The Lego Group has so far released a collection of Lego Star Wars sets for each of the Star Wars movies. The Lego games have done a very good job of Star Wars making the vehicles and characters resemble the scenes they belong in. Lego takes their extremely popular building block toy and uses them to bring our favorite movie, Star Wars, to life. These Lego sets are loved by both Star Wars movie fans and Lego fans alike and have made Star Wars Lego the most popular range that Lego has. The high demand for these sets has made some of them very rare and subsequently valuable Star Wars collectibles.

Lego Star Wars Games: A New Hope

The first and original movie is called Star Wars: A New Hope, but when I was a kid it came out just as Star Wars. This movie might just be the best and is the base most Lego Star Wars games start from. A New Hope has many sets made by Lego. The most important set that Lego made would be the Millennium Falcon based on this movie. The Millennium Falcon had over 5,000 bricks and a handful of minifigures, plus it was the biggest Lego set you could buy. Lego also has two other Millennium Falcon ships, however they are much smaller scale and don’t have the cool minifigures.

Lego Star Wars Games: The Empire Strikes Back

The Empire Strikes Back is the fourth film in the lineage of Star Wars films, however it is actually the second film made by LucasFilms. For moviegoers this is a classic and it was a very profitable movie. Although there are many Lego games based on this episode, my favorite would be Bob Fetts Slave 1, the original is rare, including the minifigure. There is also a second version of the Slave I starship, the Slave I 6209, which is a much better build with a few more minifigures and quite a bit more detailed. The Empire Strikes Back Lego range has some other good sets: the expensive and hard to find Cloud City and the nice Tie Bomber.

Lego Star Wars Games: Return of the Jedi

The Return of the Jedi is the latest installment in the Starwars film series, but it was only the third film made by LucasFilms. This classic movie is the last movie in the series. Lego has created an excellent range of games based on this episode with some great sets and rare minifigures. Jabba the Hutt is a good example of this. The Jabba The Hutt Lego series sets are really good and quite extensive. Any collector would love any or all of Jabba’s sets: Jabbas’ Award, Jabbas’ Message, and Jabbas’ Palace.

Star Wars Lego Games: The Clone Wars

The last movie that was made is an animated one called The Clone Wars. The Lego company really did a good job making these Clone Wars Lego sets. The Lego Clone Wars sets have some great minifigures like Plo Koon and Aayla. This series has some great games like Lego Pirate Tank which is owned by Hondo. What makes this nice is that the pirate tank is not seen in any other Star Wars movie.

Star Wars Lego Games: The Expanded Universe

There are only a couple of Lego games in the Expanded Universe series. These are the TIE Crawler, which includes two Shadow Troopers, the Rogue Shadow, which includes Darth Vader and Juno Eclipse, and the Imperial Speeder Bike, which includes a Stormtrooper.
