Oh this guy just looks so sad! There is something about him that really touches my heart. He must hate being forced to shoot rebels and Ewoks, I am sure if you asked him he would say he just wants to retire.

The movie accuracy of this machine is unbelievable! The design is flawless. He stands so sturdy even though he is just two legs and one mighty head. I really love how his head swivels just like in the movie and I can almost hear the sound of the guns fireing on the sides of his head.

There is absolutely nothing I can fault with this set. The AT-ST driver is a great minifig. It is a delight to build, you begin in the middle and work your way outwards. It is challenging because it is more or less just the one colour, which makes it all the more fun.

I am an adult so this set is just on display therefore is very sturdy to me, but I must warn those who play with it to be careful with the guns on the side as they are quite delicate and might fall off and get lost. But dont let this put you off, it is an awesome addition to any star wars battle scene.

Among all the Lego sets, there is a set which holds a very special status among my collections - I have 5 boxes of it!

7657 AT-ST once was a scarce commodity, the highest price I paid for it was HKD 290 (USD 37), today it seems that not many are looking for it any more, but it is (or has been) a very interesting model really.

7657 is not a big set, consists of plain color parts, the structure is quite well designed, although the legs are rather rigid, but the knobs at the back can make the upper compartment rotate. The minifig is cool, the head and helmet are very useful else where too.

I have taken some nice pictures of this machinery in action, one of them with Yoda for a fun setup, feel free to take a look at these photos at my blog entry:

This is a nice set, but why do I get 5 boxes? I really don't know, just bought them 1 after 1 over a period of over a year, may be it is time to sell one or two of them...

This was a great set and I love having it in my collection. I got this last summer (summer 08) and the driver is great. The AT-ST is awesome, with a gun holder and enough space for a minifigure to stand behind the cocpit seat, this is great, but there are some things bad with it. Windows should be on the side of head, and gun should be on the top's front (where bar is). Other than that 8/10.

I love this set for the price and the build. The truth is I wish LEGO still sold this item. It was really fun to build and it is very versital. The turning head is really fun and if you have a chewbacca it complements the set very well! Also the detail is rally good for the size and piece count. It fit in prefectly with the 10178 walking AT-AT and the 7666 Hoth Reble base. The battle of Hoth so sweet!

Avoiding Lego Star Wars sets because they are overpriced, I couldn't bring myself to avoid this one as the price tag of $14 at a warehouse sale was calling me to buy it. I purchased it and looking at the box, I thought of the idea that the scrawny legs will not support the body of the AT-ST. I was wrong, after assembling, the legs DID support the main body, and nicely too! I should have bought another AT-ST at the sale!

This is a very good and solid Lego set, I'd say that you get it right now!
