LEGO Star Wars Releases 20th Anniversary Editions

The past 20 years have seen some epic construction kits for Star Wars and LEGO fans. LEGO was undoubtedly inspired by the Star Wars franchise, as it would be this collective edition that would see a lot of record-breaking moments for their much loved construction kits.

Minifigure collectors likely had hearts in their eyes when they saw the very first LEGO figure to not have the iconic rounded head, when it was released in February 1999 as part of the brand new LEGO Star Wars collection.

Quite a few of the largest consumer builds available on the market are part of the Star Wars franchise, including the Sandcrawler, two versions of the Death Star, and the Millenium Falcon.

Watch the Time-Lapsed Video of the LEGO 20th Anniversary Logo Build

LEGO Star Wars Time-Lapsed Build of 20th Anniversary Logo

I’m absolutely giggling that there is a half-built Marvel Captain America shield in the first time-lapsed shot for the 20th Anniversary Logo build.

The First Star Wars LEGO Sets from 1999

There were 9 LEGO Star Wars Sets to start off the wild 20 year journery, back in 1999, including:

Ultimate Collector Series X-Wing Fighter

I imagine fans flat out begged for LEGO to take their money the moment they saw the iconic X-Wing in the sleek Collectors box.

LEGO System Anakin’s Podracer

Anakin’s Podracer was an inspirational design.

The first 20 Years of LEGO Star Wars has been a wild ride. Check it out!

LEGO Star Wars Slave l – 20th Anniversary Edition 75243 Building Kit (1007 Piece)

Possibly my favourite out of the sets is the LEGO Star Wars Slave I – everything is awesome in the set, from the Boba Fett minifigure and Slave I starship, to the collector’s edition Princess Leia, and the carbonite box of Han Solo! This construction kit is full of awesome.

If you’re a minifigures fan, you’ll appreciate that Darth Vader, Yoda, Chewi and the Ewoks have gone through some makeovers throughout the years too!

LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader as Santa.
Santa.
The many variations of LEGO Star Wars Yoda… I almost want to see him use the ‘saber as a walking stick now.
Chewbacca gets a makeover, and a Christmas special.
It’s the e-e-e-Ewoks in all their LEGO glory!
