Clone Wars LEGO Bricks Sets

By Peter Barnes

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.

The 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.

The Clone Wars theme of LEGOs has lived up to the hype. Thus far it has proven to be as successful as the other Star Wars systems. Many fans may have believed that LEGO would not be able to put out enough Clone Wars themed LEGO sets because many of the ships and people in the Clone Wars film are the same as in previous movies but this has not been the case. LEGO has been able to create a system that has the look and feel of the Clone Wars films which keeps fans hungry for more.

One of my favorite Clone Wars LEGO systems is Anakins personal starship, The Twilight. The Twilight features four Star Wars LEGO minifigures, retractable landing gear, wings that can move to a landing mode and back to a flight mode. This starship is loaded down with armament including firing flick missile and laser cannons. There is also an escape pod and a tow cable. The mini figures included in this Clone Wars LEGO set are Anakin Skywalker, Ahsoka Tano, Rotta the Hutt and R2-D2. It's a real treat when a LEGO set has plenty of minifigs.

The LEGO Group always does great work at building and keeping interest in its LEGO themes and the Clone Wars theme is no exception. LEGO will also release more Clone Wars themed LEGO sets as long as they continue to remain popular. This should continue to feed demand for these LEGO Sets. It is a good idea for collectors to jump on the bandwagon early becasue the LEGO Group is known for putting out LEGO sets for a certain amount of time and then discontinuing a set, thus creating a rare item. - 23812
