The Story
The AT-AT, the All Terrain Armored Transport, first appeared in The Empire Strikes Back in 1980, striding across the ice fields of Hoth in the assault on Echo Base. Towering, slow, and nearly unstoppable head-on, the walkers turned the Battle of Hoth into one of the most recognizable set pieces in the saga, the moment the Rebellion learned it could not simply shoot its way out. The AT-AT became shorthand for the sheer weight of Imperial power, the ground-level counterpart to the fleet of TIE fighters that includes Darth Vader's TIE Fighter, and it carries the same Empire menace as the first Darth Vader NFT.
This is the first AT-AT digital collectible VeVe has released, tagged Con Exclusive. VeVe built it as an animated AR asset rather than a static model, so the walker's head sweeps and locks, the heavy and medium cannons fire with recoil, the deployment bays open, and the cable winches extend and retract on command.
The base "March of the Empire" figure is the walker in full stride, armored head scanning for targets, rendered down to the plating and cannon mounts. The scarce "HOTH Deployment" special edition reskins the same sculpt in snow-worn winter armor, a frozen memory of the Echo Base assault.

The Variants
The Con Exclusive blind box held the base walker plus a very short-run special edition, with a craftable Rare on top for collectors who combine editions.
A third piece, "AT-AT - Frozen March of the Empire," exists as a craftable Rare rather than a direct pull, made by combining editions.
Edition Breakdown
| Variant | Editions | Pull Odds | Detail |
|---|---|---|---|
| March of the Empire (Common) | 3,880 | 1 in 1.52 | Base walker, animated, $50 retail |
| HOTH Deployment (Special Edition) | 80 | 1 in 83.31 | Snow armor reskin, ultra-scarce |
VeVe minted 3,880 editions of the base March of the Empire, withheld 50, and burned 603, leaving roughly 3,227 in circulation, an unusually high burn for a recent drop. The HOTH Deployment special edition is capped at just 80 editions, one of the smallest print runs attached to any Star Wars first.
Market Context
This was a Season 10 Con Exclusive under the Star Wars license, carrying VeVe's standard 8.50% market fee. The base walker's recent market floor has sat around $24.99, below the $50 list, which is normal for a Common once a drop settles. The real scarcity story is the HOTH Deployment special edition: at 80 editions it is the piece serious collectors chase, and it trades at a completely different tier from the base. As a late-2025 drop, this launched on Ethereum and now lives on the Collect blockchain after VeVe's January 2026 migration, trading through the in-app market and StackR.
The first status is permanent. However many AT-AT figures VeVe releases later, this October 2025 set is the walker's debut on the platform.
Collector's Note
The AT-AT is one of the most recognizable machines in Star Wars, and the animated build gives it more to do than a static ship model. For most collectors the base March of the Empire is the target: an affordable, feature-rich first of a marquee vehicle, often below retail on the secondary market. For the completists, the 80-edition HOTH Deployment is the trophy, and the craftable Frozen March of the Empire is the reward for stacking editions. All of it trades on the VeVe secondary market and StackR. New to VeVe? Grab $10 off your first purchase.
