INTRODUCTION:
Tauntauns are a species of snow lizard found roaming the windswept snow plains of Hoth. The Rebel Alliance domesticated the swift creature during their stay on the ice planet, and used the animals for patrol duties outside Echo Base. The animals came in useful as the Rebel technicians had difficulty adapting their repulsorlift speeders to the subzero temperatures.
Both Luke Skywalker and Han Solo rode tauntauns on Rebel patrol missions, planting a network of
life-form sensors along Echo Base's perimeter. Though Tauntauns are
sure-footed and well equipped to handle Hoth's daytime temperature, the chilling extremes of a Hoth night will prove deadly.
Han Solo is included with the Tauntaun. He has bendable legs so that he can sit on top of this trusty steed. The Tauntaun has running action when you press down on the button cleverly hidden as part of the equipment pack that is attached to the Tauntaun.
