TLC "Hoth Speeder Bike Patrol" Battle Pack

[Darth_Anton]

The set is "rare" in general around me.  I've only seen it once... 

Weird that this one was one per case, however, I think given that the set is a disappointment, I think it'll be shelf warming soon enough.

The set is not as horrible as I thought. The figures suck Rancor balls but the Speeder bikes are really nice. They are perfect for the new Obi-Wan in clone armor if you have the republic screw up versions. While the are not identical to the episode they look good with those figures on them.

[Darth_Anton]

At least someone likes the speeder bikes.

Anyone have any pictures of this set? I would like to see some detail of the figures. Don't really care about the bikes as they are the old POTF2 tooling AGAIN . At least Hasbro could refix with the new handle bars, then I might be able to stand it then.

Maybe a review on this set to if anyone has anything.

I still haven't seen a pic of an imperial logo- I had thought that was what I had, but I guess not. Have their been side by side pics of the two logos.

Hmm, 'scum doesn't have pic yet.

Gotta say, I think the figs are pretty disappointing. The Snowtrooper arms just don't fit into the biker scout torso with any sense of symmetry, making it look awkward - like the arms are too big for the body.

Thanks for that. I saw the hi-rez pictures of them on Yakface today. I totally agree with the arms not working for the figure. I will not be getting this set as there is nothing worth it in there. I might have, if Hasbro would have retooled Scout torso and added the Snowtrooper backpack to the bike and a hose to contect to the Scout.

Yeah, just looks odd.

[Darth Broem]

 It is okay for something that was not on screen.  It's just something more to add to a Hoth diorama if you wanted to.  I will be skipping it to put the funds towards something else though.

While not film/cut scene/whatever you wanna call it accurate how would he look like with a snowtrooper helmet?  Just curious if it looks so odd just cause his head looks so small.

[jedipurge]

Hmmm.  Thanx Jayson looks a lot better then the scout helmet, still not perfect but better.  Hows about a skirt/kama?  Might have to get him after all.

They're actually 100% expanded universe jedipurge.  They were only ever in the Incredible Cross Sections books.  I don't even know they've been outside of that. 

[Darth_Anton]

I have an extra VTSC Snowtrooper and Scout lying around. I keep meaning to attempt my own kit bash to see if I can do better.

[CHEWIE]

Broke down and bought the damn thing today.  I have no idea why.
