Class 4 article


General Veers is a Star Wars minifigure that was first released in 2007.

Background

Maximilian Veers was an elite Imperial Officer that was most notable for leading the Thundering Herd AT-AT squadron and the Snowtrooper Blizzard Force to victory against the Rebel Alliance on Hoth, destroying their base and causing them to flee.

Variations

General Veers first appeared in the video game LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy, in 2006. However, he only appears in a cut-scene, as his AT-AT approaches the Echo Base. This scene was re-used in 2007 for the the video game LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga, but in both games he appears only in cut-scenes and is not a playable character.

In the same year, General Veers' first physical variant appeared exclusively in the set 10178 Motorized Walking AT-AT, using similar pieces to a then-standard Imperial Officer minifigure.

In 2010, a re-designed minifigure of General Veers appeared in the set 8129 AT-AT Walker, which again looked very similar to the concurrently released Imperial Officer in Hoth Combat Gear figure in the 8084 Snowtrooper Battle Pack.

He was later-redesigned in 2014 for 75054 AT-AT with a completely new look, including a unique head.
