So I bought this bad larry today
The All Terrain Tactical Enforcer!
Usually costs $100, but Target had it on sale for 90 and since I knew I was going to get one as soon as I heard about it and I also figured I wouldn't see it cheaper for awhile if ever, so I bought it. In a few words; it's fucking badass. It doesn't walk on it's own unfortunately, but it packs sound effects, lights, missiles and automatic opening panels on the back. Not to mention room for an ass-load of clones.

Open cockpit and side doors open (there's another one on the other side.) The cockpit fits one pilot and the forward troop compartment has seats for four figures. The ball turrets are linked to rotate with the two on the opposite side of the head (i.e., swing the left ones inward, the right ones swing outward) and they raise and lower a bit too, as well as firing missiles. The big cannon on top has room for one gunner and lights up the cannon barrel and the gunner's screen green when you use one of the three firing sound effects. The cannon itself has one button which makes a one cannon shot sound every time you push it, so you can make it rapid-fire by quick fingerwork.
Open rear cabin. The three panels that make up the back swing out and down automatically with the push of a button and it plays a hydraulic noise while the doors are in motion and a clone commander shouting "Move out!" when they open all the way. There's a bunch of standing room back here, a couple shallow bins for helmets and such and two gunner yokes for the rear ball turrets (which raise, lower and rotate like the front ones but freely from each other.)
Sideview. The legs are articulated at the hip, knee and ankle, but can't really be posed in any more interesting poses than as seen. Besides the button that releases the rear hatches and button on the top cannon, it has three more sound buttons that make a few sounds each. One makes mechanical stomping noises for way longer than necessary, the second one spouts a few random phrases including "All units, attack!" "Droid army is in full retreat!" and "Approaching droid perimeter, we are undetected." The last one works the main cannon, a long firing burst and a clone shouting "All units, fire at will!" then more cannon fire.
And finally, here it is terrorizing my cat to give you a sense of scale. It's probably right around three feet long and weighs about ten pounds and you can't do much more than look at it and swivel the guns because it's so unweldy, but god I love it. It's not quite the SS Flagg, but it's close.
