While I was watching the recently-added-to-Youtube Empire Strikes Back documentary, I noticed a quick clip of this vehicle being driven across the snow during the filming of the Hoth battle.

I definitely didn’t recall seeing that vehicle in the film and I don’t think there was a toy released for it either. It’s a pretty cool looking piece of equipment but I think I see the reason it wasn’t featured in the film – it moves a little slow and more like a snowmobile than a speeder.

A quick Google search lead me to more photos, mostly from a Lego collector’s forum:

Maybe this little vehicle will be my first scratch build model?
