Nothing bad about this vehicle, kenner did a fantastic job with the AT-AT, I never had it when I was a kid. But it was sold in denmark and I also got a few later when I began to collect star wars toy

I always wanted the AT-AT, but never had it. It was the second item bought when we started collecting.

Love this toy. Remember being so excited about getting it. The catalog must have mentioned how big it was because I definitely remember using a ruler to mark how tall it was on my bed.

Probably my favourite vintage toy to look at on display especially with Luke and his utility belt - hell yeah it's so cool

Same! Asked for it for several Christmases/Birthdays in a row. I remember one Christmas, there was a pallet full of ESB Palitoy AT-ATs at the entrance of Tesco Home and Wear, Cirencester. One of the first things I bought back in the 90's, when I started collecting.

Like many people, I desperately wanted an AT-AT as a kid, but sadly never owned one. Luckily my friend across the street did own one however, and so Star Wars playdates meant I could still enjoy one

Here's mine:

I know what you mean. I really wanted the AT-AT Walker but the Hasbro one was hard to find in the UK at that time (1998). The only shop near by that sold it was a shop called Kool Collectable in York for £150. No way could afford that at 11 and my parents weren't willing to pay that sort of money for a toy. Use to know a guy who had the GoBots Command Center. Asked him if he wanted to swap it for a game I didn't like. He said yes. Knew it wasn't an official AT-AT but though better then nothing. When I managed to get a Kenner one by part exchanging a vintage 12 inch Boba Fett (which cost a £1 at a table top sale). I gave the GoBots Command Center to my cousin, as he wanted to use it as an ATAT. Good times.

I love this vehicle, never had one as a kid, my misses bought this for me about 4 or 5 years ago and it's one of my favourite pieces in my collection.
