One of the scenes George and his marry men wanted to do for the Battle of Hoth sequence was have a damaged T-47 hurdle through the sky and slam right in the face of one of the AT-STs. OUCH!
That is correct!!!

i do agree with you, i noticed that when i saw the movies. mabye they were supposed to be different. the AT-ST's on Hoth were ment for Hoth they needed to move faster to get the enemy, and it was a flat terrain. now the Endor AT-ST's were smaller b/c they were ment for tighter spaces. stuff like that

Why can't they just redo all the battle scenes where there aren't any people? Hoth, Endor and Yavin could all be made much better.

Go watch RotJ. The ones on Endor are also pretty tall. Especially in the shot where there's two of them walking and gunning down ewoks ((what joy!))
