| First it was the AT-AT, but what will it be next? Maype it might be the AT-TE republic walker.......... Maybe it could be a sand crawler? Possibly a fighter/bob=mber? like an x-wing or a tie? Whats everyone elses guess? | |

| At the Star Wars Celebration III convention held in May 2005 the WotC guys were there and did a seminar on SWM. I was there with notepad in hand jotting down everything they said. They did in fact confirm that the AT-TE Republic Walker would be the second Star Wars Icon mini...But they couldnt guarantee they would produce it yet. First they wanted to see how the AT-AT did in terms of sales. Considering that the AT-AT can still be found in gaming stores. And the fact that there was no word of the AT-TE Icon from WotC at GenCon held over a year later.....I dont know if we will ever see this mini. | |

| | We might see a pick-up on it now that the Snowspeeder is verified. Wotc likely could have sold more of the AT-AT's if the speeder was included in the first huge set. | |

| I certainly hope that we will see some more SWM Icon's. I can see scenario's with the AT-TE similar to the AT-AT, but can anyone think of other SWM (as opposed to SW Ships) that could be so converted? Perhaps Jaba's barge (include some rules for boarding wit the upcoming desert skiff...). I don't see any good scenario's with the Jawa's Sandcrawler, and I'm at a loss to think of other similarly sized creatres/ships. Pat E | |

| | As far i know the AT-TE is a Gargantuan vehicle for SW rpg, with this the miniature would be gargantuan 4X4 Squares! And this could be a chance for WOTC to make a Scenario pack for the clone wars (geonosis) as we get the one for Hoth Battle; With the new sep droid tanks it would be awsome! don´t you guys thinks so? | |

| I would buy any of those combinations. I'm really surprised that the AT-AT didn't at the price of $50.00, and that no other SWM Icon's have been put into production... Pat E | |

| | too me it would have to have an exlusive medium/large scale miniature to make it worthwhile as the walker is too big and bulky. After a while you run out of room to store these things | |
