1/144-scale AT-AT, What a wonderful mold!

When I went to the Shizuoka Hobby Show last month, I got some of the Star Wars Vehicle Collection of F-toys at the bargain sale.

Especially I was impressed by the AT-AT walker. It replicates the original studio models precisely. I verified the high fidelity by a book entitled "Sculpting a Galaxy: Inside the Star Wars Model Shop."

F-toys developed the candy toy with cooperation of Fine Molds.
