INTRODUCTION
Piloting a Snowspeeder, Luke Skywalker leads Rogue Squadron in an assault on Imperial forces that have landed on Hoth. Equipped with laser cannons and a tow cable, Snowspeeders are T-47 airspeeders that have been modified to withstand the ice planet's brutal climate. The huge Imperial AT-AT walkers can’t be brought down with cannon fire, so Luke tells his group to tangle the cable around the walker's legs - a tactic that successfully brings down one of the behemoths.

Ok for the third time launch yourself into action with Luke Skywalker's Snowspeeder. Sure other Snowspeeders have been made but this one is more to scale so it is a tad bit smaller. It has an opening canopy that holds two action figures (Luke and Dack - sold separately), retractable landing skid, and opening air brakes with the interchangeable missile launchers and non-firing cannon accessory with the interchangeable harpoon launcher and non-firing harpoon gun accessory make this a serious AT-AT toppling threat.

With the recent Luke Skywalker action figure and Dack action figure this vehicle will make a great addition to any Star Wars collection. There is no difference between this version and the Shadows of the Darkside release other than obviously the packaging.
