No, these aren’t a new type of walker in the Star Wars Universe. They are a new die cast segment from Hot Wheels where they take the familiar character car concept and apply it to all-terrain vehicles. The All-Terrain Character Cars feature die cast parts and working suspension and come in four and six wheel configurations. The cars have been found at Walmart include Luke Skywalker X-wing Pilot, BB-8, First Order Stormtrooper and Darth Vader.
Speaking of playsets… it looks like Hot Wheels is going to have a Millennium Falcon Ahch-To Playset for Force Friday II. It feature Light Up features and 20 sounds and an exclusive Chewbacca (repack) character car.
