Any one want to take a picture of the ATTE beside vehicles such as the BMF and ATAT.

Check out the AT-TE thread at Scum.   :-X  They have some pretty good comparison pics.

thanks  ifett, I completly forgot about that otheR Site.

some of the pictures with the clones are just making this thing so much more tempting especially after watching the movie :-\ but I must resist temptation. I just gotta keep telling myself its $100 I can spend on other stuff.

Any one want to take a picture of the ATTE beside vehicles such as the BMF and ATAT. I still havent seen one loose and I am wondering what the scale is (numbers dnt help me lol). Although I doubt I will buy this at full price and I patiently waiting for a clearance sale on it. Besdes with how fast the clone wars figures went on sale at TRU i have a feeling they will do the same with the TE to boost sales a bit.

I got mine today, it's big... only downside is that the middle legs keep falling off..... here are some pics:



There can never be enough clones.....

With a bit of luck and patient. You can easily solve the problem with the AT-TE Falling legs.
The trick? a bit of "Mighty Putty" will do the job!
Not only does it work, it's easy to find and proves more reliable that plastic tubing!
The best part is it lets me move the joints real good so that I can do incredible poses!

Looks like Hasbro gave the following answer to a few sites this week...

We have confirmed that some of the AT-TE's do have middle legs that breakaway more easily than intended (breakaway legs are a deliberate design feature of the vehicle). We have addressed this and we offer replacement middle legs through our Hasbro Customer Service Dept that should solve the issue. Consumer Affairs can be reached through our web site at hasbro.com. We are sorry for any inconvenience. Our objective is to make sure that consumers are 100% satisfied with their AT-TE, so anyone who is having an issue, please contact us.

It should be interesting to see if folks are able to get new legs and to see if the new legs are actually a better fit...  kudos to Hasbro for listening, actually checking things out, and trying to fix the problem for the unhappy folks out there.  :)

I hope Hasbro is going to be willing to send two sets of legs for those of us who have purchased more than one AT-TE. Granted my second one is still MIB, but if one day I decide to ditch being a packaged collector, you better believe that my second one will be opened up and I'll want to have the fixed replacement legs on hand.

I figured that Hasbro would do something like that. Kudos to them.

Note how tightly secured they have the legs to the vehicle? All twist tied up...

I got a letter about legs for the AT-TE and they're sending me all six when they get them in...  Not just the center legs.  I got both an email and regular mail correspondence on it too.  Very thorough of them.
