AT-ST Imperial Scout Walker Only Used On Weekends By Retired Jedi

The All Terrain Scout Transport (AT-ST) is a bipedal troop transport, dubbed the chicken walker for its awkward gait. This one received light log damage in the Battle of Endor, and the current seller took painstaking efforts to remove the Ewok nests before doing a full Imperial era correct restoration.

Built under contract from a consortium of old world industrial weapons suppliers, the AT-ST played supporting rolls for AT-AT (All Terrain Armored Transport) in the Battle of Hoth and a more prominent roll in the dense forest invasion during the Battle of Endor. Find this !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! for sale in Bristol, UK for £9,800 ($15,700 USD or 772,000 Galactic Credits) via ebay UK.

The AT-ST is equipped with a pair of chin mounted laser cannons and a set of ear mounted concussion grenade launchers. This machine stands at an impressive 16 feet high, but the factory documentations says the AT-ST should be 8.6 meters tall - so we will assume the seller did the conversion correctly because the metric conversions require the use of Lobachevsky root approximations and all of our RPN calculators are busted.

The seller includes one action shot were the AT-ST is about trying to avoid stepping on a small dog while shooting at the Hulk. However, the most important thing to consider when buying a used AT-ST from the Battle of Endor era is to avoid one with extensive Ewok damage. Those little buggers will use the AT-ST at first for basic transportation, drum moving, hunting, etc - and ignore all required maintenance. Once a critical system fails and the AT-ST is no longer mobile, they will typically turn it into an Ewok breeding shelter - starting with Ewok mating rituals (messy affairs that we won't delve into on these pages) and continuing to raise their young in nests. The newborn Ewoks will chew up wires, soil every surface and destroy all exposed control panels, but thankfully many aftermarket parts houses have appeared around the galaxy to support you with new interior kits.

The AT-ST is nice... But I'm in the market for something a little more interesting, something smaller, boxier, more wibbly-wobbly-timey-whimey... Oh, and it's gotta come in Blue... Is he parting with that fair condition Type 40 T.A.R.D.I.S.? Or was the Doctor just stopping by?

A T.A.R.D.I.S. on the left and a Pontiac Trans Sport on the right which is apparently the tow vehicle for the AT-ST? Definitely Wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey!

So he transports his Transport with a Tran Sport?

But only on May the 4th, I'm sure.

I'd love to have one of these as my daily driver. And this example has clearly been brought back to its former glory, aesthetically speaking. That being said, the Lucas electric systems in these things are notoriously bad. Unless it's been completely re-wired, crack pipe.

Is it this one?, I bet it's this one. That "light" log damage you speak of probably gave it a hell lot more than just a little nudge. Crumple zones were probably shot along with god knows what. I seriously doubt that this thing has got a clean title considering all it's structural damage.

But anyways... If the guns are still functional, I'd say it's a NP.

I thought Ka was a generic Bostonian term for an automobile?

It is also important to mention that the seller "Watto" has a poor reputation on eBay Tatooine. He recently sold a land speeder that he said was professionally maintained at a dealer by its moisture vapor farm owner, but it turns out he had his ne'er-do-well nephew perform most maintenance and it wasn't pretty.

Specist is the correct term FWIW.

All that effort building the AT-ST, but then THOSE FEET. Did he die before finishing it? Personally I'd have started with the feet, but maybe that's the problem.

Is no one going to mention the collection of limbs standing and laying near the house next to the call box?

Honestly, I'm more surprised about the presence of a Chevy Venture minivan there than the AT-ST

They were never sold here in the UK. Either someone imported it personally or it's one of the surprisingly many US Forces personnel cars that end up on the second hand market over here.

That, good sir, would be a Pontiac Trans Sport (same thing really) Though I too find it odd that it was exported, of all things.

*edit* Apparently it was exported as a Chevrolet Trans Sport.

How did they get there ?
Did Pontiac sell cars in Europe

I looked on wiki, and it gave me this:
There was also a Chevrolet Trans Sport sold in Europe until 2005 that was a version of the Chevrolet Venture that had some features of the Pontiac Trans Sport. Production of the Trans Sport was ended in 1998.

Mystery solved

I just re-read the wiki article, and mystery unsolved, since this is a first gen transport, and you see it says Pontiac on the rear bumper.

Not sold there, that's a LHD import (possibly a mainland European version with EU-reg lights etc)

Apologises for my spelling error in calling it a Trans Porter, I had mean't Trans Sport. They aren't a regular sight on U.K. roads. I've seen a few Windstars and Econoline campers though. Mostly there Vettes and the like, seen many in the Manchester area. Not my cup of tea I'm afraid, no offence.

Not as many as you can in an AT-AT.
