I passed on it back then,cause I had the Marmit and not the financial space at the time. Too bad,he looks great

I have both Marmit and Sideshow At-AT Drivers, and have to admit the Sideshow is amazing. Not perfect, but still amazing.

It is a little too tall but a great release from Sideshow. I should have gotten a second one...

The boots always scream hasbro to me. Which sucks because of the rest of the figure looks fantastic with nice sharp molds.

Well,how do you make moon boots in 1/6 scale?

The same way, just with sharper detail. Maybe a wash would make em pop a bit? I dunno.

Kinda reminds me of the HT Boba rotj/esb gloved hands. Yeah they look okay, but the sculpt is really "soft".

Ironically, Sideshow did a much better job than HT on those.

The SSC helmet is beautifully painted with amazingly crisp sculpt detail, though the sculpt itself is a little off. The Marmit sculpt is more accurate, but the paint and level of sculpt detail is lacking. I guess it comes down to which aspects you think are more important.

They are quite accurate to the screen used:

Can’t believe this figure is almost 10 years old and we still haven’t gotten one from hot toys. But we have axe woves.

Will cost an outrageous $250.

Look at us now…

I find the SSC driver boots to be a bit too tall and a bit too block-like in sculpt. The Marmit boots - which occasionally come up on ebay parted out - I find capture the costume boots much better, though they need a repaint.

One fun thing I did was carefully/hidden sliced my SSC driver boots to separate the shoe part from the upper boot to create ankle articulation.

The perfect ATAT driver to me would be a repainted Marmit helmet with SSC armor/chestbox/pipes/jumpsuit, and Marmit boots and gloves (I really hate the SSC chunky gloved hands on this fig.)

What's funny is that even though this was the first 12" scale driver to have correct grey armor, I had gotten so used to the white armor via Kenner and the flow-on, I actually don't like the grey look as much, finding it to be not as crisp-looking against the grey jumpsuit.

Exactly that. They're just too squared and soft imo. There's a lot more of an ankle area on the costume pics above.
