War Rages On with Hot Toys Newest Star Wars Release
"While clone troopers were best deployed in large numbers, articulated battlefield armor such as the All Terrain Reconnaissance Transports (AT-RT) walker transformed a single clone trooper into a formidable anti-infantry unit. Designed primarily as a reconnaissance vehicle, this two-legged open-cockpit walker is nonetheless swift and heavily armed, letting a clone trooper cut through battle droids easily. Advanced Recon Force Troopers, also known as ARF Troopers, wore lighter armor for stealth and speed and often rode such walkers into battle."
"Hot Toys is delighted to be expanding its Star Wars collection today and officially presenting the amazing 1/6th scale ARF Trooper & 501st Legion AT-RT Collectible Set inspired by the Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated series!
