That’s funny enough as is, but my favorite part of this is actually C-3PO in the background. But as she emerges, she’s wearing the famous Leia hairstyle from A New Hope – something she quickly realizes and changes into her hairstyle from TFA. The main focus is on General Leia Organa, who arrives on Takodana in her Resistance transport as seen in The Force Awakens. This one is actually two gags in one, and both of them are great. But this time, Palpatine watches by from his ship while his clone troopers use a fishing pole to reel in Anakin. After losing to Obi-Wan Kenobi in a duel on Mustafar and being left for dead, Anakin is helpless – and that’s when Palpatine finds him, just like in Revenge of the Sith. Not even Anakin Skywalker’s lowest moment is exempt from LEGO humor. And yes, Han shoots first in this trailer, by the way. While it doesn’t seem like they’re out necessarily to settle the debate, they do provide a bit of a humorous twist to this moment, as Han and Greedo exchange shots at each other while ducking under the table to avoid the opponent’s blasterfire. You might be familiar with the whole “Han shot first” debate, and that scene gets the LEGO treatment here. Presumably he then catches his lightsaber after drinking this. So they’re certainly not going to pass up the opportunity to use it in the game, and they show it off at an opportune time: the classic moment from Return of the Jedi, when Luke catches his lightsaber above the sarlaac pit? Yeah, this time, he catches a carton of blue milk, drinks it, and is left with a blue milk mustache.
Since then it’s become a bit of a fan favorite, and one version of this game actually comes with a Luke with blue milk minifigure for pre-orders. Luke’s blue milkīlue milk is the most well-known Star Wars drink, having first appeared in A New Hope at the Lars Homestead. As you’ll probably notice on this list, I think C-3PO gets some of the best gag moments in these games, and that’s no different in this trailer. Meanwhile, Luke holds a pair of underpants while R2-D2 plays the iconic message from Leia Organa. Here, 3PO is laying in a bathtub, complete with a shower cap and brush as he scrubs. In A New Hope, C-3PO looks forward to the oil bath, saying, “This oil bath is going to feel so good!” And he gets that oil bath, but it doesn’t look quite as good as it does in this LEGO game. I mean, yeah, I guess they are SKI speeders, after all. But as they do so, we see a Resistance trooper literally skiing behind one of the speeders, yelling “woohoo!” as he looks at Poe as he skims by, skiing along the salt flats of Crait. Keeping with The Last Jedi (which we’ve never seen in one of these games before!), we get a look at the Battle of Crait, as the Resistance ski speeders race out to battle. It’s on the one hand a bit sad, but it’s also exactly what we’ve come to expect from these LEGO games: sublte humor in the background. Instead, he’s standing by Snoke’s throne, holding his head in his hands, crying. As the two unite and turn to face the charging Praetorian guards, we get a glimpse in the background of one guard who isn’t jumping into action. This one’s a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment, especially since we’re getting a glimpse at one of the most epic Star Wars moments ever: the throne room team-up between Rey and Kylo Ren in The Last Jedi.
Here’s a breakdown of my ten favorite gags from this trailer:
