SNOWSPEEDERS at target $19.99.....

[morpheus282]

Originally, when I saw they were releasing another snowspeeder this year, I thought it was an easy pass. For the last 5 or so weeks, I've been reading one positive review after another about this ship on the forums. So with the sale, I picked one up today. I must say, I am very impressed. The last snowspeeder I purchased was in 1980. This new one is very much improved! The attention to detail + the ability to choose between play features and movie-accurate features is a great win from the design team at Hasbro. You know, every once in a while they do an excellent job and we should let them know.

Ditto to all that. I had the original as a kid and it always bugged me that it was so freaking huge. The firing guns on this one had me worried, especially since every picture I saw had them in place instead of the movie versions. I got it on sale at Target last week, and I would have gladly paid full price at TRU after seeing the wonderful job the've done on it.

I too am considering buying a second for Wedge and Janson. Now I've just got to get a Hoth Wedge...

HOth wedge is soooooo easy to build....new luke snowspeeder pilot with the head from the bwing pilot from evolutions, and finally wedge's helmet from the target xwing.....PERFECT!!!!!!

Too much expense in that for me and since I don't have spares of any of those so I'd be sacrificing three figures for the sake of one. I'll probably just wait for the inevitable repaint of the snowspeeder with orange stripes with the included Hoth Wedge that will be a Walmart/Target/TRU exclusive in the next couple of years.

Has anyone bought one of these after 9/4 to see if they are still $19.99?????
