Force fact:
These three Mini-Rigs, (MLC-3, MTV-7 and PDT-8) as they are referenced, were, like the Imperial Troop Transport, vehicles “just off screen.” We now refer to these as Expanded Universe toys. Toys which were not in the film but were in the background and were similar to other items of the time. Often maligned they were Kenner’s brilliant attempt to release inexpensive vehicles to go with the figures. They were good sellers and new ones were introduced all the way to the end of the line.
