Imperial All Terrain-Personal Walker

[Artizan]

Piece #: ~175

Minifigs: 3

Background: The All Terrain Personal Transport (AT-PT) was a light anti-infantry walker used by the Galactic Republic and, later, the Galactic Empire. It was manufactured by Rothana Heavy Engineering, a subsidiary of Kuat Drive Yards.AT-PTs were made to take single troopers into intense combat situations on their own. They stood only 3 meters tall, and were driven by AT-PT pilots. The AT-PT was--compared to its intended threat, enemy soldiers--heavily armored, enough so that most small-arms fire couldn't penetrate the craft's armor. The walker was armed with twin blaster cannons and one concussion grenade launcher, which were only effective against infantry.

I know calebexo01 has already created a successful version of this infamous vehicle, but i've been wanting to do one for a long time so i decided i should design a version for the contest.

80 views and 0 replies is being unfair to me..

[calebexo01]

then i shall be the first to reply. i like your design and it looks alot like mine (that is probably why i like it) you did better with the color (i don't have the correct pieces in light grey) and i am glad you think mine is successfull.

Great moc! It looks really detailed and accurate.

[calebexo01]

i also like the front gun turret design(wish i woulda thought of that )

random question: can you fit a minifig inside or are they just for looks on the outside?

(now you have 3 replys )

This looks awesome!!!! I liked how you made the admiral

Also, very nice details on the AT-PT I also really liked the front cannon

Good luck on the contest!

thanks for the replies people. calebexo01, if it bothers you that it looks like yours, i can remove it from the contest? i actually began designing it before even the contest started.

for the question if it can fit minifigs, no, unless the minifig's arms are removed.

i dont mind that it looks like mine and i trust that you really did start it befor the contest. it would be hard for the minifig to drive the walker with no arms!

may the best AT-PT WIN! (or may we both lose trying)
