AN 'EMPIRE' AT 40: BATTLE IS JOINED!


The fast and agile Snowspeeders are quick to attack the Walkers, diving in, out and around the lumbering vehicles and their animal-like legs. frustratingly, Rogue Flight soon discovers that their blasters are failing to penetrate the enemies' heavy armour.

Great ILM image of the Walkers- another of the iconic shots used to promote the film in varied ways and in merchandise back during 1980, enhanced with added laser fire, a Snowspeeder and a fallen background walker on fire airbrushed in by artist/s unknown, possibly by Ralph McQuarrie or Terry Chostner.
