Bright Hope/Legends

Bright Hope was a GR-75 Medium Transport stationed at Echo Base on Hoth during the Galactic Civil War.

Bright Hope was the last escape transport to evacuate Echo Base during the Battle of Hoth, carrying a large number of passengers, including Toryn and Samoc Farr. The transport was intercepted and disabled by the bounty hunters Zuckuss and 4-LOM, flying the Mist Hunter. The Bright Hope was further damaged by an Imperial Star Destroyer, and drifted into space without power.

Despite the damage suffered, eighteen members of the crew managed to flee in three operational escape pods. The bounty hunters suddenly had a change of heart, and decided to help the stranded Rebels - they were already wanted by the Empire for the capture of Governor Nardix, and they felt the Alliance would accept them more than the Imperials. With their help, Toryn Farr was able to rescue the rest of the passengers, and the survivors reached the secret Rebel rendezvous point, with Zuckuss and 4-LOM now working as Alliance agents.
