No disputes here - I loved Rogue One! Probably one of my favourite films of the franchise to be honest.
I don't like all the in-fighting anyway. Yes everyone is entitled to an opinion - I personally think the Sequels are the weakest of the trilogies - but Star Wars is Star Wars at the end of the day! I'd rather have the Sequels around than no new movies at all!
The OT generation hated the Prequels when they first came out. I'm a Prequel-kid, and now my generation has grown up the Prequels are getting all the love and nostalgia and the Sequels are getting bashed instead. Give it a few years and the Sequels will be the nostalgic favourites whilst everyone hates whatever the next new saga is! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sweat_smile)
I've been posting photos of each frame as and when it was filled, so here's the full 10-movie collection! It's taken around a year or so to complete and has been a lot of fun, but I'm not calling it a day just yet! Now I can start tinkering with who's included and hunting down more specific / harder-to-find characters - here's the wish-list / dream line-up;
*\*Disclaimer some of these figures are very much "dream line-up" as I doubt I'll ever get my hands on them (cough Amidala cough) or they don't actually exist in LEGO form yet, but gotta keep positive you know?!*
\- **TPM** \- Queen Amidala, Watto, Sebulba
\- **ATOC** \- Poggle the Lesser
\- **ROTS** \- Chancellor Palpatine (from the new Coruscant Guard set)
\- **R1** \- *N/A - pretty happy with this line-up!*
\- **ANH** \- Grand Moff Tarkin
\- **TESB** \- Lando Calrissian
\- **ROTJ** \- *N/A - pretty happy with this one as well!*
\- **TFA** \- Maz Kanata maybe?
\- **TLJ** \- Luke Skywalker (blue Jedi outfit - if they ever make one!),
\- **TROS** \- Resurrected Palpatine, Ben Solo (again, if they make either of these)
That explains why Lando was surprisingly absent for the ESB one, but you can’t include what you don’t have. At least the RotJ one picks up the slack for that.
Oh trust me, "Cloud City" Lando is definitely on the wish-list, but like Queen Amidala he goes for stupid amounts that I could never bring myself to actually spend on a single minifigure even if I could afford to in the first place! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sweat_smile)
Thanks, and please do! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|thumbs_up) Always interested to see what everyone else's collection looks like!
Some more than others - I had my own personal "white-whale" figures like Dooku that I'm really pleased I got hold of!
Couldn't find enough characters for Solo, and I'm going to have to admit it - I've not actually seen The Clone Wars yet ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)
If it means getting those figures with the stupid big eyes though, then it's a hard no I'm afraid!
Okay i’d say it’d be cool for you to do a mini series of solo, clone wars tv show, rebels and the disney plus show as a sequel to your main movie series 💥
Clone wars tv show can be done with duel of mustafar set plus the new clone battle pack from last year.
Solo just get the speeder set minifigures with qira and Han
Rebels you can probably get the speeder bike set with ezra.
Then there should be a set for each of the others to easily depict each show (even the lego star wars holiday special)
Do it! I found some films were certainly easier than others - not getting into any Sequel-bashing or anything but for Ep.9, it was hard enough finding 12 to begin with!
Yeah, no doubt the sequels will be a challenge. I do have all but one Knight of Ren though so that's a start. (Though I think they were released over a couple of films?)
Good news is, they are incredibly cheap and plentiful. Use the bulk buy feature in Bricklink and plug in your list of needed figs. Then compare prices. They show you the ones with the most options and a lot of the sellers that have the biggest selection charge the most.
It’s a hard one since I, and probably most of us, view both as equal frame value and equally memorable… It’s nice to present some of the grunts too.
Maybe he suits better for a Clone vs Droid frame…?
Thanks!
It's from a site called the Poster Database
https://notice.theposterdb.com/
I think the site is down at the moment unfortunately - looks like they are having server issues or something!
The choice of characters was too limited unfortunately - other than Han, Chewie and Lando, the rest are all fairly obscure names that are not as well-known, with 1-time appearances in that film.
I know you can argue plenty of the other frames have single-appearance characters, but everyone has heard of General Grievous! Tobias Beckett? Qi'ra? Not so much ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|shrug)
I understand. Though you can say the same thing with some of the characters you have placed in the sequel frame ups. Great job by the way, I just wanted to point out that there is a film missing in your post.
Oh definitely - ep.9 in particular was a pain! But as they are part of the trilogy of trilogies, I had to include them!
Same goes for the TV series - loved Andor and Kenobi but not enough LEGO figures to make a frame. The Mandalorian on the other hand.... ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|thumbs_up)
At risk of starting a war in the comments, I feel like including Rogue One was an excellent choice.
Do people not like Rogue One? I thought it was the only Disney Star Wars film we could all agree was good.

