Yes, his AT-AT is MOST impressive. To be fair(biased more likely). I preferred his AT-AT to yours(Shaun) and Dave's(Eaton???). I make this claim as I was at Brikfest last year and had the opportunity to see firsthand your guys' Echo/AT-AT display. I (...) (22 years ago, 19-Feb-03, to lugnet.org.ca.nalug, lugnet.starwars)

(...) The ships inside were a mixture of Joe's and John's, I believe. Some of the detail (small crane, the 2 small trains, and a fuel tower) were John's, but I slammed the rest (control room, walkway, larger fuel tank, two "vehicles", the pair of (...)

Tonight I'll try and post some pictures of the head-support mechanism I used in my AT-AT, which I think is fully compatible with the use of these sprues. Basically, it operates on the (...)

Currently the head is single position only, but he's planning to try and give it some mobility. Same basic problem as the legs: the (...)

(...) Yup, that AT-AT was gorgeous! I'm not sure Joe posts to Lugnet, so I'll try and answer some of the questions. His knees don't bend; the only articulation is ankles and hips (but the ankles are *so* cool!) I think he ran into the same problem (...)
