    I remember getting this and the millennium falcon for Christmas in 1982, for a nine year old it was like winning the lottery

      The most I had was the AT-ST and the x-wing plus a few figures. I remember collecting Kellogg's tokens and sent off for the Emperor figure. It wasn't available in shops at the time. Ah good times...

      "Impressive, most impressive" As I was born in 79, I only caught the end of Star Wars toys. Best comparison I can say is with MASK, I got Boulder Hill, Rhino & a few others all for one Xmas!
      I was shocked to see Boulder Hill under the tree, as my Dad had said it was way too big to be in our house. It's now in my garage, awaiting the day I clear the crap away to get to it.

      Disney franchise is Instantly forgettable. Cant even remember what happened in the Rise of Skywalker (or whatever its called) The mandalorian and rouge one were good though. At least my youngest boy now wants to watch the original trilogy. Oh yeah

    I got mine for Christmas as a surprise gift. My parents told me they couldn't find it but I had enough in Christmas money to buy one later on and my folks and I were enjoying our gifts and my dad asked if I'd like a Coca-Cola since he was gonna grab one for himself and of course I said sure and as he came waking back into the room he had the AT-AT in his arms with my Coca-cola, I remember being so excited. Unfortunately the box got damaged over the years. It was Definitely the best surprise Christmas gift I ever recieved and made a lot of fun memories including my attempt at a stop motion animation film with the AT-AT lol. Thanks for sharing this 😊

    I still remember the Xmas when I got one of these. I was getting ready for school and my uniform always used to be on the back of the sofa. I remember I couldn't find couldn't find my socks of all things, so looked behind the sofa to see if they had fell down... Low and behold there it was, one AT-AT box sitting there waiting (looking back, not sure why my parents didn't put it behind there after wrapping but hey).
    I still have it by the way, missing the pulsating guns and control room top, but still have the side guns and door.
    Still have my Millennium Falcon & Slave 1 too, but the Ewock Village, AT-ST, Speeder Bike, Rebel Transporter, X-Wing, Tie Fighter, Tie Interceptor, Jabba, ST-AT, B-Wing and Snow Speeder all seem to be missing or berried in my parents store room.

  • @StopTheStinkTV

    Wow that brings back some magical memories of childhood. All my Star Wars gear including this and the INT-4 is still up in the loft at my folks house. It still has its box too as does my (heavily played with, but still mostly intact) Millennium Falcon, Slave 1 and SnowSpeeder . Good times and thanks for sharing.

    @michaelhoule2134 6 років тому

    Yup I remember getting this for xmas around 83 or so. I got a whole shit ton I think about 23 figures, a x-wing and this. I already had the Falcon. I never had a lot of the little toys like the vehicle with the steam roller like wheel's. Yup it came with a shit ton of extra stuff.
    I turned my at at legs into a warhammer 40k scale reaver titan around 92 or 93. My brother put it back together and we sold all my old SW toys around 98 or 99.... Great video, thanks for the walk down memory lane.
    heh my guns broke and my mom had to use her hot glue gun to stick the gun barrels back on.

Also picked up some vintage figures in great condition and original weapons. Total was $130 for 8 figures and this. Love your channel btw! I hope you review return of the Jedi figures soon.

    Oh man, I'm laughing like a little kid with excitement. As I sure everyone was wanting to see the guns in action, as soon as you started to demonstrate the gun fire I was laughing like a little kid. They say the difference between Boys and Men is the price of the toys. I'm sure this At-At is worth alot these days. Awesome video! It's cool to see a grown man still get excited over a childhood toy. Well done

    • @actionjackman

I don't remember having the light up guns on mine though since I think my parents bought it at a yard sale one year. Since I always mixed GI Joe and Star Wars together, this was sometimes Cobra's ultimate weapon. Oh.....and Cobra always won, unlike in the cartoons.

She wanted one so badly when she was a kid and she told me she was denied it because she was a girl and girls shouldn’t have something like this. The one I got her has seen better days, but it’s mostly there, and she loves it. Got one for myself too, looks great in my collection

    The AT-AT Commander you showed for scale was the first figure I ever owned. Unfortunately though, due to it's hefty price, I never had the AT-AT. I think it was like 30-odd quid, wasn't it? A fortune back in the early 80s!
    Sadly, the Millennium Falcon was seemingly out of my mum's budget too. I did get an AT-ST and Vader's TIE Fighter though.
