Quick and Spoiler Free Review Of Lego Star Wars The Freemaker Adventures Season One

Posted on by

Lego Star Wars The Freemaker Adventures Season One begins after the events of The Empire Strikes Back and before Return of the Jedi. It follows a family of scavengers that build and sell starships from debris they find throughout the galaxy. The family’s youngest discovers a connection with the Force and the family is thrown into a struggle against the Empire. They fight to bring peace and freedom to the galaxy.

This blu-ray has 13 action-packed episodes with a total running time of 299 minutes.  Our copy comes with 6 exclusive magnets.  This disc features:

Freemaker Salvage And Repair – Visit the shop with the finest salvage in the galaxy as Rowan, Kordi and Zander take you on a tour of the family business.

Meet The Freemaker Family – Get to know the members of your favorite family of celestial scavengers — and meet the actors who bring them to life — in this fun collection of clips, behind-the-scenes footage and cast interviews!

This series is clearly targeted to a young audience, but older Star Wars fans can enjoy it too! The episodes focus on the characters and action in a humorous way. The show features some great cameos from Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker and more! It is a fun series that will make you laugh.

The entire show and characters are all made of Lego. The animation of the Legos is fantastic. It makes for some great action scenes!  This series is entertaining for the whole family. It does contain some minor or implied violence but it is very mild and no graphic violence or death is seen. The language is family friendly with some name calling. The episodes are mostly playful.

I recommend Lego Star Wars The Freemaker Adventures Season One. The series is fantastic, has a twist or two and just might have you laughing out loud!

We would like to thank Disney for providing us with this copy to review.  Click below to get your own copy now!

READY TO REBEL…WITH LEGO BRICKS? CHECK OUT STARWARS.COM’S GUIDE FOR LEGO ROGUE ONE PRODUCTS.

Since the release of the prequels in 1999, LEGO has been at the forefront of each new Star Wars release, whether it be a movie or a TV show, and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is no exception. There are eight new sets available with price points to suit all, ranging from $24.99 to $89.99. Each of the sets comes packaged in the new Rogue One-themed boxes featuring the ominous looking Death Trooper. Let’s see what’s out there for LEGO rebels!

Constraction/Buildable Figures

The popular Constraction or Buildable figures, first introduced by LEGO in the Star Wars theme last year, continues with three new characters from Rogue One — Sergeant Jyn Erso (set #75119; 104 pieces), K-2SO (set #75120; 169 pieces), and Imperial Death Trooper (set #75121; 106 pieces) — each are available for $24.99. These impressive posable figures are all in scale with each other, with Jyn standing 9” tall, and K-2SO at over 11” tall. While Jyn and the Death Trooper feature blaster rifles with spring loaded shooters, K-2SO features a single/double arm-swinging battle function.

New Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens Download Let’s Players Harness The Dark Side

Relive the assault on Maz Kanata’s castle from Kylo Ren’s point of view

The Force has awakened once again – but this time it’s darker.

The latest downloadable content (DLC) for LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens gives players a chance to embrace the dark side, following in the footsteps of Darth Vader’s number one fan, Kylo Ren. EW has the exclusive first look at the new episode, “First Order Siege of Takodana,” which throws fans back into the thrilling assault against Maz Kanata’s castle.

Joined by the First Order, Kylo Ren pushes forward on his search for Resistance spies Rey and BB-8. Players can wield Ren’s iconic T-shaped lightsaber and Force powers, along with the additional members of the First Order, including FN-1044 (Stormtrooper), Jascho Phurus, Rosser Weno, Stormtrooper Officer, Strono Tuggs, Thromba, Laparo, Jakku Freighter (full-size vehicle and micro fighter vehicle).

This darker take adds to the newly expanded Force Awakens story through DLC, which recently featured Poe Dameron’s narrative between crash-landing on Jakku and appearing on Takodana. Fans can purchase the Season Pass for LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens to receive the latest content, as well as all previous and upcoming episodes for Playstation 4 and Xbox One. “First Order Siege of Takodana” is coming soon.

Lego’s New Krennic Imperial Shuttle Set Drops Hints About ‘Star Wars: Rogue One’

Posted on by

Via Dailydot.com:

The first and totally understandable question you might have when diving into the new Krennic Imperial Shuttle Lego set from the upcoming Star Wars: Rogue One movie is, who or what the heck is a “Krennic?”

A picture at the bottom of the box provides a clue. Krennic is indeed a “he”—or more specifically, the white-cape-wearing Director Krennic. Some judicious Googling turns up more information.

Orson Krennic, played by Ben Mendelsohn in the movie, is the director of advanced weapons research for the Imperial military. In a nutshell, he’s the guy responsible for building the Death Star.

Such a notorious figure in fictional history should have a suitably nefarious-looking ride, which is where his Imperial Shuttle comes in.

Krennic’s ship borrows design elements from previous Star Wars films, looking like a hybrid of the Emperor’s shuttle from Return of the Jedi and Kylo Ren’s ominous transport in The Force Awakens.

Krennic’s shuttle is topped by a shark-like fin, and its wings fold down like the Emperor’s shuttle, but its black color exudes the same bad-ass vibe as Ren’s.

Details of Star Wars movie plot points are generally closely guarded secrets, which is what makes the release of new Lego sets before the associated film so interesting. Lego has a habit of spoiling such information—see the inclusion of a Giant-Man figure in a Marvel set ahead of this summer’s Captain America: Civil War.
