ROTS JUGGERNUT

Post by hunter » Mon Aug 01, 2005 8:39 am

Hi

Heard a lot of rumours (especially fm the guys in china square central) that the ROTS Juggernut will be released in late August 05.

However, I did a check on the internet and could not find any piece of news relating to the release nor pictures.

Anybody out there has actually seen it?

And also about the new clones - green clone commander, shock trooper and black clone pilot, heard a lot of people talking about it but also cannot find any websites on it.

MAN!!! This tells me how out of touch I am with the collecting scene insofar as SW is concerned. What on earth is the ROTS Juggernut??

The Juggernaut is a vehicle from the fictional Star Wars universe. (It was given the nickname "Rolling Slabs")

First used during the days of the Old Republic and later by the Galactic Empire. Considered the most powerful military land-vehicle (until the AT-AT moved into full production), the Juggernaut served in numerous conflicts during the Clone Wars and the Galactic Civil War, notably the defense of Kashyyk portrayed in Revenge of the Sith. A number of these tanks were also acquired by the Rebel Alliance.

It had five sets of wheels and had cockpits on each end of the craft, thus being capable of going in opposite directions without turning.

Armed with three heavy laser cannons, one medium blaster cannon and two concussion grenade launchers. Could carry up to 50 troops or several light military speeders, speeder bikes and other small repulsorcraft.

It wouldn be feasible for them and think about it, there is no driver made for turbo tank...:)
and a turbo tank can easily stretch over 1meter?
