Review: CLone wars Swamp Speeder.
« on: March 11, 2011, 01:19:45 PM »
OK so I picked this vehicle up as I do most.I love collecting vehicle the most.
  It does has an interesting design and I bet with that engine it could go pretty fast.


It doesn't seem to have a lot of fire power but with lots of room on board...the clones will be able to fend off any enemy.This has 4 firing missiles that you possibly lose.Those turrents can swivel side to side.



Look the front guy got shot already but there is a nice shield for the guys in the back.


A pic from behind ;P


The cool thing about this vehicle is all about the seatbelts. They can come off and place a figure behind them and buckle up cause it could be a bumpy ride.Unfortunately after I placed the figure in the seat I could not get the last strap in the hole. I still does look great looking front view though.



As you can see in the last pic...the strap doesn't reach the hole.Maybe a different figure would work better.

Over all I am happy with this vehicle and would consider getting another one.

Nice clear shots, Phil! I like the close up of the seatbelts.  I checked the image codes to see why that one wasn't showing up but couldn't see the problem.
I too have this one and like it alot. I had meant to do a review of it but never got around to it.

Do you keep the cardboard backdrop displays for vehicles like this one?

Great review, expect to see it on the fp in the IR section. I need to find some time to get to work on that.

I keep the DIO scenes.I use them for inside pics I take for my stories.I have a big box of them from SW and the joes.

I think I know why its not showing up.I moved the mouse when I was going to click insert image and hit [email] instead so I erased those after I put in the link and manually put the image code around it. I see the pic in my  Flickr photosteam so that has to be it.

I picked up a cheap camera today that was on sale for $101 with a 4g SDHC card.Its a Kodak C183.Basicly I bought this camera for the wife while I save up for the one I want.It is 14 MP which is great but I want more zoom and maybe a detachable lens.

The clear pics also comes from my light tent.My mole pod mod was without it and you can see a difference. Different camera too but lighting in important.

From the first second when I saw the prototype images of this vehicle, I was just so looking forward to getting my hands on that ISP at least twice!!
I am so glad Hasbro did not mess up this Clone vehicle like they did on the Clone Fighter Tank mold...(the IFT-X is my absolute favorite vehicle, Hasbro didn't do a good job on it and I should stop crying... :'( )
So I finally got the ISP during my stay in the U.S. and I love it!!! The detail is very great, although they could have given more detail to the turbine, but it looks great as it is! Thanks a lot for the nice review!! The ARFs look excellent on the ISP :D
