Ah yes, I had forgotten those-- I wonder which order the two would be in
themselves? IE would data in the novels be considered better than the radio
dramas? I think I'd assume that to be the case. So:

- Movies
- Novels
- Radio Dramas
- 'Official' source
- Implied/Speculation

You say it would be 137 feet tall like it isn't about that.  Watch 'Empire'
where luke "magna-grapling hooks" his way up to the body of the AT-AT.
Assuming luke is your average 6 ft. tall person the AT-AT would easily be 137
feet tall by comparison.

Actually, it's not far away from *plausible*. But the point is that by *HIS*
estimation of AT-AT height, the result he came out with was nearly double
what he *SHOULD* have gotten :) And the 137ft estimate is nearly double (go
figure) what he estimates AT-AT height at :)

Geeky AT-AT detail:
