Yeah man, so the AT-AT drivers were repainted TIE Fighter pilots with other details added and modified so you could use a base TIE form and go from there and get two different sets of armour :)

My understanding is that it was a modified TK back plate and chest plate, a new chest box and of course a X-wing helmet with a TK faceplate with hoses attached. The rest is soft goods for hte TIE and Snowtrooper shoulder bells for the AT-AT Driver.
