanatics
“It is a fun little set and a better realization of what a LEGO Star Wars minifigure accessory pack can be. You can see what the LEGO Group is trying to accomplish here – a compromise resulting from market forces otherwise pushing prices up. Yes, you can still have your... More battle packs at this ridiculous price increase, but to help with that here’s something a little smaller that’s at least a little closer to the previous price you were used to. It’s a more creative attempt at a solution than just hiking up the prices, as it at least brings new ideas into the market.”
“This character pack will come at the right time to add some content around the set's craft. 75313 AT-AT, possibly accompanied by the biped of the set 75322 Hoth AT-ST. The three minifigs provided are generic enough to allow their accumulation. The brown torso is the one that... More will also be delivered in the set 75322 Hoth AT-ST for the single rebel soldier provided and the other two minifigs are identical, only the head changes.”
