Star Wars: The Clone Wars LEGO Sets

08.08.2009 · Posted in Home and Garden Articles

Since the end of the millenium, The LEGO Group has been grinding out Star Wars LEGO systems and keeping fans interested and excited about the theme. Star Wars LEGO sets have been created with the intent building fans for the Star Wars franshise and LEGO systems. The LEGO Group never created LEGO systems around other licensed goods before they signed on with LucasFilms but because of the popularity of the Star Wars theme LEGO has built on this popularity by putting out even more licensed building blocks like Mickey Mouse, Sponge Bob Square Pants and Spider Man. nnThe Release of the Star Wars: The Clone Wars movie meant to many LEGO fans that LEGO would be selling a new Star Wars LEGO theme. The Clone Wars LEGO sets have not been a dissapointment to fans of either the Star Wars franchise, nor LEGO fans. This new theme has been built with the Clone Wars film in mind and has really done this movie justice. nnThis relatively new series of LEGO sets is doing very well and are as successful as the previous Star Wars LEGOs. Some fans thought LEGO might be hard-pressed to create new LEGO systems based on the Clone Wars because so many of the ships and characters in this movie were the same as LEGO systems already released. LEGO did not disappoint. They created a series of LEGOs that do not deviate from the movie at all and still manage to have unique minifigs and vehicles. nnA personal favorite Clone Wars LEGO set of mine is the MagnaGuard Starfighter LEGO Set. This set is not the most complicated or detailed Clone Wars LEGO set by far but the included MagnaGaurd droid mini figures are a very cool addition to my collection. Along with the mini figures the Starfighter is a very fun build itself. It is chalk full of weapons and the Starfighter also has a cool space in the wings for each of the MagnaGuard droids’ weapons! There is also a gun that flips up in the back of the Starfighter. nnSince The Clone Wars’ release, LEGO has put out twenty three LEGO sets based on this film. These releases will ensure that the Clone Wars LEGO sets will be popular for awhile. The LEGO group always does a great job at getting the word out about new producsts. That fact, along with the Star Wars films’ popularity should keep these LEGO sets moving. We also know that many LEGO sets become collectible items, especially Star Wars LEGOs! Because of this, it’s a smart move to get your hands on the Clone Wars LEGO Sets while they are available.
