Posted February 7, 20223 yr Strength and balance AR-Project SB00601 UCS scale MOC of the AT-RT (All Terrain Reconnaissance) first appeared in Star Wars episode III Revenge of the Sith. Here proposed in the livery of the 501. The design and construction was a challenge to the laws of physics and a "balance exercise". Composed of 4395 bricks + 1 minifig it is in perfect scale with the TR-Project. Edited February 7, 20223 yr by StarBricks
February 7, 20223 yr Holy crap, looks awesome! edit- Mirko, I think you mean AT-RT not -ST in third sentence. Edited February 7, 20223 yr by KevinMD
February 7, 20223 yr Very nicely done, as always, really like the clone trooper, your very good at building brick-built figures.
February 7, 20223 yr That's quite incredible - this must be the biggest LEGO AT-RT out there, right? I love that the scale matches the TR project as well, any chance of a side-by-side picture?
February 7, 20223 yr Happy birthday, Mirko! All the best. Hope You never get tired of designing new mocs! Do you make a break?? "Coming soon" date is feb 2024 Cheers Stefan Edited February 7, 20223 yr by treffer21
February 7, 20223 yr Happy Birthday Mirko! i have been looking forward to what is next. I don’t know how you find the time but I am glad you always do. Great work
February 7, 20223 yr This is ridiculously monumental! I'm always a sucker for a brick built helmet and your shaping is on point. The engineering in this is beautifully elegant, well done!

Working at night is not good! :-) 15 hours ago, Mandalorianknight said: Incredible, I can't believe that thing actually stands, that's amazing! He stands upright, in perfect balance. I have been testing the construction for 6 months and it has not dropped 1mm .. 9 hours ago, treffer21 said: Happy birthday, Mirko! All the best. Hope You never get tired of designing new mocs! Do you make a break?? "Coming soon" date is feb 2024 Cheers Stefan Thanks for the greetings. I have no intention of taking breaks but I always have very little time to devote to this passion of mine and the commitments with my family and my work in the office in the last two years have increased. Thank you all for your good wishes and compliments. It was a demanding MOC but I am very satisfied with the final result. As usual, I favored design and proportions but I devoted a lot of time to the study of solidity and balance
February 8, 20223 yr Happy Birthday Mirko! Wow what a fabulous build! Can't wait to start bugging you for the instructions! :P Fabulous!!

Really, to make something that's structurally dubious in "real" life out of materials assumably much weaker than the in-universe vehicle, and yet have it be so stable...Go build some bridges, man! And Happy Birthday, of course! Edited February 8, 20223 yr by Mandalorianknight

And Happy Birthday, of course! hahaha! In fact, in my work I deal with anti-seismic structures for residential buildings. Perhaps that is why I dedicate a lot of time to studying the statics of my MOCs.
October 17, 20222 yr Looking forward to this @StarBricks. Any idea what the release date is likely to be?
October 27, 20222 yr Author I'm working on the instructions right now. I don't have a certain date yet but they will surely come out before the TR-Project instructions. I believe in the first months of 2023

September 5, 20231 yr @StarBricks - Hi Mirko. How is the AR-Project going? Are we likely to see it in 2023?
September 12, 20231 yr Author Hi Hackenbacker, the AR-Project instructions are ready. I just have to do the final checks and correct the texts. They should be available by the end of the year.
