It's a big pretty white tank with red stripes, cannons on the sides and hover ability and it looks like a big, jagged Tylenol.
Surely there isn't anything else to know?"Hokey packaging and ancient gimmicks are no match for good detail on your figure, kid."

It should be coming out in June or so, if that's what you're asking.

It comes from the original Clone Wars video game, and was made popular in the SW Battlefront series of video games. It's supposed to be appearing in the Clone Wars tv series but has yet to show up. I believe the side cannons pivot up and down, the top turret opens to house a second figure, and that turret rotates. Other than that, I think everything we know has been covered.

Just saw some hi-res images and while I wasn't impressed before I am now. There's a lot of nice details on this vehicle but what really got me is that it looks like it has little metal d-rings on the front! I'll be looking for this one in the next month or so.
Have: CW Yularen, CW Clone, everything from CW Slave I set except Slave I, TFU Shadow Stormtrooper x2, Evo Trooper, Saga AT-AT Driver, K-Mart Jodo Kast || Want: Vintage Fordo

I saw the latest pic, and I'm a little concerned that it'll be smaller than it should be. Still, that wouldn't bother me, it's just the lack of weathering deco that is its issue, and that certainly won't stop me from buying it. I just wonder if it'll be the breaking point that'll get me into paintwashing and dry-brushing.

Tell me about it JT, I hope this doesn't become the norm on all the vehicles. Originally Posted by JediTricks
