Rebel Recon Gliders: Quick, fast, light and silent. They fly into Imperial held positions, collect enemy dispositions (size, activity, locations) then exfiltrate undetected. Rebel Commanders use that information to formulate successful attack plans.

Now this is one of the coolest creations I have seen in a bit. They so remind me of the JOE Gliders I had as a kid. These are epic! Off to share.

Here'a a custom vehicle I did way back, found a photo of it going through my files: Republic Speeder, built for speed to hunt down any remaining Jedis, made from a Joe Artic Vehicle and repurposed for the Star Wars universe being the same scale, built a crew cage with two seats, dual laser cannons mounted underneath the nose, and added a rear cannon that swivels left to right as well as up and down

Pretty cool if you ask me. Kinda nice to see a full size 3.75" ship. The new ones all seem to be undersized to me. Off to share.

Awesome vehicles! Man it would be great if Hasbro went back to the mini rig concept. But I like these.

Thanks Starchaser, yes the cannon on the back makes it look the part in the SW universe, and with the front slope on the main ship it resembles the Imperial Shuttle

Totally agree, the mini rigs are great additions, they're small enough to fill in and add details to dioramas

Not really a vehicle but a weapon system:
This is the DFW-20, a dual firing autolaoded cannon that tracks and eliminates aerial or ground threats through motion sensors and heat signatures, the turret rotates left or right, and the cannons elevate and depress, the hatch can open or close and has a vision block for the operator to see through during heavy conflict, this weapon system is light enough to be mounted on vehicles, be placed on top of buildings and be air transportable or air dropable.

Looks great to me. I have been off the internet for a week so it will take me awhile to sort through all the great new posts, but this one caught my eye and is on the front pages.

The dual cannon turned out really well. I like the concept and the execution is excellent.
