1980 Star Wars Imperial AT-AT Pilot

Propelling the massive Imperial walkers over uneven terrain requires the skills of seasoned AT-AT pilots/drivers. These soldiers work in teams of two, operating the ground craft with deft skill. They also fire the vehicle's powerful laser cannons, carrying orders from a combat coordinator, also stationed on the AT-AT's bridge.


Piloting an AT-AT effectively is a difficult challenge entrusted to flesh-and-blood operators and not automation. A battery of simulation tests helps harden combat soldiers into the Empire's elite armor assault crews. For their high perches and protective cockpits of reinforced armor, the AT-AT pilots are often regarded with contempt by the foot soldier infantry. Such acrimony is not without some merit -- AT-AT pilot training stresses their importance, and successful soldiers are often convinced of their invincibility, making them insufferably arrogant to the frontline grunts.

Though not required in the pressurized environment of an AT-AT cockpit, the pilots routinely wear their life-support gear, not only as part of combat history, but to provide emergency protection against hull breaches in hostile environments.

The uniform of the AT-AT pilot is mostly similar to that of a TIE fighter pilot, except with some custom armor segments and a different color scheme.

The AT-AT Pilot was one of those many instances where Kenner made something that, inherently, you had to buy something much more expensive to play with. In this case, an AT-AT Imperial Walker.

The figure came on an ESB and then a ROTJ card, and came with a blaster rifle that could be slung over his shoulder. Like many of the Imperial helmeted figures, his head did not rotate - that's why the AT-AT's did. The only variation in this figure was that the Imperial logos on his helmet came in two different shades of red.

Before Kenner/Hasbro had came out with the new, same-scale G.I. Joe line, they still did not include pertinent figures like the AT-AT pilot with the actual AT-AT. While they never did this for the original Star Wars line, they did do it for G.I. Joe figures starting in 1982. When Star Wars figures were again made starting in the 1990's, there were no end to the ones that came with vehicles. The reissued AT-AT vehicle came with both the AT-AT Driver and the AT-AT Commander.

If you got both of these figures and your parents still didn't get you an AT-AT, call them up right now and tell them how they ruined your childhood.

1997 Star Wars Imperial Snow Stormtrooper

I am offering a 1997 STAR WARS "Power of the Force" Imperial Snowtrooper action figure for sale. The out-of-the-box 3 ¾ inch figure is in extremely excellent condition and is very detailed with great weathering effects. The Snowtrooper has movable arms and legs, twisting waist and comes complete with its blaster pistol and removable back-pack.

Snowtroopers, also known as Cold Assault Stormtroopers, were Imperial Stormtroopers trained to operate in arctic climates. The snowtroopers were the successors of the Clone Cold Assault Troopers under Clone Commander Keller during the Clone Wars.

Snowtroopers were utilized on many different icy worlds in the Star Wars Universe, including the Imperial Garrison on the Planet Akuria II. Their most notable campaign was at the Battle of Hoth, where the Imperial Blizzard Force defeated the Rebel Alliance and overran Echo Base.

Assault on Echo Base during the Battle of Hoth

Snowtroopers were armed with the standard issued E-11 blaster rifles of stormtroopers, SE-14R light repeating blasters, two concussion grenades, and one frag grenade. Elite snowtroopers were given the DLT-20A blaster rifle as a replacement for the E-11, and two stun grenades. Snowtroopers commonly employed E-web heavy repeating blasters.

Snowtrooper armor was well suited to the climate extremes of frozen worlds such as Hoth, Rhen Var, and Toola. Like other stormtroopers, snowtroopers wore a standard black two-piece temperature control body glove. Over this was an eighteen-piece outer shell altered to include more powerful heating and personal environment units, and an airtight fabric oversuit for additional protection from the cold. Their helmets had built-in polarized snow goggles. The chest plate worn by the snowtroopers was constructed of a plastoid composite armor.

To facilitate breathing in extremely cold or dangerous atmospheres, a breather hood enveloped the snowtrooper's faceplate and fed into the suit liner. Each trooper was equipped with terrain-grip boots, a standard utility belt containing high-tension wire, grappling hooks, ion flares, additional blaster ammunition, a survival kit, and ration packs.

1983 Star Wars Imperial Royal Guard action figure

I am selling an original 1983 Star Wars (Return of the Jedi) Imperial Royal Guard action figure in excellent condition. The Royal Guards were the personal protectors of Emperor Palpatine in Star Wars. First formed as the Red Guard for the Republic Senate after Palpatine claimed rumors of corruption in the Senate. They later became the Emperor’s personal guard.

They were handpicked from among the best stormtroopers, and underwent rigorous and grueling training. To keep in fighting form, some were always rotated out on combat missions, so some survived the destruction of the second Death Star. These remaining Guards were chronicled in the graphic novel series Crimson Empire, where they fought for supremacy. They also came back together to protect the clone Emperor in Dark Empire, but one of their own had sabotaged the Emperor’s clones so he would not live long.


The Royal Guard looked to one of the real bad asses of the Imperial troops. The red helmet with the “I won’t take any s---t from you” stare. The robed standing-at-attention stance. Too bad during the movie, they didn't do much except for looking cool .

The figure was released after Return of the Jedi .The red cloth robe was attached at the base of the helmet, with a slit for one arm to come out. Neither the robe nor the cape could be removed – except by wrecking the figure.

Why should you own this figure? Five reasons:

1. Despite their movie inaction, it still looks bad ass.
2. Great red figure for ex-Soviet lovers.
3. Goes great with an Imperial Shuttle.
4. Create a scene where the Guards actually do something, like Grevious’ robot guards in Revenge of the Sith.
5. Way cooler than an Ewok action figure.
