I never care...  Ausies get a lot of things early I've noticed.  Good for them.  I have a Dak and AT-AT Commander already...  I'm pretty content to sit around and wait for the rest of it to hit.

Just wondering, but how much will this go for again? I'm deciding whether or not I should buy it. I want this very much, but I can't go too far beyond my budget!

I beg to differ. We haven't had anything before the US in a VERY long time. Last time I remember was a couple of years or so ago, and even then it was just role play stuff...

$99.99 at most retailers.

As for the wait, it can be a bit of a tease when other collectors are getting stuff first, but hey - if someone wants it early THAT bad, they can pay more. 

My real problem is with actual distribution, not when someone finds new figures a few weeks before someone else does.

Agreed.  Especially in today's marketplace of mega-retailers, we "should" be able to find the same products everywhere.  That'll never happen, but its how Target, Walmart and TRU (atleast) should operate.

The more pics of this bad boy that I see, the more excited I get. I'm planning to buy one at full price, and hopefully score a second on sale or clearance. The troop bay looks like it has a ton of fun features, and would make a great background for posing figures or shooting photonovels or whatever.

It looks like Hasbrotoyshop.com has the Big AT-AT up for pre-order. So if you're confident that your local stores won't have them, or you just need to pay $20 for shipping plus tax, then this might be your best route!

I dunno about that guys, I think I recall CW 2008 stuff leaking out in Ausie land first.  Maybe not en masse, but I seem to recall it surfacing there before here.

Even if that is correct it would be the 'get a lot of things early' part I would not agree with.

Oh mamma.  The FedEx delivery man dropped off a nice surprise for me tonight.   ;D

This new AT-AT is so, so, so, so so sweet.  It's big, it's fun, it holds a ton of figures.  I've been goofing around with it for well over an hour and I still can't believe how awesome it is to finally have one in my hands after basically lusting after one ever since I saw it in-person at Toy Fair.

Thank you Hasbro for making this fantastic toy.   8)
