In a galaxy not so far away, LEGO has found a unique way to celebrate Father’s Day by creating a heartwarming short film that features one of the most iconic father-son duos in the Star Wars universe: the Skywalkers. The film, released on June 18 to coincide with Father’s Day, offers an alternate, more cheerful ending to the famous saga. It picks up from the climactic showdown in Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, where an animated Darth Vader minifigure is seen Force-choking Luke Skywalker after the latter tries to give him a wrapped present. Despite his struggles, Luke uses the Force to successfully gift the present to his father, revealing it to be a Star Wars-style mug emblazoned with “#1 Dad”. This simple act of gifting triggers a wave of emotions in Vader. He looks at Luke and imagines all the memories they could have shared together on Tatooine….

A Look Inside the LEGO Star Wars Holiday Special
The holiday season is approaching. Are you ready? This is a wonderous, magical time of the year, and it’s also a time when all of our favorite shows give us holiday specials. Starwars.com gives us an inside look at the Lego Star Wars holiday special Here’s a snippet: “”The creative team looked at their own favorite holiday classics, from Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer to Planes, Trains, and Automobiles, for inspiration. And what they found was that that kind of storytelling was a surprisingly good fit for Star Wars. “I think what aligns so much about these specials with Star Wars is that, at the end of the day, you don’t have a good Star Wars story if you don’t have heart. If you don’t have soul,” Waugh says. “And I think the reason those holiday stories are timeless is because there are lessons. Whether all of those specials are great or not, they are trying to…

In fact, they’ve been putting out at least one per year for more than 15 years now. Some of those years, the UK developer put out as many as three Elgo games. They’ve made games on all your favorite famous IPs and franchises and it has been a long, glorious ride.

Giant LEGO Imperial Star Destroyer
If you’ve read our site for any amount of time now, you already know that I am a big fan of LEGO and Star Wars. If you’re just popping in with us for this article, well, I love LEGO and Star Wars. I do not think I’m alone in this passion because there are some really great Star Wars LEGO creations out there. That said, this just might be my all-time favorite. This is an amazing piece of work. This person should be a Master Builder for sure. He said he just wanted to build something that would be like his own dream set but this is really, really incredible. The attention to detail, the amount of painstaking work that likely went into it… it’s crazy. I’m not even sure where to begin with explaining how awesome this one is. Here’s a description from the builder: ISD Tyrant with LEGO’s…
Star Wars Posters by LEGO
I love LEGO and I love Star Wars. I’ve written about this before here on the site. So you can imagine how excited I get when LEGO and Star Wars come together, as they often do. Here is a really cool example of that in these Star Wars posters by LEGO. Someone has taken the time to put them together side-by-side. Despite the last one being flipped, it’s a really good way to see all of them at once like this the way the original posters were intended to be viewed. LEGO Star Wars Posters I really love the creativity that went into recreating each poster so that it looks like the originals, but with LEGO flair. The last poster doesn’t quite have the same style and I read somewhere that it was a fan creation but I can’t seem to find any solid facts confirming this. Still, I like…
The Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens Trailer is Hilarious
Lego Star Wars games are some of my favorite games—they let you relive the Star Wars experience, but bring something new to it (usually that “something new” is hilarity). And the new trailer for Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens definitely has me looking forward to a new entry in the series. Between an X-Wing with windshield wipers, BB-8 running into things, and the Stormtrooper playing with the light switch on the troop transport, this trailer is really funny, and I can’t wait to see more from this game. It’s not out until 28 June, but we’ll be keeping you updated on any new information as soon as it comes out. Until then, what was your favorite Lego Star Wars game or scene? (I’ve always enjoyed playing as my favorite bounty hunter, IG-88.) Let us know your favorites below!
SWTOR Fighter Fleet Out of Lego
You know how we love fans doing cool stuff. Here we have someone creating a Star Wars fleet out of LEGO. You can see a picture below. One is a Flashfire the other a Novadrive. It’s a simple but accurate start to a Star Fleet, in my opinion. Check this out: It was the first one he did but he didn’t stop there. He continued to build more ships and the results are pretty amazing. Here are more: SWTOR fleet update And: Update 8/1/2015 Star Wars Fleet And: G-9 Rigger Falcon vs Ghost mid build Ebon Hawk Bounty Hunter fleet update And what he says was his most difficult build to date: Sun Crusher
KOTFE in LEGO
Allow me to remind everyone again of how I love Star Wars and LEGO. Then you’ll understand why I love this fan art done with LEGO to represent KOTFE and I think you can appreciate it too, even if you’re not a big LEGO fan like me. These were created by a fan named Qeusen and posted to DeviantArt and took about an hour to render. The eyebrows are an especially nice touch (you’ll know what I mean if you saw the trailer). It will be nice if we get more actual TOR LEGO sets. And if the new movie gets an accompanying LEGO game, all the better! This is a very cute fan creation, however. While it’d surely take forever, it’d be awesome to see the entire trailer done in LEGO. Do you have any LEGO Star Wars/ LEGO TOR creations of your own? We want to see them!…
Star Wars Battlefront Classes in LEGO Form
Okay, regular readers know what a big LEGO fan I am. There are few things I love more than LEGO Star Wars so I found this pretty cool and had to share it with you. You can see from the images below that another fan created some Star Wars Battlefront classes out of minifigs. They’re pretty spot on with what the real classes would look like and the builder had a fine eye for detail when it comes to getting these right. battle front classes Here we have seven images that depict the Star Wars Battlefront classes. There’s the Clone Trooper, Heavy Trooper, Sharpshooter, Engineer, Clone Commander, and Jet Trooper. The Jet Trooper’s gun isn’t exactly spot on since it should be a little bit wider but we think he did awesome with what he had to work with. You could probably also do Rebels and Stormtroopers if you wanted…
LEGO Star Wars Sets List

