Actually, going by the movies, an AT-AT's about 75 feet tall, which
translates to about 525 mm in minifig scale which is about 65 studs tall...
But 40 studs would about work for the often reported 50-feet height of the
AT-AT, though...

I'd definitely agree-- they could do a VERY scaled down version and still
have it look good. As I recall the AT-AT that Kenner put out was roughly 30
feet tall in their figure size, and it wasn't all that bad, really. At 30
feet, that'd make it about 26 studs tall... so maybe 30 studs... Hmm... now
I'm kinda curious to design one just to see if it'd be reasonably feasible
for TLC to produce... hmm...
