My sons are big fans of Star Wars. This item was seen (and played with) in a store and quickly added to their Amazon Wish Lists. This is a large vehicle that includes several cool features.

My only complaint is that for the price, more then just one clone trooper should have been included. What’s the point of storming the enemy with just one guy? You will need to purchase additional troopers to make it more fun and individual clone troopers are available at a hefty price (and rising fast). There is also a barc speeder as an additional vehicle. My sons were not impressed with it when placed alongside the massive tank-like vehicle. The back flips open to reveal plenty of storage and a place to hide your clone trooper army (says it holds 20 figures). The wheels are sturdy enough and it held up well under rough play by a group of young boys. However, I am not so sure about the longevity of the attachments that stick out on top. There is a gunner that shoots out missiles (they appear to be the same weapons from other Star Wars sets which is nice). The vehicle emits sounds from the Clone Wars and I’m thinking the three batteries needed are not included.

My sons are very anxious to see this toy under the tree. My husband wouldn’t mind seeing it either….

Great toy! My 6 year old star wars fan found this toy to be a great addition to his collection. He plays with it for hours. The turbo tank is very durable!

My son REALLY wanted this vehicle for Christmas so we wound up getting it for him. I just assembled it today (to have it ready for the big day) and was pleasantly surprised by it. In the past, I have been disappointed with the Star Wars toys because of the price and the quality. However, this toy has a lot more to it than I expected and the quality seems very good. The wheels pop on and feel very sturdy. The only flimsy part, that I see, is the gun on top of the vehicle. As I inspected the toy – it kept popping off. Other than that it seems like there is a lot to do with this toy. Many star wars characters can be in the truck, there are many doors and compartments that open, it talks and makes noises, and there are 4 different guns that have shooters to go in them. The only reason I gave it 4 stars was because my son has yet to play with it because it is an xmas gift. Looking at the price on Amazon though, I would never buy it for that price unless you are a die-hard Star Wars fan. I bought ours at Costco for half the price so if you are buying it this Christmas (2009) – check out Costco if you have one.

My son received this Turbo Tank for his birthday and is thrilled. It has seen hours of play already. It is much more durable then the AT TE he got last year – which continually had the ‘legs’ pop out of their joints.

This toy includes some details that are not included in the product description: beautiful design, perfect details. It comes with a clone trooper and a transportation ship.

It’s the first star wars vehicle i bought to my son and he’s glad to use his troopers inside the tank. The vehicle also includes 8 different sounds that you can use with 4 buttons (see the customer images).

Internal details are even more amazing. I definitely recommend this toy.
