Don't forget that Hasbro is also doing a rocket-firing Boba Fett. He's the sculpt that came out around the time of the infamous Holiday Special and just before The Empire Strikes Back!

I new about the figures and vehicles but is the AT-AT going to be in vintage packaging only for Toys R' Us and in the new blue packaging everywhere else? Or is the AT-AT exclusive just to Toys R' Us?

The AT-AT (and other EMPIRE STRIKES BACK vehicles) will be sold at various retailers (K-mart, Walmart, Etc.). But they will only be available in Vintage style packaging at Toys R Us... at least that is what I understand.

With Kenner releasing vintage-style packaging, and now a rocket-firing Boba, I wonder sometimes if they aren't considering a re-release of the entire vintage action figure line. If EMCE could it with Star Trek and POTA, and Mattel with MOTU (and Playing Mantis with Captain Action, etc.)... kinda makes me wonder.

I am going to have to agree, that AT-AT does rock hard, and is at the top of my list of things to get on August 1st!

That thing is huge. It makes the old version look like a child version.

[starsky]

the question that's haunting me right now is....how many should i get?

[bizzaro megomauler]

I want to use it as a pc tower, build my computer into it, so I HAVE AN EXCUSE not to put one away...lol

Yah it is 5 figures that you have to buy! I just did not anticipate it looking so incredible on the original card.

Did anyone pick up the 4-Lom and Zuckuss from the Jedi-Con that was in Germany???? I got mine!

Alright... just passin' the time waiting for the release of the AT-AT.

With all the talk of Hasbro's offerings of "Vintage Style" packaging for some of these vehicles, I decided to see what that would look like for the new AT-AT.

I have no interest in getting the AT-AT in the Clone Wars-style packaging. For me, it's the Vintage Kenner style box or nuthin'!

So... I had a little fun with Photoshop.

Now, I know they will not go in this direction due to size practicality. But I designed a box that would hold the new AT-AT FULLY ASSEMBLED (just like the vintage Kenner walker).

So THAT means a box with dimensions that are about 26" high x 30" long X 13" wide.

In a vintage Kenner style, I'd like to see something like this:
