To each his own however... spidey cars NEVER came with Suby engines. One way to quickly ruin the resale value of any spidey ride is to stick a rice motor in it... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

I prefer the spider car over the transport robot.

It reminds me of the movie Wild Wild West with Will Smith.

It looked like they needed a better or more efficient hydraulic pump and more grip on the feet.

I agree...but it's ability to remain upright (balance) when shoved -- as well as move over uneven terrain -- is no small feat! Cool stuff.

I thought it was cool, needs rubber shoes on the feet, looked like it rode rough.

Imagine if it was 30 ft tall and held rocket cannons!

#0 ft tall, with cannons--didn't Luke and Han fight those in the original second movie? Just wrap wire around the legs, and---well, you've seen it.

Luke did. If I recall correctly, Han's Millenium 914 was up on jackstands at the time.
