10178 AT-AT

[CopMike]

This is from Rebelscum:

A staff member at the LEGO shop in Milton Keynes (UK) has confirmed that there will be a new LEGO AT-AT (10178) later this year (rumour points to November) - could this be the motorised version that starwars.com polled last year?

Someone please bring out the interigation-kit and get down to Milton >:-)!

I wouldn't count on a speeder bike. Most of the space inside will probably be taken up by the motor :-/

[Starwars4J]

Haven't we known about this for months?

[Scouty]

Yeah, but not truly confirmed. CONFIRMED!

[Piranha]

Set number 10178?

Then it is an Ultimate collecter series release then

All Past UCS have been 100-something

Such as:

10179

10174

10030

10143

10144

10175

10134

All of those sets are UCS and Include Jawa sandcrawler,DS and other models

Interesting 8-

[Wyvern]

This is great news... I wonder if this UCS AT-AT would also be similar to UCS Falcon, I mean if the UCS AT-AT would also includes the minifigs.... *sweet*

[Zaktan of the Shadows]

I hope it doesn't looks as crappy as the prototype.

How can it be UCS? Wasn't it stated in the SW thread to have the same number of pieces as the last AT-AT, and 4 figs? Kinda points to system-scale. They may just call it UCS though...eh, who knows.

Yes that is what I was thinking

The Sandcrawler wasn't to scale either and yet is an UCS

So much for my dreams of twelve figures :-D

(It better not be that one posted on the vote for the next UCS)

If it is....................

I don't even want to think about it

The 10131 Tie Collection (another set with the 10000 number) set has some figures also.

[mutley777]

Having a 5 digit number does not make it a UCS set! Just a shop@home exclusive.

Amen to that!!

When will people realize this?? :-|

But still... another set this year.

This is the most expensive year ever.

Ok, how got the pics?!?!

[snefroe]

haven't we seen pics of a prototype in the not so long ago past? that model was not all that brilliant as i recall...

[Trionx]

man... I was hoping that the new AT-AT wasn't true because I already have the old one but at least the new one's motorized!

[Scouty]

Remember people, we're still not 100% sure that it is going to be motorized!!!

[Trionx]

hmm, true, but it WOULD be cool :-P

[Ras 74]

hmm, true, but it WOULD be cool :-P

... or not!!

That will make the price get higher, and probably make the design abit worse.

I hope I

[Grand Moff Viceroy]

The prices would be higher but I would prefer an AT-AT that looks better than one with a motor. I saw the so-called prototype and it is hideous. I would rather have a re-release because I would like to add more snowtroopers if it isn't an Endor Moon setting to the Hoth Base.

The prices would be higher but I would prefer an AT-AT that looks better than one with a motor. I saw the so-called prototype and it is hideous.

I would also prefer a non-motorized AT-AT. The three reasons for this are:

-AT-AT which walks motorized would be much more expensive

-I don't take in a motorized AT-AT becaus I can move its legs myself and don't want always to buy new and expensive batteries

-AT-AT which walks motorized would perhaps not have the room for a speederbike which I really want to have

Besides, I really hope that the AT-AT will come with a General Veers and a cockpit for two AT-AT Drivers.

[Trionx]

[Corvus]

Why do people think it will be a UCS set? If it's going to be motorized (it seems that it's going to be), it will probably be smaller so it can actually walk.

[iamded]

(though there might be wires sticking out :-/ )

In the Dark Side Developer set it doesn't have wires, it uses that big control thing. But this isn't a technic set, so I see what you mean. Still, I don't think they'll use heaps of wires, and if they do they'll cover it up.

I have to admit, if it is motorized you could have some fun with the Snowspeeder tripping it up. :-P Much like the DSD set. :-P

P.S. Could someone post a prototype pic here? Thanks.
