Description Extended Information
 
DeAgostini DASW44 Star Wars Owen Lars' Swoop Bike [with Collector Magazine] "Swoop jockeys have the brains of a blister gnat - and about the same life expectancy."
- Han Solo

A swoop, also known as a swoop bike, was a type of repulsorlift vehicle similar to a speeder bike; in fact, it was in essence simply an overpowered version and described as "an engine with a seat." Swoops are to speeder bikes what airspeeders are to landspeeders. Swoops were often used by gangs and criminals, and such organizations bore the mantle of swoop gang. After the Galactic Empire outlawed podracing, swoop racing became the favored alternative. Swoop racing was popular on many planets, including Manaan, Tatooine, Nar Shaddaa, Telos (on Citadel Station), and Taris (prior to its destruction) to name a few. There were, in fact, grand tournaments held on the Taris tracks before the Sith bombardment. Some of the best known swoop racers of their time were lost in the planet's destruction.

Pictured here is a replica of a Swoop Bike. Now in stock!
