AT-TE For Reals

by Paul

It looks like the rumor I reported about the AT-TE was true, all magnificently true. (Also true are a lot of the other items that were in the original rumor list)

STAR WARS AT-TE

(Approximate Retail Price: $99.99; Ages 4 & up; Available: July 26, 2008)

Star Wars fans and collectors will travel at light speed to toy stores for the chance to take the new six-legged CLONE WARS vehicle for a spin. Measuring two feet long, the AT-TE can transport an amazing 20 clone troopers and is packed with galactic sounds and firing features.

I knew I was right to up my loose clone trooper buying habits. This is so fantastically awesome that I’m ready to cry and laugh at the same time, just like every time I make love.

Now where are the pictures Hasbro?

Thanks to Poe Ghostal for the press release link.

    Is it just me or does that thing look like a heavily armored Budweiser Lizard?

    $99 dollars?! For that price it had better come with the 20 troopers it can transport!
