MTV-7: Overview

MTV-7 mini-rig vintage Kenner side

The Kenner MTV-7 Mini-Rig looks for all the world like a tractor with a gun on the front. However, as I child I don't think I ever once questioned the MTV-7's suitability as part of the Imperial ground invasion force on Hoth. You put an Imperial Snowtrooper in the driver's seat and had it running in the shadow of your AT-AT on its way to attack Echo Base, or had it fighting one-on-one with a Rebel MLC-3 mini-rig.

When you push down on the top of the MTV-7 mini-rig the front and back wheels push out to make it look more like a snow bike, but since the mechanism is on a spring, as soon as you let go the MTV-7 vehicle goes straight back to it's original position. This meant that there really wasn't much point at all to this feature in terms of play, although it did give the Kenner MTV-7 mini-rig a very tactile quality to it.

All Star Wars action figures, vehicles, collectibles and Star Wars toys shown on this website are the 3.75 inch scale and from my own private Star Wars collection unless otherwise stated. Where possible original vintage accessories have been used but in some instances I have placed Kenner Star Wars figures with either reproduction weapons and accessories or for Hasbro figures close approximations have been used. This is mostly the case for modern Star Wars lightsabers where the correct item can be very difficult to identify on some ocassions. Vintage Star Wars action figures are shown with their original weapon or accessory when I have them. When a vintage Kenner action figure is shown with an accessory which is not original I have tried to point this out where possible.

All of the Star Wars action figures shown were purchased second hand, usually incomplete, and in bulk. They have been reunited with their original weapons and accessories where we could get hold of them.
