I am very surprised to find that there is not already a review for this set on EB, given the prominence of- and apparent affection for- the set.

I wouldn't say it's the master piece of MY collection but it is one of its best sets :-D

And it is another one I'm glad I missed its previous incarnation (along with the MTT, X-Wing, B-Wing, snowspeeder and Boba's Slave 1).

Though I do have some complain, like th cockpit is a bit too big compared to the main body and the mandibles too small. But that's only minor issues...

Oh, and my masterpiece is the first AT AT (Which I'm sooo glad I didin't miss, considering the new motorised one doesn't look half as good :-P )

Well, Actually it's the UCS ISD, but its greatness takes him in an entirely new league compared to the other sets, so in this one, it's the AT AT.

Yeah, the first AT-AT looks better, but the second one is motorised! X-D *y*
