Breaking with tradition, TLG released three of their four minifigure battle packs this year.  They also separated from the 2012 precident of putting two 'good guys' and two 'bad guys' in each set.  I hated that format and was happy to see the old four of a kind rule re-instated.  In  addition to the three $13 sets, we also got the $15 Battle of Saleucami, which has five figures.  Does anyone else think these sets are better than previous years and will have a decent return?  :/

I noticed this as well.  There is quite a variety and the quality of minifigures is much better than in the recent past.  I can see some very nice returns on these Battle Packs once again.

Death Star Troopers should do well, not sure about the viability of the Clone Wars battle packs in the long term.

It's funny you should say that, because the Death Star Troopers has something like a three star rating on LEGO Shop at Home.  Also,this years other battle packs are sourced from Revenge of the Sith, not the Clone Wars.

with the 3 battle packs you get 4 figures and no are spindly little droids. the guns are cool too.  the colors and contrast are sharp.  

i am loading up on all of the main trooper packs.

havent' gotten ANY droid-loaded Battle of Saleucami as I anticipate this will be the stinker left over on clearance.
