Not quite. Having to wait a month or more after the release date for the product to arrive at my house sucks ๐

You see some of the instructions here, I figure if you look at these and the Rebel AT-RT build instructions you could likely get what you need for it.
Here you have it, sorry for not the best light but it's late here.
I figured them out eventually, but I found that the legs weren't that well done on how they fix the peg on the central chassis isnt straight but has an angle on it so when you put the legs in they don't go in straight. Perhaps I've done something wrong on building it but to me it looked like the small arm that holds the leg onto the body (the piston) is what holds the leg straight
Wait... who has a republic RT to assemble anyway?

Seems like European stores here and there already got their stock delivered and pre-ordering clients have had their boxes distributed.
I know I had.

A large number of distributors/stores broke street date.
Whole Europe released everything on 4th. I've got 2x AT-RT and 2x STAP.

The store where I buy all the Legion stuff didn't sell anything yet.
Check at official Asmodee distributor in your country.
I've got 2 ATRT and I even played against 2 on a clone army at a competition I'm using the sprues to make rebel atrt
Edited by syrathDang, my FLGS won't be getting them till late October...
I guess that's the repayment for actually getting plenty of BXs on time.
Comic guy in the Simpsons says. "Worst instructions ever!"
If I manage to get my AT-RT and Special Forces by the 18th I'll be amazed.
I'm looking forward to the AT-RT though, the model looks fun!
we got nothing here at all still don't have my bx cad bane b2 all where per-ordered bane was because i ordered him with bx to save on shipping.
I received and assembled the AT-RT yesterday (without assembly instructions because they are still nowhere to be found). I'll probably try and find a second one when I can. Some lessons learned:
- The top of the model i.e. everything that sits above the leg joints, all assembles very easy and intuitively. You don't really need instructions for that part because it has shaped peg-to-hole connections that is hard to mess up. It also doesn't move so it can be glued and sit and dry separately.
- If I were to assemble it all over again I would start with the legs. It's hard to do that with no instructions because you don't know where the feet are going to land on the base before you assemble the upper legs and there are upper leg options. So the best way to do that is to start by dry-fitting the upper legs to the hips and deciding which upper legs you want to use (there are 2 different options for each side). You will also have to dry-fit the lower legs and feet as best as you can so you can figure out what the upper leg option will end up looking like.
- The feet are hard to land right so you have to get a general idea of how the leg is going to be and where it will land and then plastic glue and hold the legs in place. This is the hardest part because the ankles don't really dry-fit and the feet are in 3 pieces. Try not to yell at anyone around you as you try and hold these in place to dry.
- Once you get the legs glued together and feet glued to the base you are home free. Just glue together the top and set it on the hips (make sure when you are drying the legs the hip hole for the top is up)
I think this version of the AT-RT looks a lot better than the Rebel core set version and it is more customizable. FFG should have included some assembly instructions though. Good luck!

Not necessary as far as I know for hardpoints. Hardpoint upgrades are not WYSIWYG barring specific tournament rules to the contrary. Which I don't recall seeing any specifying otherwise.
Anyone have a closeup of the heads? I see there are 2 different variations.
