I have the $160 one, and I'm very happy with it. I have made some of my own improvements - adding two clear red 1x2's to create a more accurate front viewport. Also, I replaced the horrible (to me) orange slope pieces in the cockpit with black ones, which I think, also make it look not quite as small inside. I added a couple of gray plates inside the side doors, to make them more sturdy. Lastly, it looks possible to maybe squeeze in a couple more of the blue trooper seats, so I'm going to try this too. Thanks, Ryan! Love the channel!

I mean you could play with the ucs atat but to move it for 6 year olds it’s gonna be heavy it’s head it’s butt it’s body is way to heavy for little kids but I guess kids could do imaginary play but it’s actually made for display though

The 160 one is it for me. It looks really good (apart from some ugly coloured technic pins), the figures are great and actually use the right faces, you can put everything it comes with in it and its easy to display in different poses. You can already get it for a lot cheaper so its definetly a great set.

As a Gen Xer, I feel privileged that Lego took the time to make the best, most accurate UCS model based on an OT vehicle like the AT-AT. ESB is my favorite movie of all time, and the selection of Lego sets based on it are immense. That said, I truly feel sorry for the younger generation that grew up with the prequels and don't have near the same opportunity to enjoy sets from that era. I feel the AT-AT is the new undisputed king of SW sets, but I'd welcome a quality challenger from the prequels so that the next gen can feel as lucky.

I had the motorized one as a kid (which is slightly shorter and wider than the modern play scale one) so I can compare the modern play scale one pretty closely to my childhood experience with the Lego AT AT. It was a big set for me back then. Just seeing the UCS towering over the play scale like that, something as a kid I would have seen as a big set, is awe-inspiring. It’s so huge. Like I can’t imagine having that thing in person, I’ve never seen anything Lego that big with my own eyes.

I'm tempted to get the 10$ version just to stack it on top of the 800$ one just because it would be cute.

The $160 version does have a crank inside the upper-front hatch of the body to raise and lower Luke too. It's a great set at the right size and price for most people. Def recommend.

I love how when he’s comparing them the at-ats look like a mother and they’re child

The Snowtrooper battle packs are like the DLC for video games…

The 100 dollar is the best if you intend on playing with minifigures. The ucs stuff is basically a standalone thing, they are meant to be set pieces, they are priced as such.

IMO the UCS is perfect for a Hoth display MOCs due to its massive scale to everything else, it'll round the entire thing up perfectly. It's much closer to the movies with its vehicle-to-minifig scale, and since it was made to pose but not to play, its drawbacks don't come out as much. Meanwhile, the play scale is, as the name implies, much better for casual play. Especially as a gift for your own kids or relatives, where dropping a bit more money doesn't come off as weird.

Awesome! I’ve always loved these comparison videos!

Got the 160 version as a gift at Christmas and I couldn’t be happier with it…but good lord does that behemoth put it to shame. Loved the video, first time actually seeing a walk through of the completed set…whata beauty, easily my second favorite set behind the Falcon… maybe one day lol

Awesome comparison video MandR Productions.

I miss the old legos

I feel like I'd be more inclined to collect the UCS sets instead of the playsets if they were always available to buy. I know the new lego sub etc. but I feel like you're most likely correct about what the buying old sets will actually be. But ya there's a much higher chance of a medium scale playset coming out again (if I miss one) than a UCS set and they're all pretty expensive at MSRP. So can't really get myself to drop a bunch of money on the AT-AT + MF when getting all of the rest of the sets to go with them will cost me a ridiculous amount per piece second hand. Not to mention the risk that comes with buying second hand. Imagine dropping close to 1k on the shuttle and they make a new one thats better? ouch.

Since I don't like the AT-AT as a vehicle, I'll stick with the mini one. I find the play set overpriced already, so the UCS is extremely overpriced and absolutely not worth it for me.
