Star Wars: Complete Vehicles (2013)



title:

The hardcover reference book, Star Wars: Complete Vehicles, was made available on July 29, 2013. This book, a DK Publishing release, is part of the Incredible Cross-Sections series and presents detailed internal views of almost every vehicle from both the original and prequel movie trilogies. Building upon the earlier Star Wars: Complete Cross-Sections, itself a compilation of the four Cross-Sections books for each movie, Complete Vehicles introduces four brand new cross-sections. These include the 74-Z speeder bike, the X-34 landspeeder, the EF76 Nebulon-B escort frigate known as Redemption, and the MC80 Star Cruiser called Home One. The content that was in the older books was also expanded upon. Several vehicles that were smaller and didn't get their own pages in the previous editions were given dedicated pages. In addition, various pages were rearranged and reorganized to better fit the shorter height of this book when compared to the previous versions.

Publisher's summary

This expanded edition is a must-have for any Star Wars fan who wants to delve into the inner workings of the spaceships and vehicles from all six movies. It's a fan favorite that now includes new cross-section artworks and a plethora of new photos._

Star Wars: Complete Vehicles is filled with visual explorations of over fifty key Star Wars spacecraft and landcraft, such as the TIE bomber, Imperial shuttle, A-wing, B-wing, and many more. The full-color cross-section artwork provides in-depth analyses of each craft's weapon systems, engines, hyperdrives, cockpits, and construction secrets. This offers an unprecedented look at the vehicles that power the Star Wars universe. Star Wars: Complete Vehicles now includes new and previously unseen cross-sections!_

Continuity

  • On pages 117 and 206, the word "Soulless" is written incorrectly as "Souless". Also, on page 117, the first paragraph makes the grammatical mistake of saying "an Utapaun P-38 fighter."
  • On page 121, Alaris Prime is wrongly identified as a moon orbiting Kashyyyk. In reality, it orbited the planet Alaris.
  • Within the Death Star cross-section, the labels for "Carrier beam crystal", "Main power generator", "Firing field amplifier", and "Static discharge tower" are misplaced and incorrectly positioned.
