I've created an alternate model for set # 7130, Snowspeeder. It's an AT-ST. The model is slightly smaller than the offical Lego AT-ST, but it's more detailed. It seats one minifig, though it is possible to cram two minifigs into the cockpit. It was (...) (24 years ago, 27-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars)