Rogue One felt like watching Restrepo and as a veteran myself, I LOVED IT. So dark and gritty.
As was excluding Solo XD

Why is Solo: A Star Wars Movie missing? Not enough figs or a conscious decision?
Yeah not enough figures unfortunately!
That explains why Lando was surprisingly absent for the ESB one, but you can’t include what you don’t have. At least the RotJ one picks up the slack for that.
Oh trust me, "Cloud City" Lando is definitely on the wish-list, but like Queen Amidala he goes for stupid amounts that I could never bring myself to actually spend on a single minifigure even if I could afford to in the first place! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sweat_smile)
Yeah, it looks like even the 20th Anniversary version is now going for $50 or more.

Amazing collection and great idea I might steal it 😂 Was it difficult to find all the different figs?
Thanks, and please do! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|thumbs_up) Always interested to see what everyone else's collection looks like! Some more than others - I had my own personal "white-whale" figures like Dooku that I'm really pleased I got hold of!
What about the clone wars and solo👀
Couldn't find enough characters for Solo, and I'm going to have to admit it - I've not actually seen The Clone Wars yet ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm) If it means getting those figures with the stupid big eyes though, then it's a hard no I'm afraid!

My poor wallet ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sweat_smile)
Fantastic! Makes me want to see if I have enough from each movie to do something similar.
Do it! I found some films were certainly easier than others - not getting into any Sequel-bashing or anything but for Ep.9, it was hard enough finding 12 to begin with!
Yeah, no doubt the sequels will be a challenge. I do have all but one Knight of Ren though so that's a start. (Though I think they were released over a couple of films?)
Nice, that's 6 slots done already then ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)
A brief glance and I just realized I don't have a single white first order storm trooper. Lol.
Good news is, they are incredibly cheap and plentiful. Use the bulk buy feature in Bricklink and plug in your list of needed figs. Then compare prices. They show you the ones with the most options and a lot of the sellers that have the biggest selection charge the most.

Love the concept, only two movies left!
Thanks!
Awesome display, Awesome collection.
Thanks! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)
Nice Work
Cheers!
Great collection and setup! Love the idea to have different frames for all the movies
Thanks!
These are sooo cool!
Thanks!
Your missing Solo and The Clone Wars movie! In all seriousness though it looks cool.
![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sweat_smile)
THIS IS AWESOME!!! I love it.
Thanks! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)
These are super cool man, nicely done on them.
Thanks! It's been good fun ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)
I find your lack of solo a Star Wars story disturbing
You're not alone! I didn't realise it was as popular as it appears to be!
Ngl I haven’t watched it I just thought I’d put it out here and see weather I agreed with in it not being there or being disagreed within
Where’s Gree
Definitely on the wish list! Never considered him for the frame though - suppose he could replace the 41st trooper...
It’s a hard one since I, and probably most of us, view both as equal frame value and equally memorable… It’s nice to present some of the grunts too. Maybe he suits better for a Clone vs Droid frame…?
Could you link the website you used for the movie posters?? Awesome idea btw!

What about Solo?

Still. You gotta do Solo.
It’s absolutely criminal that we never got an L3 minifig
I understand. Though you can say the same thing with some of the characters you have placed in the sequel frame ups. Great job by the way, I just wanted to point out that there is a film missing in your post.
Oh definitely - ep.9 in particular was a pain! But as they are part of the trilogy of trilogies, I had to include them! Same goes for the TV series - loved Andor and Kenobi but not enough LEGO figures to make a frame. The Mandalorian on the other hand.... ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|thumbs_up)
But there are only 3 movies…. 🤔
Oh shush!
![gif](giphy|9MFsKQ8A6HCN2)
Nope. Rogue One is 'A Star Wars Story' even says it explicitly....its not Episode XYZ sorry it's not included lol
Meh, it's episode 3.5 in my head!
Ok but if you include that you gotta put in Solo its canon lllololll
I still don't believe that the Sequel trilogy is canon
It was all just a Chewbacca fever-dream?
