Clone Base

 

This is my clone base.  I made it myself.  Some of these figures came from the Clone Speeder-bike kit. Another came from one of my favourite books, Star Wars Lego Brickmaster.  The base has a cannon and also has a dungeon for battle-droids.  There is a computer terminal for the ark-trooper, where he can monitor his weapons and direct cannon shots.   I love it.

Chewbacca Lego Mini-figure

This is the famous Wookie Lego Mini-figure -  Chewbacca!  (minus one arm!).  His partner is Hans Solo and they have many adventures together. It is good to know that Chewbacca is beside you in a battle.  He has a bullet belt and bolt-firing bowcaster.  He comes in various sets including the Millennium Falcon set and the Death Star kit.  Everyone Loves Chewy, especially me!

Star Wars Lego Mobile Missile Platform



This is a Star Wars Lego Mobile Missile Platform from the Brickmaster kit.  It comes with a droid mini-figure. There is no storage for the gun, but it has a moving, large blaster cannon.  Its role is land to air combat.  I think it looks really great.

Lego Star Wars Speeder Bike

This is a Lego Star Wars Speeder Bike.  It comes as part of the Lego Brikmaster kit.  The wings are movable and there are two cannons at the front. The clone's gun is stored behind the seat, so he doesn't have to hold it when he drives.  There are a further two cannons on the wings, making this a great fighting machine.  The engines are at the back, four in all.

Republic Attack Shuttle

This is a Republic Attack Shuttle, a mini kit from the Lego Brickmaster book.  It has moving wings that can reverse so that it can get easily into attack mode.  There are two blasters at the front, and the cockpit can move up and down.  It took quite a while to build but it turned out brilliant. I think this ship is deadly!

Clone Trooper

This is my 5th Clone trooper.  He came with one of my favourite books: the Lego Brickmaster book.  Have you got one yet?  You have to!  Many of my other ships, walkers, tanks and speeder-bikes come from the same book.  It is amazing!  As you can see, his helmet is removable and he has a little blaster too.  He is cloned from Jango Fett.

Star Wars AT-RT Walker

This is the AT-RT walker is not from any Star Wars movie I have seen, but is invented by the people at Lego.  It's still very cool and great fun to make.  The clone comes with it, which is a bonus!  There is a cannon at the front.  The legs and feet move and there is storage for guns at the back.  There is an area at the back with an aerial.  There are levers and see-through glass panel at the front.  The clone's helmet is removable revealing a sort of strange face underneath.  I give this walker 10 out of 10 as it is one of my favourite all time mini-kits.  I love it!

Armoured Assault Tank

This is an Armoured Assault Tank .  No Lego figures come with this vehicle because it is part of the Lego Brickmaster Kit.  A bigger version of this set comes with a battle droid, a clone trooper and Yoda.  This smaller version is still fun to make and good to play with, especially for the price (says mum).  There are different types of Battle Droids; Super battle droids, Droidekas, Security droids, Pilot droids, Infantry droids and even Commander droids.  You can even get a blue Super Battle Droid or a dark grey version.
This vehicle was easy to make and great fun to play with.

Battle Droid




This Battle Droid comes with the Lego Star Wars Brickmaster set.  What is special about this kit is that it comes with a clone that can bend. (see photos).  Also, it can fit into Battle Droid carriers, cush as an MTT (2000) which is good for playing.

Anakin's Y Wing Starfighter




Here is Anakin's Y Wing Starfighter.  It comes with Anakin, Ashoka and R2D2.  R2D2 pilots the starship and Ashoka covers him from behind, in case a battle droid attacks.
 Anakin is there too, at the front.  He has more guns to shoot.  There is one gun that fires from underneath the spaceship.  It has two engines at the back, and two lightsabre holdres for Anakin and Ashoka to put there weapons while they are flying.  Sometimes they get to land on surprising places.




This isn't Anakin's only spaceship - he also has an Interceptor, but I like this the most.   This took a couple of hours to build and got my dad to help me with this one.  It was a great Christmas present.  I give it 10 out of 10 - i's a great Lego Star Wars toy.

Ashoka Lego Minifigure



This is Ashoka Tano.  Ashoka has a red star fighter which you can see below.  She comes with Anakin's 'Y-Wing' Lego set.  She is Anakin's padawan (Jedi in training) so she is not yet a Jedi Knight. She comes with her own yellow light sabre with Lego, but it is green in the movie.  Ashoka has her a droid: 7751.  She is part of the Clone Wars TV shows.  She can use the force and she fight, but not as well as the trained Jedis.  If you like Star Wars in Anakin times, then you will have great fun playing with Ashoka, because she is part of his story.

