All Terrain MegaCaliber Six
on October 14, 2017
Posted by: Danbo1861
I think a good number of people were excited about this set, and I do believe they have been vindicated. This is a very good design with an enjoyable build. It is very important that you take your time and make sure you get every step of the build correct, as there are many subtle details in this somewhat complex design. In fact, the building process of this set feels very much how a "real" walker would be made on the assembly lines of KDY or Rothana. I love that! I kick myself for not making little construction scaffolds and having scenes of workers and droids putting this thing together while I was actually building it, I think that would have worked out nice. Features like that are the hallmark of a great design, when it really does feel like the "real" thing. This looks like a competent upgrade to the AT-AT, with reinforced legs with cable cutters on the shins, and the MegaSix gun that can easily engage airborne targets (at least in play) All in all, the set checks off all the boxes. It looks great, it's well built with sturdiness and stability, and it plays fantastic! Oh yeah... Mini-Figures are awesome too! The driver is especially cool. If you get this set, you'll probably love it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Well designed and stable
on September 4, 2017
Posted by: Tenny
My main concern before purchasing this kit was the stability of it, a walker is always going to be top heavy and therefore a little unstable but Lego have done well with this AT-M6. I was pleasantly surprised at how stable it actually is! It can take a good knock even with the legs in an action pose.
It has a very imposing look and some nice play features, the stud shooter is in my opinion the best of the features with it being easily aimed and fired although a little tricky to reload. The spring loaded shooters are a bit tricky to fire due to their location but are well integrated with the model. The interior has plenty of access panels although space inside is limited but I don’t consider this a big issue as a walker should be all about its exterior fire power.
We do seem to be missing a mini figure with this kit for its price point with the first order star destroyer having an extra figure. However the new version of Rey is obviously a great addition to the kit and the first order walker driver is a very cool figure to add to the collection.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Really nice and well detailed set
on October 6, 2017
Posted by: H3lios
I bought this set last month with the First Order Destroyer, and Ohh BOIII I love these sets.
It has a really sturdy technic frame and a really cool connection point for the head. It is highly poseable with those connections at the neck section.
The Gun at the top of the Walker also an excellent play feature for kids. As an adult builder I really enjoyed put together this set.
As a fan of the First Order / Empire it is a really good way to get a walker. Much cheaper, than the previous AT-AT.
Pros:
- Sturdy frame
- Lot of detail around the head and the legs
- Cool build for the main gun
- Displays well

Cons:
- Side panels pops off pretty easily at the first legs

- Small space inside the body

Great for display but bad for play!!
on September 3, 2017
Posted by: Sandrix
It is very great for displaying and will fit well in any Star Wars collection, but the play value is destitute. Parts fall of easily, especially those round pieces on the legs and it can get really annoying. But it´s my only complain, it has many good action features that works well like the very well hidden spring loaded missiles and be able to fit 2-3 stormtroopers in the back is also a plus.
All four legs are posable but unfortunately it can only have one leg up at a time, but it´s no big deal for me.
To sum it up you get a giant walker great for displaying with five exclusive minifigures!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

After playing around with the set I have a few tips about the round joint covers on the legs. I have found that they pop off if they are not fully connected with the black axels. If you secure these I believe you will fully enjoy the set as you will not need to worry about these elements popping off, even during rough play.

Great set. Good value for money.

Lovely set to build. When completed it looks great as a display piece alongside other similar sets. (Picture to follow). My only minor criticism is that the gun turret at the top is always open to view. As a result I have added a few modifications to make it look a little more like the original AT-AT set for the purpose of display. Would recommend as a set for Christmas gift without any hesitation even without the added extra piece

Great Set!!

This is the set you are looking for...
This is one of the sets I have been waiting for since I first saw the image of this walker, and it is a really good set. It has more weapons than the last AT-AT and a good design.
My only complain about this set are the round pieces on the leg I which they were flat as in the movie. this would be a good piece for the future walkers and for other sets
I would recommend this to a friend!

Lego Star Wars AT-M6
on November 20, 2017
Posted by: BenRuddick7889
It's a very good looking set for display and has many play features. It can be quite difficult sometimes to get it to stand when positioning the legs. The figures are very detailed but the set could of included one more for the price.
I would recommend this to a friend!

My experience with this Star Wars set
on January 3, 2018
Posted by: John123
This was one of the bigest set I ever build I love this lego set it has a lot of cool play futures like the gun on the top of the set. This set was one of my favorites Lego Star Wars sets
is a really cool set and I like the inside of this set because you can put minifigures inside the Heavy Assult Walker.
