“Star Wars At-At Mechanical Monster” Toy in 1981

October 4, 1981. This Zayre newspaper ad block featuring the Kenner Star Wars AT-AT toy for $42 refers to the design as a “mechanical monster,” making me look at the walker in a new light. Rawr, kids? I never considered this a monster when I was a kid, but now I kinda want to see the AT-AT with teeth.
