Star Wars LEGO - 2001 - Year Three

Hobbies >> Star Wars >> Star Wars LEGO >> 2001 - Year Three

Definitely a quieter year with only 10 releases. This was a Classic year with 7 Classic releases and 3 Episode I released. Finally the introduction of the Stormtrooper minifig and the UCS line is kicked up a notch with the 10019 Rebel Blockade Runner.

The AT-ST was flimsy but it was an affordable set. If they added more pieces and charged another ten bucks I still would have bought this..

I never understood why LEGO would release a bust of Darth Maul. It looks neat but I wouldn't want to spend 200 bucks on a head.

I was lucky. A friend of mine picked this up half price for me. It took over 5 hours to build but it's a beautiful set. A little flimsy at times.