Darth Vader Lego Minifugure

Darth Vader is the Emperor's evil apprentice.  This minifigure comes with a red light sabre and a cloth cape.  You can remove his helmet which reveals his face that is really ugly and scarred.  He has a little remote on his top.  Unlike the Yoda minifigure (see my earlier blog post) Darth Vader has big, moveable legs. He comes with the Imperial Starfighter Lego set. You can place his light sabre underneath his spaceship for storage.  He also comes with the Star Destroyer Lego set, but you can buy him on his own on Ebay for about 10 Euro!

Droid Walker

 This is a Droid Walker.  I made it myself. It took only a few minutes to build once I had the idea but I played with it for hours.
It moves with it's two pointy legs that push it along.  It has a little blaster at the side and a screen so you can hear the droids speaking.
It has some square pieces that allow the droid to stick onto the walker.
It has a rotating leg that spins around (see the photos) like a windmill.  It makes it move really fast.  
The droid is one piece.  It is half a circle in size, so it looks like it is sitting in the Walker.
It was so easy to build, anyone could make it, even beginners.

Snow Trooper Army Pack

This is from the Snow Trooper Army Pack.  I made this from a kit. It came with three stormtroopers and a commander.  You can fire the lazer that you see in the picture by flicking it.  You can turn the storm trooper's seat around to face a different direction if there is a ship coming from behind, so you can fire at it.  One of the three stormtroppers has a motorbike with two lazer guns at the front and a cargo area to store guns.  Another stormtrooper can jump on the back where there is a seat for him.
You can play great games with the Snow Trooper Army Pack. It's fascinating.  It has a turning machine so the lazer gun can go up and down.  If it breaks, it is easy to repair.
I give this 5 out of 5 stars.

Destroyer Ship 2

This is my most recent creation. It has a lever that starts the ship when it is about to take off.  The computers are for the cannons, lazers and bombs.  You can tie a prisoner onto the back of the ship and the lazer cannon on the back of the ship makes sure he stays there.  It has two wings and is fragile. It has a light and a pilot controlling everything on the spaceship.
It has two bombs and a skyscraper on the bottom, which is a thing that prevents someone from tracking you.
It took me a short time to build and I spent the whole afternoon playing it with my friend.  We fired bombs at it and blew the man's head off!  You can flick the boot off and when it falls down you can pretend that it has been blown up.  It's a good toy.

Star Wars: Tatooine Adventures (DK READERS)

Yay!  I love this book.

I just got this book this morning and read it in a few minutes.  I loved it.  It's great to read a book about Anakin, Luke and Tatooine, without any help at all. Kids like to read books about other kids, so this is good book for me.  The writing is big and the sentences aren't too long.  It is full of great photos from all the movie bits about Tatooine.
I learned about Watto and how Luke lived on Tatooine too.  I liked reading about the pub where Hans met Luke.

I'd give it five out of five stars.

Yoda Lego Minifigure

This is my Yoda Lego minifigure .  You can get him in a Droid Tank Lego kit.  I got him for Christmas.  I know you can get him from Ebay sellers.. His legs don't move like other, taller minifigures. It's the same with Little Anakin, Jawas and ewoks.

Yoda has rubber ears, unlike other Lego minifigures.  This makes him unique. He comes with a green lightsaber.
Yoda is my favourite Star Wars character. He is small but he is a powerful Jedi Master.  We first meet him when he tests Anakin in Episode I: The Phantom Menace. In The Empire Strikes Back we see Yoda try to train Luke Skywalker.  He tells him to concentrate and trust the force.  This is a great Lego minifigure to have because you can play different types of games with Yoda, from Star Wars in Anakin times and in Luke times.

Destroyer Ship

I invented this destroyer ship.  I put lots of computers in it, taken from different Lego sets that I have collected.  There is an escape pod (yellow piece)  that you launch by just flicking.  It works really well.  You can flick little bullets too.  The idea came from Bat Man.  It took me less than an hour to build.  I had lots of fun playing with this toy.  I invented a Lego figure to go with it.  His name was Gun man.  Dad made some little targets for me to hit with the flicking action and that was great fun.

My Yellow Fighter - Fighter 1-16

This is the X wing fighter. I built it with Dad.  I did the cockpit and the guns, he did the engine and the nose of the spaceship.   It took about 1 hour to make.  I made a little figure to fly this craft, called Gunman.  I had lots of fun making it and more fun playing with it. 

This is a GREAT book!


This is an incredible book.  I love it.  It shows you every single Lego minifigure and Lego spaceship in the world.  Any one of any age can read this book.  It is full of great pictures and details about each Lego set. My edition of this book came with a free Luke Skywalker minifigures.  He has a medal that he was given by Princess Leia after blowing up the Death Star.   But some editions don't come with a minifigure.  I would recommend this book to everyone who really loves Star Wars Lego.  I give it five out of five stars.
