Since this Wiki is pretty much dead, i decided to create a new one, a fresh start you might call it. Here is the link if you want to help out: LEGO_St…So why is this the last LEGO gallery of Toy Fair 2015? Just ask Vanessa Williams! Outdated references aside, I digress. LEGO continues to provide the broadest range of Star Wars toys out there, with new toys consistently coming covering every major era, from The Clone Wars to the Original Trilogy, from Star Wars Rebels to well, at least the promise of The Force Awakens. While some of the product on display is already on the shelves, 2015 promises to be a great year for LEGO Star Wars fans. You've already seen the official shots of the new 1685 piece TIE Fighter, but we have some new looks at it from our in-person visit. While there wasn't anything from the new film yet, and only a couple of Rebels sets, the new 724 piece "Death Star Final Duel" set featuring Luke, Vader (with removable helmet revealing his decrepit Anakin form), and the Force Lightning-wielding Emperor was the real stand-out.
Well, that and a womp rat (though it's not really to scale...) Check out what LEGO has in store for Star Wars for 2015, and of course, there will be new sets revealed later in the year.

Since 1999 the STAR WARS license has given us sets based on several scenes and ships from the saga. With lots of products released, almost every moment from the original trilogy can be recreated with LEGO bricks.But there are still too many scenes from the prequel trilogy that have not been translated into LEGO sets. The Clone Wars series has helped to the release (and re-release) of some vehicles, but there is still too much work to do.
My idea is to create a set based on the General Grievous’ flagship, The Invisible Hand.There are already some examples of capital ships made in LEGO sets:-6211 Imperial Star Destroyer-7665 Republic Cruiser-8039 Venator-Class Republic Attack Cruiser-10198 Tantive IV-7964 Republic Frigate-10221 Super Star Destroyer-9515 MalevolenceLike the sets showed above, the Invisible Hand would be a big set that recreates the exterior appearance of the craft, featuring playable interior for the minifigures.The separatist’ fleet have a minor amount of LEGO sets than the republic in the Clone Wars series, but this ship can equilibrate this disadvantage.Model specifications (note that this could change if the project becomes a product)Pieces: 2562Measures: 92’60 x 20’70 x 43 cm aprox.High Resolution pictureAlso, following the idea of the set 10188 Death Star, the playable interior contains each moment showed in the film.-The ceiling can be lifted to reveal the hangar.-Ship’s hangar includes sliding doors, cranes, two storage rooms and elevator’s entrance.-The communications pod can be taken apart to display the room where Palpatine is imprisoned.
-[NEW]There’s a storage floor beneath the hangar for small vehicles like a stap.-An elevator goes through the hangar, the storage floor, a small room behind the engines and Palpatine’s prison.-An ejectable Flak gun -The corridor where Obi-Wan, Anakin and Palpatine are captured. -An escape pod.-The front of the ship can be lifted to reveal the command bridge.-[NEW] The Invisible Hand can split in two separate parts,-[NEW] The ship has some retractable emergency flaps.-[NEW] UCS sticker included.The set 10188 contained a small TIE Advanced that allowed putting a minifigure inside. Following the same, this Invisible Hand set would include the ETA-2 Actis-Class Jedi Starfighters of Anakin and Obi-Wan. There are big enough to accommodate a minifigure and enough small to fit inside the flagship’s hangar. The set would also include a Vulture Droid, which can also turn into walking configuration.The set would include 18 minifigures:-R2-D2-Commander Battle Droid-x2 Security Droids-x2 Pilot Droids-x2 Super Battle Droids-x2 Magnaguards-[NEW] General Grievous (Ep. III variant with cape)-[NEW] Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ep. III variant, with headset)-[NEW] Anakin Skywalker (Ep. III variant with headset)-Count Dooku (movie version)-[NEW] Chancellor Palpatine (movie version)-[NEW] Lushros Dofine-[NEW] Buzz Droid (New design)-[NEW] Droideka (New design)-R4-P17 dome (in Obi-Wan’s Starfighter)The Obi-Wan and Anakin minifigures should have alternate heads with the microphones for
The destroyer droid, or droideka, is nearer to the minifigure scale than the previous ones. It also can be turned in wheel configuration.PICTURE GALLERYHigh Resolution UCS StickerMINIFIGURE'S DECAL SHEETDECAL SHEET (White Backgrounds)Jedi Interceptor Microfighter-Building instructionsMEDIA COVERAGEEurobricks STAR WARS forum blogHoth BricksImperium der SteineGroove BricksThanks for reading, and please don’t forget to support if you like the idea. If you also love STAR WARS, check out my Redemption - Nebulon-B escort frigate project and other projects on CUUSOO !Star Wars fans around the world are daring to hope that new film The Force Awakens will be as good as its promo clip makes it look – or at least better than The Phantom Menace. Early ticket sales suggest optimism on that point. But with two months to go until the new movie premieres, how can you fill the time? Unsurprisingly, there are apps for that. In fact, Star Wars has generated a whole mini-industry of mobile games and apps in its own right.
