[quote]The All-Terrain Tactical Enforcer (AT-TE) blasted its way into battle for the first time at the Battle of Geonosis, and proceeded to unleash its aggressive power all through the Clone Wars. This armored assault vehicle moves with unyielding intimidation toward enemy fortifications, plowing through energy shields and firing its six laser cannons and a heavy projectile cannon all the way. Its interior can hold a squad of clone troopers that can be quickly deployed for ground combat.

March your Clone Trooper army (one figure included; others sold separately) into one of your staged battles aboard this impressive AT-TE vehicle. Pose the articulated legs as if it’s “marchingâ€

Apologies for the wait... Here's the rest of it :wink:
{Part 2}
Let's go through the 6 views of the AT-TE.

And not forgetting, underneath :P :

The AT-TE is really one huge craft, it even dwarf the hasbro gunship by comparison, which I will go into later.

First of, let's take a look at the reference data for the AT-TE from DK's incredible cross sections books.
Image

If you have reviewed the above thumbnail, not all is correct as seen from the Hasbro's AT-TE. Still, it's a great toy nonetheless, and let's dive into the parts that make up the AT-TE.

Here we have the turret as demonstrated by the friendly clone trooper.
Image

Do check out the targeting screen, it lights up(to be shown in video later)
Image

And of course, the AT-TE Driver definitely fits snugly into it.

Thanks, Red_5. He's from the legacy collection under saga legends. It's just too bad he ain't as articulated at the thigh areas as the AT-TE Driver, else this is one trooper that can sit pretty nicely.

{Part 3}
Let's take a look at the cockpit this time,
Image

The interior is modded to look padded, and the driver stands, and not sit in it.
Image
Image
Check out the slots for holding the weaponary.
Image
And he fits very snugly into it.
Image
And now with the hatch closed.
Image

Next up, we have the gunner stations that operates the 4 anti-personnel laser cannon turrets at the front of the AT-TE.
Image

There's no light-up feature here, just stickers to depict the targeting screens.
Image
There's enough for 4 troopers, though I will just place one, for demo purposes.
Image

Last but not least, the troop deployment section.
Image

Seen from the aft, there's 2 gunner stations here for the other 2 turrets.
Image

Behind the AT-TE Driver, there's 3 columns of 4 rows, meaning that area can hold ideally 12 troopers, if they are standing real straight like battle droids.
Note the slots for weaponary as well.
Image

Demo of the placement of the trooper.
Image
Image

And here we have it, all opened up for maintenance.
Image
Image

Now that we have the AT-TE, would we get the LAAT/c? I mean check out the size of the AT-TE beside the LAAT/i...
Image
Image
I think, it's time to give us an upgrade for the gunship too, Hasbro.

Before I end off, here's the video feature on the electronic action features for the AT-TE. I totally dig the cannon effects.
