Custom boombox AT-AT brings some intergalactic funk
by Brian Szabelski on 02/24/2009 3 comments

Sometimes, I'm really amazed at what people can put together with customs of old toys, but this is above and beyond anything else I've seen: an AT-AT merged with an old-school boombox. It might even be more cool than that custom AT-AT Gamecube from a few years back. Scratch that, it is cooler than the AT-AT Gamecube, even if the boombox portion doesn't work. The look alone, from the big antenna on top to the retro-styled buttons under the tape deck, harkens back to a time when carrying 10 pounds of metal around on your shoulder was the coolest thing you could do.

As for the artist, well, that's a bit of a mystery, as the photos are linked from a site named zen77990. Whoever this mystery person is, though, I gladly salute them for creating I would love to see Darth Vader rolling around the galaxy in. Heck, throw in a few dancing Stormtroopers, and the Empire would have one hell of a party.
