Crush the rebels with the incredible power of a gigantic AT-M6 of the First Order! As successors of the dreaded AT-AT combat walkers of the Galactic Empire those monsters could spread incomparably more terror and horror. AT-M6 stands for AllTerrain-MegaCaliber 6. “MegaCaliber 6” describes the overpowering turbo-laser gun that is mounted on the back of the heavy siege engine. With this gun, the additional heavily armored AT-M6s are able to break through shields that are supposed to withstand orbital bombardments. Such a show of force made changes necessary compared to the old AT-AT. Therefore, the heavy gun disposes of an own separate energy supply including own fuel tanks for shorter loading times. The front legs received additional reinforcement, and the monkey-like gait on the knuckles allows the AT-M6 to brace itself against the massive recoil of the big gun. Hardly worth mentioning are the additional medium-weight anti-ship guns to the right and left of the head, the heavy laser canons at the front of the head or the crew compartments that offered room for the storm troops.

Under the command of Kylo Ren and general Hux quite a few AT-M6 terrified the rebels during the battle of Crait, they could only do nothing against the illusion of Luke Skywalker, of course. Which would again prove that Luke Skywalker is one of the few things a fighter’s crew should really be afraid of.

This model is one of the largest models with instructions in the world. It was designed by Pete “Cavegod” Brookdale, modifications and instructions were created by The Brick-Collective. The instructions were divided into eight sections to get a handle on the nearly 26000 parts. About 3 months of work went into the instructions, and of course much more into the model itself. A Sbrick in the head was provided to control the motors as well as the installed LEDs (Link). Two archives need to be downloaded.
