Star Wars Transformers Luke Skywalker / Snowspeeder Faced with the nearly unstoppable onslaught of the Imperial AT-AT walkers, Luke Skywalker leads the fight to defend Echo Base in this modified T-47 snowspeeder. When blasters prove ineffective against the mighty AT-AT armor plating, he uses the power of the Force to morph into an incredible combat robot, and takes on the walkers toe to toe! Whether in Snowspeeder vehicle mode with its launching missiles, or in Luke Skywalker robot mode with lightsaber firmly in hand, this figure is ready to do battle. Bring home the power of the Force and help defend the galaxy with this incredible figure!
Customer Review: Fun Star Wars Transformers toy
I’ll be perfectly honest, I had to buy this toy twice; first time out of the package one of Luke’s hands was jammed in its socket, and when I twisted it to insert the cannon, the hand broke off followed by the entire arm. Second time I was much more careful, and the joints seemed to be looser as well.
Other than that initial mishap (which I’m willing to chalk up to that one particular toy and not the actual design), this is a pretty fun Transformer. There’s a cool “reveal” of sorts when you start opening the flaps of the Snowspeeder and see how the arms and legs are tucked into the body. The speeder closes back up pretty tightly too, so that if you didn’t know this was a Transformer it would look like you average Star Wars toy. On the flip side I don’t like how the speeder flaps hang at the back in robot mode without folding/locking into anything, and as usual the projectile weapons have to loaded a certain way or they won’t fire properly.
Hopefully your copy won’t be stiff and break apart like my first one did, otherwise this comes recommended.
Customer Review: He really likes it.
My eight year old son is quite a fan of both Transformers and Star Wars, and he knows a good transformer when he sees one. He says, “I really like this one and none of the parts have broken off. It’s got a good design and it’s easy to transform, though it was kind of hard to do the back part at first. Most important (sic), it’s cool looking in both modes.” We’ve read about some of the problems with Star Wars Transformers, and would be inclined to put this Snowspeeder model in the “good” category with Obi Wan and Anakin, as opposed to the poorly designed Luke and Clone Trooper models.
