Great value, a bit oversized
" I’ll start with the pros.
This set has a great design, great figures (3 of which are very mass-able), great side builds, a decent price, beautiful box art (best the Star Wars line has had so far, in my opinion), and only 2 stickers (the less stickers, the better!)
The only con is the size of the walker. Again I want to stress that the build is high quality, but its way too big. There’s definitely a scaling issue with LEGO, and it’s been around for the last few years. certain sets like the 2014 MTT (75058) and the 2015 AAT (75080) are under-sized, while other sets, like this AT-RT, are oversized. I know the proportions will never be 100% accurate, and I don’t expect that, but I do wish that the design team would put I bit more research into the proper sizes of the actual vehicles to get these closer to scale for those of us who use these in MOCs where scaling is a big deal. And I know that making a set like this smaller is very doable for them, just take a look at the iconic clone walker battlepack from 2009, it’s not a canon vehicle, but it’s much closer to mini figure scale, which is way more accurate to what would be seen in the movies and shows
I don’t dislike the set, it looks great, it’s just way out of proportion with the figures, and won’t meld well with MOCs and/or bases unless you do some serious upscaling to them. As for kids or someone just looking for a display piece for the shelf, I recommend it, you won’t regret it.

Cool looking set, Price can't be justified
" I really want to love this set, but I cannot justify paying $15 for this. It's an extremely unique build, that looks awesome. It comes with two really cool new troopers from the solo movie, and two other figures that really needed to be more troopers, maybe a range trooper and a basic storm trooper, something mass-able, these were made to be troop builders after all! If lego would have replaced the Death Star trooper and the officer with with two troopers, and the price was lowered by like $3 at the very least, i'd probably buy nine more, but this just feels like a rip off and I just can't support that.
