To see more official photos, check out the official announcement of the LEGO UCS AT-AT Hope you’ve enjoyed this walkthrough the unboxing experience of the LEGO UCS AT-AT. I’ll hopefully be able to publish my review soon, so keep an eye out for it. It’s truly an engineering marvel, and one of the most interesting and challenging sets that I’ve built – and I can’t wait to see it all come together. Unfortunately, due to me literally receiving the set yesterday (I have a newborn, and full time day job, so it was almost impossible to build a 6000+ piece set in a day) I haven’t quite finished the set yet – I’m about halfway through but boy, is it a lot of fun. I’m guessing these poses will stress the legs, or LEGO bricks, so don’t try this at home.Īnd last but not least, here’s a look at the sticker sheet! I really enjoyed this last diagram, which shows up in the manual multiple times, demonstrating the right way to pose the AT-AT, as well as the wrong way. Here’s a cursory glance through the pages. Like any UCS or even D2C or large exclusive (or expensive!) LEGO set, the manuals contain plenty of cool details of the build, designers and subject matter. Here are the four instruction booklets contained in each box, which are housed within cardboard envelopes. Utterly brilliant, and this gave me so much joy, before even opening the boxes. These are seriously brilliant, as they serve as a great “base” for the AT-AT, or even a backdrop for photography, when stacked on the sides. Over on the other side, the boxes are covered in snow, with the AT-AT footprints printed all across them. The picture is printed across all four inner boxes, and make such a dramatic impact upon discovering them, really setting the tone for what is an epic build.īut that’s not all – each box is numbered, and features these highlighted diagrams of the sections of the AT-AT that are contained in each box.Īgain, a massive step up and finally, a premium experience that has been missing from LEGO UCS sets.īut wait, there’s more. The unboxing experience for LEGO (even expensive sets can be fairly predictable), but I was absolutely blown away here. This was honestly, such an amazing surprise, and something that LEGO has never done. That’s right – no more plain white inner boxes – these are now GORGEOUS and you absolutely don’t want to recycle these. Opening up those flaps reveals what is possible THE most surprising element of the entire unboxing experience – this incredible artwork of the AT-AT printed vertically across all four inner boxes. Not a great start to your day if you’re a Rebel, freezing your butt off at Echo Base. Open up that flap reveals another great surprise – the blue-tinted viewfinder shot of not one, not two, but three AT-ATs approaching Echo Base. Ripping the first flap open reveals this great artwork of the AT-AT, a Snowtrooper operating an E-Web Heavy Repeating Blaster, as well as the correct Imperial logo! Great job, graphic designers! Here’s the side, which proudly showcases the AT-AT’s butt. Here’s a look at the back of the box, which features some of the great moments featuring the AT-AT from Empire Strikes Back. Here’s what greets you as you open the outer shipper. There are some clear spoilers, so don’t read on if you like your experience of unboxing the UCS AT-AT to be completely unspoiled!įirst things first – the box is undeniably massive – about the same size as the LEGO Colosseum’s or UCS Millennium Falcon Box and it’s heavy – about 12.5 kg! Instead, here’s quick look at the unboxing experience, which is pretty spectacular and one of the best that LEGO have every devised, at least for a LEGO Star Wars UCS set. See below for regional pricing and links: The Ultimate Collector Series (UCS) AT-AT will be priced at US$799.99 / AU$1299.99 and will be available on Black Friday, 26 November 2021 exclusively from or LEGO stores. Unfortunately, the logistics were a bit of a mess, and my package was held up somewhere for about 2 weeks, which has been a frustrating ordeal as I was really looking forward to having a review ready to go, but alas, these things happen. The LEGO UCS AT-AT has officially been revealed, and will be available on 26 November 2021 (Black Friday) from, and LEGO were kind enough to send over an early review copy.
