(...) The model definitely has technic treads, and making them stay in place and still have wheels would be unnecessarily complicated. I'd put money on it being just a poor choice of words on that page. Wouldn't be the first time, after all. :) Jeff (...) (19 years ago, 5-Jun-05, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.year.2005, FTX)

(...) That's exactly the way I interpreted the description as well and the only reason I mentioned it. I specifically remember the phrase 'rides on wheels for smooth motion'. -Dave (19 years ago, 5-Jun-05, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.year.2005)

Very cool! Interesting detail that it has wheels, so the treads must be for show. I'm going to LOVE this set! I amy have to buy a couple just so I can keep one built. -Dave (19 years ago, 4-Jun-05, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.year.2005, FTX)
