On closer (and less sleepy) inspection, here's what I see in this model:

- This thing is huge. Looks to be a foot or so tall. While this isn't the
'real' scale, I think it's convincingly gigantic and the details and
proportions are better than I expected.

- Figs: I see Luke on the grapple line, an AT-AT driver fig, and 2
Snowtroopers (!!!)

- A white new-style speeder bike


Hmm, I dont recall seeing a speeder bike during the Hoth scenes, but I have
noticed one thing: 3 new minifigs, prolly going to be very much in demand,
and I would guess they are only going to be available in this $89.99 set...

(...) I can't remember exactly, but were some speeder bikes added in the Special Edition? As for the new figures, the driver just looks like a Stormtrooper torso and helmet with light grey arms and legs - I converted my two Tie-Fighter Stormtroopers (...)

(...) What???? I think there is something wrong with your dog. ;) Dogs knees face forward in the back. Do you mean the front legs? My two cents, Mark M. (21 years ago, 8-Jan-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build.mecha)
