V-19 Torrent

Leave it to Genndy Tartakovsky's studio to finally get a ship right. For the most part the ships in the prequel trilogy lacked that cool factor. Naboo starfighters? No thanks. Hard to picture one of those shiny yellow things strafing a Death Star. BUt the Torrent is perfect Star Wars. Elements of Imperial Shuttles as well as maybe the B-Wing with all those movable parts. S-foils I imagine they're called. I'm glad this ship shows up in the CG series, though I'd love to see it more often.
But wait- I have my very own V-19 to look at anytime I want! And even better, my employer bought it for me! Safety points get turned into wal-mart gift cards get turned into Star Wars vehicles, the first I've bought in the modern era. Other than a black scout bike. Too bad there's no $20 AT-TEs here like there are in Ontario.

These are some of Homie Bear's Star Wars figures. Gotta do something with them right? This page is powered by Blogger.
