Drivable X-34 Landspeeder replica by Star Wars modder Daniel Deutsch

Posted by John Brownlee, August 29, 2008 3:48 AM | permalink

Vehicle modder Daniel Deutsch (creator of the wonderful R2D2 projector) had built his own Landspeeder with a custom aluminum chassis. It travels a maximum of 25 MPH and can putter around in a Segway-like sphere of influence: a few miles on a single charge. Perfect for running down womp rats, but the X-34 Landspeeder is the perfect open top for the predictably dry Tatooine summers. Without a roll-up canvas top, Daniel's sweet ride will be filled with stagnant water and slimy leaves within the autumn: a portable, hovering Frop Bog.

The craft he bullseyed womp rats in was actually his T-16.

That's not a hand modded custom aluminum chassis! That's obviously an authentic landspeeder brought back from the future! Look! They even left the delorean in plain view in the background!

Is it sad that I was more impressed by the DeLorean in the background?
