I think we need to see some update pics of your army!   :D
This is the way.


I have spoken.

Okay. I couldn't resist and picked up 4 more tanks, so I'm up to 8. Sad part is, it's going to be tougher and probably more expensive to find the pilots for them now.  ::)

You could partially avoid that problem by customizing one of them into a Rebel-captured tank. Paint a rebel insignia and maybe some stripes on it. Then you can just throw a couple fleet troopers in there.

I've been toying with the idea of doing something like that with one of my Republic gunships or AT-TE's.

Just seeing this now. Neat idea.

I did pick these up to round out my imperial battalion, though. Still can't find a wiff of Tank, pilots. Wonder how many Tank Pilots were made vs the actual tank. The feel the tank pilot is begging for a re-release.

Price is down to $29.99 again on Amazon right now - grab 'em while you can.

I picked up another Tank at that price - going to try to convert it to a hauler and see what it looks like with a mini-rig on the back part.  Or maybe rig up some type of cannon on the back and make it into more of a mobile FLAK gun type cannon (or something like an Empire version of the Clone Wars AV-7 or US M1128).

Oooh...I'm trying to decide if I want a third one. The second one is still in the box, but I could maybe try a Rebel-captured one, or do something "Mandalorian-ey" like the AT-ST.

Good grief... Amazon just reminded me that I bought one on December 12 of last year for this price.  I can't believe these are still sitting around.

Sincerely. I have as many HoverTank pilots as I have tanks.

This is going to either be rebel-captured or Mandalorian era in my collection. I have enough tankers to pilot two tanks.

When the tanker went up for PO I got what I could and I wound up finding the wave several times at retail so I was able to outfit 9 with tankers and commanders.  I want more tanks but the lack of crew will bug me.  I like the ideas expressed here though for variant tanks ala German armor.  I was fiddling around with an AT ST custom idea similarly styled.  An AA variant or missile pod one.

No sign of these here locally at 5 Below yet, but I did see they have a designated “$10 Below” section now near the front of the store, so I’m guessing that will be where these get stocked when they arrive.

I did see a whole bunch of those super cheap new cake-topper figures they had just put out and man those things are atrocious.

Impressive?  Sad?  I like to think a little of both. 🤷‍♂️
