I think the unpainted claw is lazy. I think not including All the accessories, or at least TWO is silly. IF I buy one of these 5-packs, I guess I can have a place to store all the 3rd BAT Accessories that don't have a slot from the other 5 regular BATs that I do own.
If you ask me, their introduction of this 5-pack was a little too late. It should have come out sooner, before most folks had their fill of the BATs.
It is a solid 5-pack though. Could it have been better? Yes. Will I buy one? Not sure, they gave me enough time to amass 5 BATs and 1 DVD BAT (which I painted the silver with a wash so he matches, minus the red face... he's the "leader" anyways). Which is why I think they released it a tad late... I already have all the BATs I want, and I'm sure others are in the same boat with me. Not everyone, but enough that it could hurt sales of an otherwise good troop builder set.
What could have been better? At least TWO freaking accessories. And painted. They cheaped out on the DVD BAT by not painting his attachments, but at least he had all of his accessories. Best option, if they were only going to give us ONE attachment? One new accessory attachment. I mean hell, if they were going to only give us ONE accessory, could they have attempted to at least make it a new sculpt? Gatling gun, chain saw, something?
So close, yet so far from perfect. At least there's 5 BATs, and no "versus Wild Bill" in the set or something silly like that.
