At last, Hasbro has decided to bring a classic vehicle out of the vault just in time for one of Star Wars’s anniversaries! Its … The Mandalorian AT-ST Raider. Oh.
This 3.75″ scale vehicle stands roughly 12″ tall and features posable legs, a fully detailed cockpit, and a number of other upgrades the Kenner classic lacked. It also comes with a $79.99 price tag!
The re-release AT-ST Raider is scheduled to ship out in April 2024. When it originally hit the market not too long ago, I cannot remember it leaving a huge impression on the collectors’ space. That’s why it feels weird to focus on reissuing this instead of something like the 2008 Legacy Collection Millenium Falcon, without the porgs, of course.
Aside from the added accessories and cosmetic pieces, this is the same AT-ST that showed up in the Vintage Collection with the Return of the Jedi branding. However, The Mandalorian release is slightly less expensive, and you get a unique character, the Klatooinian Raider.
The vehicle itself is a great piece of plastic. The articulation allows for a pretty good range of display possibilities, but how many people were superfans of this one-episode vehicle?
I’d be way more interested in picking up the Return of the Jedi version of the Chicken Walker … ya know, because it’s the 40th anniversary of the last true Star Wars movie. Thankfully, Entertainment Earth is going to be restocking that classic vehicle soon, and it’s only $89.99.
“Celebrate the legacy of Star Wars, the action-and-adventure-packed space saga from a galaxy far, far away, with premium 3.75-inch scale figures and vehicles from Star Wars The Vintage Collection. Figures feature premium detail and design across product and packaging inspired by the original line released in 2010, as well as the movie-real collector grade deco that fans have come to know and love.”
The AT-ST raider comes with the following features:
“With realistic detail including an opening cockpit, articulated legs, adjustable laser cannons and side-mounted weapons pods, and movable command viewpoint blast shields, the AT-ST Raider toy can be displayed in Star Wars action figure and vehicle collections.”
