Ultimate Speeder Bike Review! 1983 - Present

Today we review the Imperial Speeder Bike as it appeared in Star Wars Return of the Jedi. Join me as we look at the original vehicle and watch the transformation over the years up to today's most recent release. Thank you as always for watching!

The new Kenner speeder bike it’s not cheap, but worth every single penny… by far the best speeder bike done so far, great video 👍 thanks for share it

Its crazy how the scenes still hold up in 2023 But back then, I remember he different angles really made you feel apart of the action! And the sound!!! So gpod

Wow! Carrying the torch of @Micah6v8 I wonder what happened to that guy. I’m glad someone like you exists to fill that gap!

Thanks for watching and the support. Happy to share my passion!

You should mention that Power Of The Force had also a similar set as Scout Trooper + Speeder Bike but Luke in Endor helm and cape + Speeder Bike, it also had a weird light sabre with handle that could fit in arms that were sculpted for Speeder Bike handle bars. I don`t see much of it around web.

Awesome comparison! Thank you for the review because there’s so many of these bikes out there, and us fans and collectors didn’t really know all of the differences before buying. I was at the perfect age for playing with the original first speeder bike at the precious age of 11 when Jedi and the toys came out 1983. The latest version of the speeder bike ROCKS!! 🤩🤩🤩

Glad it was helpful!

Excellent collection of star wars speeder bikers and biker Scout troopers keep collecting and may the force be with you all star wars fans the force is strong with this one . This is the way to army build them👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

There is also the black series Shadow Speeder bike & Biker Scout that came boxed along with Shadow Stormtrooper from 2014 The ultimate speeder bike/biker scout will always be the hot toys version though 😊

[@socialdistancewarrior6553]

You are correct about the Shadow Speeder Black Series!

Very comprehensive and accurate review, there’s some KZbinrs that are reviewing the 2023 release all wrong, missing aspects of it, and in some cases calling it a re release of the 2012 version. I understand the mistake is easy to make, but it was nice to see a review of it(along with the review of all the other bikes). Excellent work 👍

[@socialdistancewarrior6553]

Thank you for the reply. You are correct. A first glance the new bikes looks like the 2012 version but upon further examination..... Great to see them release one again for the 40th anniversary!

[@speedmastermarkiii]

The only reason they could re-release the speeder bike at all in the 1990s was that Palitoy in Britain kept the tooling for all the original Star Wars range, unlike Kenner, which trashed them.

[@socialdistancewarrior6553]

I did not know that! Thanks.

Hope there's a Padme/Queen Amidala ultimate review in future - these are excellent!

[@socialdistancewarrior6553]

There will be a Review coming at some point. Can't confirm exactly when. ;) Thank you for watching and commenting!

12:07 I heard it doesnt blow up.great video by the way.

[@Rob1337]

Mine doesn’t so I think you’re right

[@royboy8878]

Great video and comprehensive review of the history of all the speeder bike toys we have got over the years. I just received my TVC speeder bike. As I have never had a speeder bike before I think it is really cool! However, I can't help thinking Hasbro could have saved a lot of money but just re-releasing the 2012 version and giving it a better paint job. The 2012 version is still the best one by far!

[@socialdistancewarrior6553]

I'm Torn. I agree with you. When seeing the difference, I wonder if they lost the tooling?

[@Glockerstein]

Thank you for this review. I had the original ROTJ one but it’s gone. Looks like the Scout Troopers can’t really sit fully on the bike?

[@shakestheclone1995]

I completely missed the 2012 release. Still don’t have one. Tried to make up for that by buying five of the new one 😂.

[@socialdistancewarrior6553]

5? Love it! Got a whole army going.

Can Vintage Kenner Figures ride the PotF one?
