Speeder Bike for Sale  16/04/2014

 

Star Wars Biker Scout Speeder Bike

Last summer, the Soapbox Sith Team built and raced a replica Speeder Bike for the Redbull Soapbox Derby.

Now it needs a new home....

The "Soapbox Sith"  were looking for a challenge and wanted an iconic Star Wars vehicle that people of all ages would recognise. They started off by designing a Tie Bomber where the pilots would head down the track head first, but this was deemed too dangerous. 

Instead, rather than copy everyone else by sitting inside, the Speeder Bike idea was born.  It had to be to scale or as near to scale as possible within the restrictions of the race.

Measuring 4m long (2m with the front section removed) and around 1.2m wide at the widest point (rear), the Speeder Bike is fantastic for someone with a passion for interesting Star Wars items.   

Perhaps you have an Imperial Scout Trooper costume?  Or are you a looking for a lifesize prop for an event? This will be the perfect accompaniment! 

You can even still race it, as the speeder is in fully working condition (but make sure you check the brakes first and watch out for Ewoks and trees.... )

The Soapbox Sith are looking for offers over UK £500, with all proceeds going to Breakthrough Breast Cancer, the same charity that  they raced for.

More images of the Speeder Bike can be found HERE.
