jedinews.co.uk has posted some pics of the painted version of that TRU exclusive Crumb Bomber for us to salivate over. She's looking pretty sharp, boys. I'm liking that side ramp/door.


How much do you think that they are going to charge for this bad boy?

The new features are cool but I'm going to pass on the Crumb Bomber not a fan of this particular nose art, I'm interested to see what the other one looks like though and  may get that one if it appeals to me. From the pic it looks like two different versions possibly a revision of the Lucky Lekku or maybe it's the Spaceward Ho, third image in on the bottom row.

Unfortunately I managed to miss every version of this vehicle when they were released.
when they were on clearance i also chose not to get them, and have regretted it each time I see one.
I really want this one, but i think it will be quite some time before i see one locally and hope to see one on clearance around christmas if at all.
i like the troop/jump door and the enclosed/space worthy cargo doors.

Has anyone heard anything about the Wal-mart version?

Awright!!  I'm sure we'll be buying one or two here - I can see one in a hanger-bay dio already as part of of mine and Brendan's Battlefront Collection, with a hanger-bay full of Battle Droids as Clone Pilots and Marines boil out of it.  Love those solid doors.

I wanted to mod one with the complete doors, but chose not too.  Now I'm glad I didn't.  I'll be picking this one up, I kinda wish it were slightly larger size, it may be so the new gunner tuurets can fit inside while the doors are shut.

I'm really hoping it is!  Not exactly expecting it, tho...  I'd pay for one big enough to hook to an ATTE, tho!!

I'm sure that it will be the same size. Only the price will be inflated. :(

Looking at the front page news stories and saw this and man is it gonna be hard to pass this one up. I still wish they would release one in the WWII bomber style paint jobs we saw on the previews for the new Clone Wars series. I guess my favorite one to date is the shark tooth version. I wish they would do an alive drab with the shark teeth! I saw a Coast Guard pilot ship in these grey colors with shark teeth mouth and it was a cool looking vessel while I was on vacation.

I think that I have seen a10 warthogs painted up like that. You should have shot us a pic of that one that you saw. I am still wondering what the walmart version of this new gunship is gonna look like. I'm sure that we will know by the time that SDCC rolls around.

Hoping the "Crumb" is a decal instead of paint apps.  Based on the last gunship (LL) I'd be out of luck; but with the ARC-170's ridiculous wampa actually being a decal, I think there's a chance.
