Even though Anakin leads an army in the Clone Wars, he still has within him the boy who restored and rebuilt a junked Podracer and piloted it to victory. Dissatisfied with the performance of his Jedi Starfighter, he modifies the vehicle to meet his own personal preferences. He increases the engine power, adds a vertical thruster and makes other mechanical and aerodynamic modifications to enhance the starfighter's performance. He also adds four laser cannons and a proton torpedo launcher to increase the fighter's firepower. Finally, he has added an ingenious forward-mounted hyperdrive enabling him to travel through hyperspace without the Standard use of a Hyperdrive transport ring.

FEATURES INCLUDE:

Body Center Proton Torpedo Launcher
Rotate The Droid's Head to Fire The Torpedo
Four Laser Cannon Mounts
Opening Canopy (fits Clone Wars Anakin)
Positionable Rear Vectored Thruster
Forward Mounted Hyperdrive Thrusters
Wing Stabilizers Open For Cruise Mode Or Retract Them for Attack Mode
(Actions Figures are Sold Separately!)
Also comes with labels and instructions. Toy Vehicle is for Ages 4 & up.

ANAKIN'S MODIFIED JEDI STARFIGHTER

Anakin's Starfighter began as a standard Delta-7 Aethersprite that he extensively customized to suit his demanding tastes for speed and control. With four Taim & Bak laser cannons bracketing each wingtip and a proton torpedo launcher along the ship's dorsal center-line, the speedy combat vessel had greater firepower than the standard fighter. Anakin's fighter underwent numerous modifications in its lifetime, meaning that its performance varied depending on its latest features or what tricked-out power plant it sported. Obi-Wan Kenobi was concerned that his Padawan was regarding this special project as a possession something frowned upon by the Jedi order. Jedi Master Saesee Tiin, a skilled Starfighter pilot, encouraged the young man to keep pushing the fighter's limits, since he hoped to see the improvements pioneered by Skywalker integrated into the next generation of Jedi Starfighter. Despite the Jedi mandate of severing all ties to his previous life, Anakin raised a few concerned eyebrows by including a paint scheme similar to the one used in his beloved Podracer. Since the varied campaigns of the Clone Wars saw atmospheric combat as well as spaceflight, Anakin incorporated articulated stabilizer foils to assist in maneuverability. The main vectored thrusters included articulated mounts that allowed for greater aerial agility. Perhaps his boldest addition was a pair of hyperdrive thrusters that gave him limited hyperspace capability.
