Katarn07 Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Of all the small stuff my dad got, that is by far the coolest! The walking action was a neat idea, but it doesn't work well. The vintage/ PotF2/ PotJ AT-ST walking action was better executed even though it wasn't actually walking. It's just so neat looking. Very Original Trilogy-esque. Anyone get Greivous's Wheel Bike? That's by far the worst thing ever designed and made. First, I think it's ugly. Second, it doesn't stand very well. It's alot like the Acklay (mine broke just from standing there).

ZBomber Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Saw the wheelbike, didn't get it though. I'm actually suprised my Acklay never broke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katarn07 Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Why doesn't the Acklay sell for more? I only saw one and it's the one I bought. You know how mine broke, don't you? Gravity pulled him down and one of his leg joints cracked. Stupid piece of crap. He needed stiffer legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So perhaps you have bad luck with toys. :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZBomber Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 Nah, a lot of the Acklays broke, usually if they were postioned on their legs. The body was too much and the legs weren't. It was made more for playing then displaying, as you can see with the cut-open belly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa_0 Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 I havent had any trouble with my acklay and grevious bike. I guess its just bad luck with toys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dark jedi 8 Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 my acklay is o.k. the greivous wheelbike is working well however it took almost 20 minutes to get it standing and i dare not touch or even breath on it now for fear that the worst could happen...

Right, it's fine but it could always pull an Acklay on me. Frankly, I don't care. It's not that cool of a toy. The Acklay, however, is one of my favorite beasts they've made. I got him in a decent stance now but it still annoys me his leg broke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa_0 Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Well I think both toys are cool, ever try getting on ebay to get you a new one for a good low price? I had to get my Reek off of there and got it for a good deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZBomber Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Why would the Wheelbike break? It seems sturdy, all hough, I'm just saying this from seeing it online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because like the Acklay, it's got a giant heavy middle supported by four weak legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
