Going to Tosche Station to Pick up Some Cokes
If you caught our recent story on the Coke landspeeder here, I thought you may want to check out a few other links I discovered while scouring for research leads --

Original eBay auction can be seen here

Some pics from a car blog here

And another blog listing here

I had actually picked up the racing brochure pictured in the article a few years ago and wondered what had happened to the speeder -- did it share the same fate as the legendary Star Wars Celica (which is still MIA)?

Fortunately, I came across the speeder on one of my routine eBay searches a few months ago and contacted the owner for a story. I'm hoping to post a follow-up once it finds a new home after the auction. Stay tuned for updates...


UPDATE: Read a new story about the Coke landspeeder here

I was browsing Ebay the first time that came up, and thought it was a nice item. I wasn't even considering paying for it, so I didn't take time to look into it. It was good when Starwars.com let us know what was going on though.

That Landspeeder looks pretty cool, but I wouldn't considering paying for it.

That is hilarious that you just came across it during a random eBay search. Hooray for eBay!

Very cool. Apparently I missed your article, because I wasn't aware of the such an item. Thanks for posting this.
