Star Wars and LEGO Sets
Thus far there have been 7 movies released based on the Star Wars storyline. LucasFilms has done a tremendous job marketing these films and creating products based on these movies. One of the more popular products for the Star Wars movies is LEGO sets. The LEGO Group signed on with LucasFilms in 1999 to recreate scenes from each movie and the response from fans has proven to be very positive.
The Phantom Menace was released in 1999, many years after the original movies were released. The LEGO Group has released quite a few sets based on this movie which include the Mos Espa Podrace, the now famous scene from the Phantom Menace. The Mos Espa Podrace includes quite a few Star Wars LEGO mini figures which is even more reason why this LEGO set is prized by collectors.
Episode II: Attack of the Clones is the second prequel released. It was released in 2002. The Episode II LEGO sets include what could be argued as the most popular of Star Wars LEGO Sets. The LEGO Group has released a few versions of the Slave I but this may be the most popular. It includes Jango Fett, Boba Fett's "father."
The third movie released for the prequel trilogy is the Revenge of the Sith. This film was released in 2005 and is the final movie in this series. The Clone Turbo Tank 7261 is one of the sets released for this system and is a definite must have for Star Wars LEGO collectors. It includes the Mace Windu LEGO mini figure and several other minifigs as well. The Clone Turbo Tank is a great representation of the actual tank from the movie itself.
Episode IV: A New Hope is the very first movie released by Lucasfilms way back in 1977. The LEGO Group didn't released the first Episode IV LEGO set until 1999! This is because it took that long for the two of them to come together and form a partnership.
The Empire Strikes Back was the second film released of the original movies. This film was originally released in 1980. Episode V LEGO sets include some highly prized Star Wars LEGO mini figures including Boba Fett, a Han Solo in carbonite, and Emperor Palpatine. A great LEGO set to own from this series of LEGO sets is the Cloud City 10123.
The Return of the Jedi is the final installment in the original series of movies. Return of the Jedi LEGO sets include some really cool Star Wars LEGO Mini figures like the mini figures from the Jabba the Hutt series of sets, Jabba the Hutt himself, a disguised Lando, and a half naked Princess Leia.
The Clone Wars movie is based on the like named animated series of a few years back. The LEGO sets produced around this movie are different from other Star Wars LEGO Sets in that LEGO went for an animated look with the mini figures that are included with these sets. - 23815