Here are 10 of the best to fuel your Force fetish in the runup to Christmas. Where you see “IAP”, that means in-app purchases. Star Wars (Free)Android / iOSThere are plenty of ways to keep tabs on Star Wars news and clips: Facebook, Twitter and YouTube for starters. Yet the official Star Wars app may be worth a slot on your homescreen, in the short term at least. It pulls in social updates and news, while adding historical trivia, videos and the obligatory themed selfie filters. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (£7.99)Android / iOSWith decades of Star Wars games to draw on, this is still regularly hailed by hardcore fans as the best of the lot. Originally a PC and console game in 2003, it has since returned in a faithful mobile port. Best enjoyed on a tablet, it’s a deep, rewarding RPG set in the Star Wars universe, with freedom to plot your own party and path. Star Wars: Uprising (Free + IAP)Android / iOSThis is the most recent Star Wars game for mobile devices, made by movie specialist Kabam – which previously turned The Hobbit, The Lord of The Rings and Fast & Furious into popular games.
It’s another RPG that plugs the gap between episodes VI and VII of Star Wars, as you create a character and set out to make your fortune with a mix of solo and online co-operative play. Star Wars Scene Maker (Free + IAP)iOSThis is a marvellous creative app for young Star Wars fans, helping them to create scenes from the film franchise with their favourite characters and music – and to supply the voice dialogue themselves. Yes, the famous credits are included too. It’s like a virtual puppet theatre, with a range of themed scenery packs available to buy as in-app purchases. Star Wars: Commander - Worlds in Conflict (Free + IAP)Android / iOS / Windows PhoneThe game that generated a thousand Clash of Clones jokes when it was released, based on its similarity to mobile hit Clash of Clans. It’s true that its blend of base-building and raiding is very reminiscent of that game, but with plenty of iconic characters and vehicles to root this firmly in Star Wars territory. Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga (Free + IAP)Android / iOSThe Lego Star Wars games are as polished as the television series, and offer another playable way in to the franchise for children.
This brings together all the mobile Lego Star Wars games, with the constituent parts bought using in-app purchases. It’s a sprawling game with masses of characters and missions to explore. Angry Birds Star Wars II (Free + IAP)Android / iOS / Windows PhoneAngry Birds’ star may have waned a little over the last two years, but it’s worth remembering the excellent job that developer Rovio did with both of its official Star Wars tie-ins. Start with the second, which applies the familiar bird-slinging formula to the Star Wars universe, with lots of little touches that fans will love. Star Wars Journeys: Beginnings (Free + IAP)iOSAnother app that’s intended for children, even if adults will want to sneak the odd go too. It’s a mixture of gameplay and storytelling, taking kids through the prequel trilogy of Star Wars with pod racing, arena battles and – something that parents will appreciate – a fair amount of reading. BB-8 App Enabled Droid Powered by Sphero (Free)Android / iOSThe massive caveat here is that you’ll need to spend £135 on Sphero’s BB-8 drone toy to use this app, so it’s one for fans with deep pockets only.
Even so, the robot toy has been winning rave reviews, based on the new droid character in The Force Awakens. The app controls the toy’s movements, as well as turning your video clips into virtual holograms. Star Wars: Card Trader (Free + IAP)Android / iOSFinally, the idea of an app to collect digital (ie not real) trading cards may seem bizarre. But Topps’ Card Trader app has been warmly welcomed by app store reviewers for its collection of Star Wars cards right back to the original sets in the early 1980s. It’s part trading game and part historical rabbit hole. That’s my selection of 10, although several apps were unlucky to miss out. If you’re a fan of the card-battler game genre, check out Konami’s Star Wars: Force Collection, while tower defence fans (if not sticklers for English spelling) will prefer DeNA’s Star Wars: Galactic Defense. Children may enjoy the puzzle-focused Star Wars: Heroes Path or slick action game Star Wars Rebels: Recon Missions, based on the Rebels TV show.
