| Crossposted to .mecha - this thing is all good parts. (...) - This thing is huge. Looks to be a foot or so tall. While this isn't the 'real' scale, I think it's convincingly gigantic and the details and proportions are better than I expected. - (...)

| (...) Hmm, I dont recall seeing a speeder bike during the Hoth scenes, but I have noticed one thing: 3 new minifigs, prolly going to be very much in demand, and I would guess they are only going to be available in this $89.99 set... (22 years ago, 7-Jan-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build.mecha)

| (...) I can't remember exactly, but were some speeder bikes added in the Special Edition? As for the new figures, the driver just looks like a Stormtrooper torso and helmet with light grey arms and legs - I converted my two Tie-Fighter Stormtroopers (...)

| (...) I haven't seen the special edition, shame on me!!!!!!, but in the Star Wars vehicles book, th AT-AT carries about six speeder-bikes in the very back. oz. (22 years ago, 8-Jan-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build.mecha)

| as a matter of fact, all mammals have similar bone stuctures. if you compare a dog's leg and a human leg, you see that they both have knees, heels, and toes. the knee on a dog, like a human, bends forward. however, it looks like it bends backward.

| (...) Weeelllll, technically, that's not right. All mammals have knees that bend in the same basic direction - as long as you have a consistent definition for a knee. In most mammals, though, the thigh bone is much shorter and compacted into the (...) (22 years ago, 8-Jan-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build.mecha)

| (...) Bad form, but I'm replying to my own message - 'cause I forgot to tie it into Star Wars. I did a quick study a couple of years ago on the AT-ST. If you check out the pictures from the movie, you can see that the AT-ST does indeed have a knee (...) (22 years ago, 8-Jan-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build.mecha)

About 38-43 minifig feet tall? That's not too bad at all considering (...) (22 years ago, 8-Jan-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build.mecha)

The equivalent for mammals then is for you to get down on all fours and walk on knuckles and tiptoes, with your knees facing forward and your elbows facing backward. Nevertheless, the AT-AT doesn't (...) (22 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build.mecha)
