WATCH: Lego celebrates 25 years of Star Wars goodness with adorable trailer

April 27th, 2024 by Marc Comments

Hard as it is to believe, it’s 25 years since the almost perfect marriage of Star Wars and Lego and Legi have just put out a fun little trailer celebrating the union and the entire franchise.

I still remember the hype around Star Wars Lego sets and my first purchase from the range was two Speeder Bikes and they’re still on my shell to this day.

Since then, not only have we had wonderful sets but we’ve got animated series, movies and games, so it’s true to say that Star Wars and Lego are now symbiotic.

The new trailer, below, features the prequels, the original trilogy, the sequels as well as all the recent Disney shows and animated series and even the Fallen Jedi Order games, so it’s a celebration of the whole saga.

Check out the fun trailer here:

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
