Walker

Every walker was only as strong as its weakest joint.
"These weapons of war would be awe-inspiring, were they not so terrifying."
―Supreme Chancellor Palpatine[src]

A walker was any vehicle, usually military, that used legs as its primary method of locomotion rather than the more common repulsors, wheels, or treads. The term could also refer to especially large droids with legs (usually combat droids), though such droids were usually referred to using more specific terminology (such as "spider droid"). The All Terrain series contained some of the most well known examples of walkers.

Walkers in other mediaEdit

Star Wars has popularized the use of various walkers and mechs in various media, from various Japanese anime to video games like Command and Conquer and Metal Gear Solid. Most of these mechs bear resemblance to the AT-ST. Also, Japanese scientists have constructed a Land Walker which might have been inspired by Star Wars walkers.

OriginEdit

George Lucas claims he got the original idea for walkers from the cargo lifters which reside in the port of Oakland.[1][2]
