On today’s lunchtime toy run, I found the Toys R Us exclusive vintage boxed version of Hasbro’s big AT-AT. The toy itself is the same new AT-AT, but the box is fully inspired by the vintage AT-AT packaging from the 80s (and it is gorgeous as well; the graphic artists at Hasbro knocked this one out of the park). The toy was in the same location where the normal boxed AT-ATs were earlier this week and the shelf tag had not changed. The price is not verified, as I did not scan it. After the jump, check out an image of the toy on the shelf.
Wait, I’m confused. Are they selling 2 diff AT-ATs right now? The vintage mold and the new mold, or do they have 2 diff boxes (vintage-style and new) for the same, updated AT-AT?
The toy in the box is the same, new AT-AT…just the exclusive box is in the vintage style. – Matt
