The CAP-2 Captivator was a model of walker employed by the Galactic Empire and by bounty hunters.
Characteristics
It was a small, one-man vehicle, designed to ambush and capture enemy personnel. It walked on two legs, with the pilot standing upright in a bubble-enclosed canopy. Two arms ending in claws extended from the front of the vehicle with a blaster mounted between them, and a large vice on the back held captives for transport.[1] Its feet contained sensors for spying on its prey.
History
Snowtroopers were equipped with these walkers for capturing Rebel personnel in battle.[1] One such walker was used by the bounty hunter Bossk.
