SDCC 2017: Toys”R”Us Exclusive Luke Skywalker Landspeeder… FOR KIDS

After watching that video, you now have diabetes.

Among the announcements at SDCC, Toys”R”Us‘s exclusive Landspeeder made a splash. Unfortunately for adult fans of Star Wars, it only holds 130 pounds. So unless you’re the before in a Charles Atlas ad, you can’t ride it.

“Speeder” might be considered a bit of a misnomer, considering it tops out at 5MPH sidewalk (no roads, kids!) and 2MPH in reverse. But boy, will your kids be surprised to roll up to home and find that you’ve arranged for Stormtroopers Sand People to raid the place while they were tooling around.

The Radio Flyer Landspeeder does look shockingly accurate to the movie version, though. The charge lasts about 5 hours, so I’d bet that will be more than enough time for your kid to find a desert hobo to teach them the ways of the force. Though you’d probably prefer it if that didn’t happen.
