Title: The MTT a possibility?
Post by: Rune Haako on July 28, 2011, 12:39:24 PM: Hasbro's sculpter Dave Vennemeyer says it'd be a great idea and that they'd love to do it here.

I've also said it would be a GREAT vehicle to turn out, along with a revamped Flash Speeder and a Gian Speeder. We're getting new Panaka and Security Guard figs, so it would be a smart timing move. IMO. But I don't work for Hasbro, so all my thoughts are guesses.

I might pick this up if it goes on clearance for fifty or so, but not at that price as its a prequel vehicle. Still, everyone knows I am a sucker for big SW Ground Vehicles.

Post by: Luke Sprywalker on July 11, 2012, 04:37:10 PM: Same here Shawn. I really need to have more focus with my collection and the OT is where it is at for me. Not to mention I don't see many ways to repurpose or customize this vehicle.

Post by: Darth Aussie on July 12, 2012, 12:55:25 AM: I 'm thinkingt the same way. Minty VC OT trilogy will be the way to go for me rebooting. Will be moving older stuff and starting fresh...

Post by: Tamer on December 27, 2012, 08:00:07 AM: I just saw the boys at the Yak posted they are seeing the MTT going on clearance at $64.50. Now that might be a price that makes this worth it.
