About this item
"Use your harpoons and tow cables. Go for the legs."
The walker that turned Hoth into a rout. Those slow, heavy steps on screen were stop-motion, animated a frame at a time by Phil Tippett and Jon Berg, which is exactly why they look like nothing on earth could stop them. Palitoy's version was the biggest box under plenty of Christmas trees in the early 80s: a full walker with a head you steer from inside and room for a squad of Snowtroopers in the body. Snowspeeder and tow cable sold separately, sadly.
This vehicle was originally released with the following:
- 2 chin guns
- Instruction leaflet
