Since its debut in The Empire Strikes Back, the All Terrain Armored Transport has been a symbol of Imperial dominance. While LEGO has released several versions over the years, the Ultimate Collector Series (UCS) rendition is in a league of its own.
This isn’t just a toy; itβs a centerpiece that demands respect (and a very sturdy table).

Why This Set is a Masterpiece
1. Engineering Marvel
One of the biggest challenges with a LEGO AT-AT of this scale is gravity. To prevent the “legs” from buckling, LEGO designers utilized a unique combination of Technic frames and a special worm gear system. You actually use a brick-built wrench to adjust the leg joints, ensuring it stays upright.
2. Full Interior Access
Unlike many UCS sets that are “display only,” the 75313 features a fully detailed interior.
- The Cockpit: Fits two pilots and General Veers.
- The Main Body: Can hold up to 40 Snowtrooper minifigures and 4 Speeder Bikes (two are included).
- The E-Web Cannon: Perfect for setting up those iconic Hoth battle scenes.
3. Interactive Play (For Adults)
The side panels are easily removable to reveal the troop transport sections. It even includes a “Luke Skywalker” minifigure with a cable, so you can recreate the famous scene where he hoists himself up to take down the walker with a thermal detonator.
The Build Experience
Expect to spend anywhere from 15 to 25 hours on this build. It is divided into four main boxes, starting with the massive legs and ending with the highly detailed head and armor plating. Itβs a repetitive build at times (you have to build four legs, after all), but seeing the sheer scale come together is incredibly rewarding.
Final Verdict
The 75313 AT-AT is a definitive statement piece. It is expensive and takes up a significant amount of room, but for a Star Wars purist, there is no better way to celebrate the Battle of Hoth.
Pro Tip: Make sure you measure your display shelf before you start building. At over 2 feet tall, it won’t fit in a standard bookshelf!
