Title: Way cool! a Speeder Bike...
Post by: DigitalBuddha on March 18, 2015, 06:04:40 AM
We've seen the Millenium Falcon quadcopter. We've seen a TIE Interceptor quadcopter.

But a Speeder Bike? WITH a Scout trooper on top? This? this is perfect. It brings one of the best scenes from Return Of The Jedi to life in an straight up magical way.

By gutting a 1999 Hasbro POTF Speederbike and strapping its bits to a low-flying quadcopter, Adam Woodworth has made a toy that would have made 12 year old Greg throw every penny of his allowance at the screen. Hahah, who am I kidding; Now-28 year old Greg would throw all his money at this, too.

Walt, they finally did it! - http://techcrunch.com/2015/03/13/this-guy-turned-a-quadcopter-into-a-star-wars-speeder-bike-and-its-amazing/?ncid=rss&cps=gravity_1462_-6859243417695029377 (http://techcrunch.com/2015/03/13/this-guy-turned-a-quadcopter-into-a-star-wars-speeder-bike-and-its-amazing/?ncid=rss&cps=gravity_1462_-6859243417695029377)

That's cool.
Wish they had a real life one.
