Yes, I have a thing for Star Wars walkers! This is my entry for the Chibi Fighter contest over at FBTB. Enjoy!

By invite, please check out my midi-scale AT-AT. You can see more pics on Mocpages. Here's a pic of the side:

You shouldn't need to split the legs. Just use a new speederbike or motorcycle chasis so the fig can "straddle" the bike.

This looks pretty cool and fairly accurate! I like the minifig hands as handlebars idea and the shape looks right. The only thing I think is missing is the round turbine on the nose. Can't see if it's there in the pics.

Thanks! I did kinda "borrow" the official foot design:)

Thanks! I made it a point to fit the requisite figs (per the rules), but I hate the fact that the official sets only hold 1 pilot. So I fixed that:)

Wow! This is definately one of the cutest entries in the contest! You definately captured the look along with all the details and shapes.

Thanks, Kim for the invite to this great group and thanks for blogging my builds! I really appreciate the exposure and support:) Thanks for the nice comments and sorry for the huge pics. I'm not sure how to make them smaller, though. Any hints?

Thanks! This took me about 2 weeks to finish and YES: a ton of trial and error (and several Bricklink orders)! The biggest challenges were the head and the hands.

Here's another midi-scale SW moc for your pleasure! You can check out more pics on Mocpages: Here's a side view:

Thanks, man! I never thought about trans parts for the feet, but I'll consider that the next time I try a new version of this (which I'll probably do).

Some of these would be great! I've already seen a pic of a new MF, so that's on the way. It looks just like the last one. I agree, a UCS AT-AT would be amazing, but I'm a sucker for the classic walkers. Here are some other ides: Hoth Patrol: Have Luke, Han, 2 Taun Tauns, some Hoth scenary, and an actually accurate Probe Droid UCS Echo Base Launch Pad: Interior of the base with maybe 1 vehicle and room to add other official sets like the MF and X-Wing a new UCS X-Wing (cause I didn't get the first version) I like the Cloud City idea, but what if TLG did a series of little sets that go together like they did with Jabba's palace: Dining room scene, Han's torture scene, Leia, Chewie, R2, Lando escaping from the Stormies scene, docking bay scene, etc I like the Dagobah training set idea too. Maybe have playable features like floating rocks, R2 and even an X-Wing? Maybe some little scenes on the Tntive IV: Stormies/Vader entering, Leia recording her message, etc. I've got a TON more, but am tired of typing...

Thanks! If you check out the other pics on Mocpages, you'll see I did make the back-end plates a stud longer than the front. I know that the feet have a gap where the joint connects, but for stability's sake, I had to make a solid connection. I don't agree about the cockpit, though, but thanks for the comments:) I added a pic of the side view.

Thanks! It "was" very sturdy. 90 percent of the weight was on the front and back legs with the hinge joints.

Thanks, man! I got the link to work finally. Actually, I built this a few months ago. The date in my camera is off. The hinges are solid and this thing "was" very sturdy. Oh, and the Doc already saw and commented on this and I got his blessing:)
