The Toy Collector's Point of View
By Tan Kian Seng
The AT-RT Walker is one of the great vehicles that emerged from Episode III, Revenge of the Sith. It was featured for a couple of seconds in the actual movie but that doesn't really matter, does it? ;-)

To complete the Kashyyyk Battle Scence Collection, most Star Wars Fans would probably have to own at least of these AT-RT vehicles; the other being the BARC Speeder with BARC Trooper.

However, the visibility of screws on the AT-RT toy doesn't really looks good in a Collector's Diorama Setting. But at a price of just about US$15, how much more could we expect.

Another "un-collectible/undesirable" aspect of the AT-RT is that the AT-RT Driver figure that comes with it, is non-articulated. This could easily be solved by substituting that non-articulated figure with an articulated one from the Action Figures Series (Card #54 if I am not mistaken).

Overall, for a kid, this would be a cool toy.

But for the collector, the finishing of the toy leaves much to be desired. But with some imaginative positioning, one can still use the toy in a Kashyyyk Battle Scene Diorama without exposing its "flaws". An example would be to just place it in the background with the exposed screws concealed with artificial foliage leaving your Wookie Warriors, Commader Gree and Jedi Master Yoda to battle the Battle Droids in the foreground!

Fun, especially as action figure is included with the vehicle.
By Valnastar
My 8-year-old son loves this toy and couldn't wait to get one. It's a terrific representation of the small walking scout vehicles seen in Star Wars Episode III, and with some AA batteries this toy will actually walk, if a bit more awkwardly than the "real" thing. Sold from about $15 to $20 depending on where you find it, it's a better deal and more unique than some of the other vehicle toys released for Episode III, especially since the action figure of the driver comes with the vehicle.

The Star Wars AT-RT Walker is AWESOME!!!!!
By Spider Robot
I love this new toy from Star Wars the moment I received it!!!! It arrived very fast and on time!!! The service was very professional from Realdeals4every1. I recommend buying this toy or anything else that this store sells, they're great!!! The Star Wars AT-RT Walker is AWESOME!!! It is exactly the replica from the same mechanical walker from the Episode III movie. I am very happy with my purchase but also much happier that the packaging also included a BONUS CLONE TROOPER figure!!! I couldn't be much happier with my purchase!!! THANKS GUYS!!!!
