The '''''Mist Hunter''''' was a modified [[Byblos Drive Yards/Legends|Byblos Drive Yards]] [[G-1A starfighter/Legends|G-1A starfighter]] that was owned by [[Zuckuss/Legends|Zuckuss]], a [[Gand/Legends|Gand]] [[Bounty hunter/Legends|bounty hunter]].

==Characteristics==
[[File:Mist_Hunter.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Map and schematics of the ''Mist Hunter'']]
The ''Mist Hunter'', which was named for the [[Ammonia/Legends|ammonia]] mists of [[Gand (planet)/Legends|Gand]],<ref name="Toy" /> was specially commissioned by a group of [[Gand/Legends|Gand]] venture capitalists led by [[Zuckuss/Legends|Zuckuss]] himself. The vessel was originally a standard G-1A [[Transport/Legends|transport]], though the modified vessel made use of [[Repulsorlift/Legends|repulsorlift]] technology used in the construction of [[Talon I combat cloud car|combat cloud cars]]. The ''Mist Hunter'' was piloted by Zuckuss and his [[Droid/Legends|droid]] partner [[4-LOM/Legends|4-LOM]], with room for eight passengers and a metric ton of cargo. It was armed with twin assault [[Laser cannon/Legends|lasers]] and a [[Tractor beam/Legends|tractor beam]] projector.<ref name="Starships 8" />

At some point, Zuckuss had installed a [[Voice-activated computer|voice-activated]] [[Computer/Legends|computer]] into the ship. The computer, which was acquired from [[Mechis III/Legends|Mechis III]], was unreliable at times. With this equipment, Zuckuss could request a search of his own ship or lay in a course to a specific location, without actually having to input the data himself.<ref name="OPF" />

Zuckuss commonly kept the [[Starship/Legends|ship]] filled with ammonia, so that he would not have to wear his [[Breath mask/Legends|breathing apparatus]]. There were three prisoner cells, located in the cargo bay,<ref name="Starships 8" /> and each were [[Airlock/Legends|airlocked]] so that [[Oxygen/Legends|oxygen]]-breathers could survive. Alternately, the cells could be filled with ammonia while the rest of the ship's interior supported an oxygen [[Atmosphere/Legends|atmosphere]]. Zuckuss had made use of this feature in that manner when, due to ailing health, he confined himself in one of the prisoner cells while en route to the [[Alliance to Restore the Republic/Legends|Rebel]] [[Haven (rendezvous point)|rendezvous point]].<ref name="OPF" />

==History==
[[File:CCG_Mist_Hunter_2.jpg|thumb|left|200px|[[Zuckuss/Legends|Zuckuss]] in the ''Mist Hunter'']]
During the [[Battle of Hoth/Legends|Battle of Hoth]], the ''Mist Hunter'' exited [[Hyperspace/Legends|hyperspace]] amid the skirmish and joined [[Death Squadron/Legends|Death Squadron]] in pursuing the Rebel transports fleeing the besieged ice [[Planet/Legends|world]]. Zuckuss and 4-LOM disabled the transport [[Bright Hope/Legends|''Bright Hope'']], but, finding themselves at odds with the [[Galactic Empire/Legends|Empire]], eventually helped the Rebels reach their secret rendezvous point.<ref name="OPF" /> Toward the end of the [[Galactic Civil War/Legends|Galactic Civil War]], the ''Mist Hunter'' had become a familiar sight in both Imperial and Rebel fleets,<ref name="Toy" /> until its pilots once more returned to their mercenary ways.<ref name="HtOHH">''[[How the Other Half Hunts]]''</ref>

==Behind the scenes==
===Inconsistencies===
There is an inconsistency regarding the size of the Mist Hunter.
In the ships first appearance: *''[[Of Possible Futures: The Tale of Zuckuss and 4-LOM]]'' it was stated to have multiple cabins and prisoner cells aboard and was able to carry not only its two man crew but also 108 survivors from the Bright Hope and two medical droids [[2-1B/Legends|2-1B]]<ref name="OPF" /> and [[FX-7/Legends|FX-7]],<ref name="Who's Who">{{InsiderCite|74|Who's Who in Echo Base}}</ref>.

If the standard G-1A starfighter is 15 meters long (bigger than an X-wing, but smaller than a Y-wing) it would not be possible to carry such a large number of beings. Therefore, either the ship Zuckuss and 4-LOM operated is so heavily modified that it has a capacity similar to a [[Sentinel-class landing craft/Legends|''Sentinel''-class landing craft]] (at 38 meters long, it is a ship more than twice the size and built specifically for troop transportation) or is a different ship altogether. As the events surrounding the rescue from the Bright Hope are the first canon appearance of the ship and integral to the characters and events, it must be assumed that all information stating the Mist Hunter is a fighter sized craft is in error.
