    Everyone probably knows this, but the Imperial walkers all share striking appearance with some barnyard animals. The AT-AT is a cow (and a violent one at that, or even better, a MAD cow...hahaha I AM hilarious!) And the AT-ST is a chicken. Even the AT-TE in AOTC bars a resemblance to a rhino, which...I guess..is...a barnyard animal. Why is this? What does it symbolize?

    That SW is in fact a huge mechanical version of "Animal Farm".

    Actually, the AT-AT is modeled after an elephant, but it's the same concept. ;)

    LOL!

    I always thought that AT-ATs looked like dinosaurs.

    Yeah, I always thought the AT-ATs were like giant elephants, and the AT-ST has even been nicknamed a "Chicken Walker."

    AT-ATs can't be elephants, they don't have trunks.

    AT-ST is more like "jerked" chicken for all the jerking around they do.





    I'm a dork.

    The AT-TE always reminded me of a cockroach.

    And Luke is a fox! :p


    (I know, not really a barnyard animal. But I couldn't resist.)
