Thought you all would want to see this. I guess it is now official. This was reported on rebelscum.com.

I'm all for the big vehicles, but the turbo tank is just bland. The AT-TE was fracking amazing, the BMF was amazing, the Turbo Tank is just whatever.

I'll wait till I see one out of the box to decide, on my money's fate.

As will I wait to see one out of the box, but we shouldn't have to wait long what with Toy Fair coming in the next month. Smile

Yeah.

Can't wait.

I cant wait on the turbo tank ,i'll put it right next to the 99 dollar at-te that the legs fell off of and wait for the wheels to do the same.

It certainly has a plethora of special features, but it still looks a bit bland. Basically, it's a giant shoebox with wheels. I'm not sure this will have the same kind of selling power that the AT-TE and BMF had--especially since those vehicles had a long history of demand behind them.

Of course, the economy will hopefully be well on the mend by the holidays, so people may be more inclined to buy the tank.

I have to agree, it does look a bit bland, but I still think that I will be "forced" to help keep the line going by purchasing it.

No, but seriously, it could have been better, but I think that it will still look nice next to my AT-TE or within my Kashyyk diorama. Smile

Went and ordered one from Big Bad Toy Store, yes it's about $20 more depending on where you get it, but without a firm release date these might be tough to find.
