This is a repaint, but it’s great nonetheless.  It’s blue, so you might expect this to be part of the 501st Legion’ arsenal.  You’ve probably seen this before, so there’s nothing new.  It’s got firing missiles, rotating cannons, Delorean-style side-opening doors, places to fit 3 figures inside, pegholes for several more to ride, and the bonus storage compartments.  It’s got wheels, which give it the mild illusion of hovering, like the landspeeder.  My only complaint is that the wheels should have been replaced with rolling balls, to allow the tank to slide in any direction, just like in Battlefront.  That’s a big bummer to me, which prevents this vehicle from being superb.  Nevertheless, it’s very cool.