The set lists are out and there are some pretty cool things for The Force Awakens, the Original Trilogy, Rebels, Battlefront and more. The crew over at MintinBox have some very interesting info about the 2016 winter sets (awesome since the Summer 2015 sets are not even out yet). The list is extensive, meaning we will see a lot of Star Wars LEGO upcoming (no surprise based on the release of the new film).

SWTOR XS Stock Freighter LEGO MOC
Here is a really awesome LEGO project by DrewRaub. Here he has an Imgur album detailing the design and building of his SWTOR MOC. Those of you who have been reading our site for awhile know that I am a huge nerd for all things LEGO and all things Star Wars so of course, I’m a fan of SWTOR/Star Wars LEGO sets. While this is a very niche set, the OP could still post it to LEGO ideas, as they are great about monitoring it and getting fan favorites into action. You can also order/buy the pieces and build the set yourself but it will run you around $275-300 based on the creator’s guidelines and the current cost of LEGO bricks. Whether you want to get it and build it yourself or just admire the great creative job by Drew, it’s pretty awesome so we’ll share his full album below so you…

LEGO Star Wars Sith Fighter Knights of the Old Republic
There is a really cool project over on LEGO Ideas that we want to tell you about. STAR WARS – Sith Fighter – Knights of the Old Republic is a project we very much want to see happen. It currently has 16 days left and nearly 700 supporters at the time we write this. Here is some info from the description: The Sith fighter was a starfighter that formed the bulk of Darth Revan and Darth Malak‘s space forces during the Jedi Civil War, as portrayed in the videogame STAR WARS – Knights of the Old Republic (KOTOR), nearly 4000 years before Darth Vader’s rising to power.

What to do when your lego Super Star Destroyer isn’t big enough!
LEGO builder Thomas Benedikt has a dream and it is ginormous! He wants to build a 13-ft Lego Super Star Destroyer and he’s using Kickstarter to meet his $15,ooo goal. In case you’re wondering, Lego already offers a 4-ft star destroyer but apparently that wasn’t big enough for Thomas’ dreams.
Custom LEGO SWTOR Blackbolt
You know how we love bringing you cool Star Wars and SWTOR related stuff. And if you’ve followed my posts here over the past few years, you also know that I am a big LEGO fan. So we are very happy to bring you this cool story of a custom LEGO SWTOR Blackbolt. The builder/creator had this to say about it on Reddit: “A couple firsts for me here: first reddit post, first lego set I bought since childhood (Fury Interceptor), and first custom lego build. The ship and its landing platform are entirely built from the Fury set and there were many leftover pieces.” I wonder how long it took to build this? The images in the gallery below give a good guideline of the process of how it was done. I love to see creative projects like this where people take their LEGO sets and make something original…
