I should have elaborated that I picked up the TATOOINE speeder bike with the Mandalorian.  I haven't even seen any of this assortment in a store yet.

Funny enough, I bought one at Target on Saturday and just opened it a few minutes ago... I don't know that I'd agree that it's passable... seems on par with the rest.  Here's my standard comparison shot: 




My big question at the moment is where to slot this one, I'd been assuming it was an Endor thing but they grey coloring has me thinking it goes with the Mandalorian stuff.

Is it me or does this Epic series speeder bike appear to be a reuse of the mold from the vintage & POTF2 speeder bikes?

Very similar and clearly inspired by the OG Kenner bike, but definitely not the same.  The new one is modded with pegs to hold a "grogu basket" and it has wheel underneath and I'm not sure it has the flappy air brake in the back.

Yeah, the grogu basket is a sign they meant for it to be a Mando bike and not ROTJ.

Not vehicles, but looks like the Epic 4" line is getting... mech force suits?
