In space, size does matter, and Hasbro certainly kept that in mind when creating its all-new, highly detailed STAR WARS AT-AT. The AT-AT (All Terrain Armored Transport) played a significant role in the Empire’s military assault in THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK, and it will play an equally important role in every fan’s toy collection this year! Measuring more than 24 inches tall, nearly 28 inches long, and 12 inches wide, this colossal vehicle holds up to 20 STAR WARS figures – 6 of which can fit in its head alone! – and includes so many play and electronic features true to its on-screen counterpart that it’s hard to believe! From the zip-line in its body and articulated legs for superb poseability, to its LED lights and authentic movie sounds and phrases, this is the must-have addition for STAR WARS fans of all ages. Includes a 3 ¾ inch AT-AT driver action figure and a pop-out speeder bike.

Be sure to visit StarWars-Descriptions.com to see a couple of images of this big new vehicle. I always enjoyed my AT-AT when I was younger, and this one looks great!

Synopsis: As the Jedi and their clones defend Duchess Satine from assassination attempts, Anakin discovers that Obi-Wan and the Duchess have a history together.

The Happy Meal packaging will feature images of Darth Vader and Yoda, games and instructions that direct consumers to the McDonald's HappyMeal.com website where they are able to join the quest to "Help Defend McWorld from Darth Vader" in McDonald's free virtual world for kids, as well as experience augmented reality with McD Vision. Visitors to the site should not forget their secret code (inside every Happy Meal) which unlocks a special lightsaber feature within the Darth Vader quest.

We all know that Star Wars: Battlefront III seems to have been lost, but Kotaku has reported a rumor that the series lives on, in the form of currently-in-pre-production Battlefront Online.

"The game, for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, is currently being worked on by both Lucasarts and Slant Six Games, the studio responsible for SOCOM Confrontation and SOCOM Fire Team Bravo 3.

The title is still in pre-production, so there's no guarantee that we'll ever hear more of it – Battlefront having become somewhat of a cursed property after the recent demise of original developers Pandemic and buy-out of Battlefront III developers Free Radical – but Lucasarts' insistence on getting a Battlefront game made in spite of all that gives us hope.

Battlefront Online is, as the name suggests, planned to be online-only, and is tentatively slated to appear in 2011.

Whether this game was the source of that "Battlefront IV" concept art that turned up last year is unknown, but our sources tell us that it is the source of those voice actor rumors from December."

There isn't any word yet for all of us that still play Battlefront II on PC. I do hope it makes it to the PC platform!
