The set 7250 Clone Scout Walker is a LEGO set released in 2005 as part of the Star Wars Revenge of the Sith line. It included one minifigure, a Clone Recon Trooper minifigure. The set contains one module based after the AT-RT Walker from the chronologically third Star Wars movie.

Description

The Clone Scout Walker contains 108 pieces and its front, legs and blasters can be moved. The front and blasters swivel, while the legs can be moved at three different points to simulate walking. The blaster carried by the Clone Recon Trooper can be stored on the side of the walker by attaching to a peg. There is a control stick for the pilot and the front of the vehicle is specially printed to look like the walkers from Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.

Background Information

The Clone Scout Walker, known properly as the All Terrain Recon Transport (known as the AT-RT for short), was a one-man walker utilized by the Grand Army of the Republic for patrolling and reconnaissance missions. It left the driver sitting on the saddle-like seat exposed to fire, but compared to other walkers it was very quick and, combined with its low-cost, was strong competition for with other clunky vehicles used on the battlefield. The main weapons of the AT-RT were a laser cannon and mortar launcher which made it good for anti-infantry duties. It also was equipped with motion detection scanners and other sensors and some units used later by the Rebel Alliance had the mortar launcher replaced with a strong floodlight. They were also used for regular policing, due to their versatility and speed.

Notes

  • This is the only set to contain the Clone Recon Trooper.
  • The newer set 8098 Clone Turbo Tank contains an AT-RT vehicle. In this set, the newer design of the AT-RT is much smaller than it's predecessor.
  • In the Star Wars universe, the pilots leg hang out over the side of the vehicle (like they are riding a horse) but in the LEGO version the pilot sits fully on top. This is due to the size and articulation problems of minifigures.
