10144 Sandcrawler was a Star Wars Sandcrawler- a vehicle used by Jawas on Tatooine to scavenge junk on the Dune Sea to sell later. It was released in 2005.

Description

The bottom floor of the sandcrawler is also the smallest due to its shape. It has a rotating axle which moves a plate via a gear system. Attached to the system is a pair of plates with cylinders. The floor is black with tan plates and the walls are red-brown with some tan, earth-orange and light gray scattered throughout. There are two pairs of arched doorways. On top of the walls are a pair of tall walls with arches at the top. Another set of similar walls is connected to this, with another pair of arches. At the end you will find some different architecture. There are two sets of cylinders, two on each side, a pair of spray can nozzles, and two engines. On top of the arches are a pair or technic beams. On the bottom are a pair of lights.

On the bottom of the sandcrawler are it's means of propulsion: treads. These can rotate due to TECHNIC axles connected by a gear system.

On top of one of the sections is a plate. It has a few small "domes" and ventilation parts. The front of the sand crawler opens and closes with TECHNIC pins. On either side of the gate is a wall. These open through hinge pieces.

Inside of the sand crawler is a room. The room is gray, black, and earth brown. It has a red light and a green light to indicate whether it's working, a pair of nozzles, a computer, multiple tool holders, and a charger. On top of one charger is a bunch of red lights and it is turned on or off using a switch on the computer. On top of the red/green light is a wheel to turn it on and off. There is a vent on top of which is another switch. The room has no walls. On top is an arch-style architecture and a set of TECHNIC beams. The top of the room is open. It is attached to the roof of the sandcrawler so that it hangs down. A set of slope walls are found on top of the sand crawler. An opening hatch can be found on the top and a piece which has a loop at the top is on it. On top of the room is a cooling grille.

Another section of the sandcrawler is the crane. It has a red light on one side and a green light on the other. There is a small control panel. The crane arm can be pulled in by turning a gear which pulls some string on the end. The crane is on the entrance to the sandcrawler and is used to hoist droids to the second level where they can be disabled, turned back on or repaired.

Minifigures

The Sand Crawler comes with a few unique minifigures. These are three Jawas and a Owen Lars. It also has C-3PO which is not unique.

The Sand Crawler came with a few droids. One of them is green and black with an antenna on top. Another droid is a Gonk droid with a pair of legs and a head which can be opened. A third droid is a white and orange droid with four legs and an antenna. Two Astromech Droids are included, one of the R2-D2, the other with a slightly taller dome. Another droid is similar to a battle droid with a simple head.

Background
