The Lucasfilm Animation building as the perfect example of the influence Star Wars has over the world. Known best for their Star Wars franchise, it seems only natural that they would model their new headquarters after something found in those films. In this case, they chose the Sandcrawler.
Located in Singapore, the Lucasfilm Animation building is breaking ground as we speak. It is set to be an eight story structure that will feature Star Wars decor (of course), a 100-seat theater (why not?) and state-of-the-art production facilities (they have to do some work, you know).
Once the Lucasfilm Animation building is complete, maybe we'll see AT-AT and AT-ST structures spring-up somewhere.
