Description

Chicken walker on Endor

Fans often call it the chicken walker, and the nickname fits its bird-like legs and boxy head. In Return of the Jedi, AT-STs patrol the forest moon of Endor, where the Ewoks bring several down with logs, ropes and sheer determination, and Chewbacca manages to take one over. The walker also makes a brief appearance on Hoth in The Empire Strikes Back. Smaller and quicker than the AT-AT, it gives the Empire a scout that can move through terrain its bigger walkers cannot.

Built for display

As an Ultimate Collector Series set, 10174 contains no minifigures and puts all its effort into the walker itself. It is a model to stand on a shelf or in a cabinet rather than one to battle with on the floor. Because the AT-ST balances on two legs, it deserves a stable, level spot where it will not be knocked. Seen from a slight angle, the head and legs together make the clearest silhouette, and the walker looks as if it is striding forward.

Colours and inventory

Light bluish grey, dark bluish grey and black dominate, as you would expect from Imperial machinery. Blue is the fourth main colour, which is not obvious from the walker's appearance on screen, and the parts list on this page shows exactly where it is used. The 1,069 pieces come from 164 unique part types, a balanced mix that keeps the build interesting without an overwhelming number of one-off elements. Separating the two greys before you start will make the building sessions noticeably smoother.

Second life for the parts

A dismantled AT-ST leaves you with plenty of grey and black pieces that suit mechs, walkers and vehicles of your own. The complete inventory lists every element with colour and quantity, so you can plan builds or check a used copy. If you collect several Imperial vehicles, the ‘What can I build?’ tool is a quick way to see which other sets your combined parts could cover, and which ones would need only a handful of extra pieces.
