Lego Star Wars Sets 2010: Three New Sets for Late 2010- AT-AT and More!
Star Wars Lego is the most popular of the Lego licensed waves, both when the sets are announced an on the secondary market when sets are discontinued. In 2010 Lego has released two waves of Lego sets, spanning the prequel and original trilogies as well as the Clone Wars TV series. In late 2010 Lego release their final wave of Star Wars sets for the year and there are some sweet sets to finish off the year.
The first set of this final wave is a midi scale version of an Imperial Star Destroyer. Set 8099 is similar in scale to last year’s Millennium Falcon release, set 7778, which was too small for minifigures but too large to be called a mini set, hence the term Midi scale. This is the fourth Imperial Star Destroyer release from Lego, following on the heels of the Ultimate Collector version in 2002, the mini version in 2004 and the minifig scale model in 2006.
The Midi Scale Star Destroyer will have 423 pieces and retail for $39.99. It is small and sturdy enough to be held by young hands and flown around the room so wins points for swooshability. Now that the midi scale Millennium Falcon has another ship to interact with, Lego might see an increase in sales for this new scale.
The second release in late 2010 is another fan favourite, the At-At. Surprisingly this is Lego’s third minfig scale release of the infamous imperial walker from The Empire Strikes Back. Previous releases came in 2003 and 2007, the latter being a motorized version that could actually walk using a battery power pack. This latest version, set 8129 will feature the figures C-3PO, Hoth Rebel, Luke Skywalker (Pilot), Han Solo, two Snowtroopers, an AT-AT Driver and General Veers so is set again in the Hoth environment, not on Endor as some fans were hoping.
However, fans disappointed by the lack of Endor love will enjoy the last release for this year, a large scale Ultimate Collector Series (UCS) version of the stylish Imperial Shuttle. Set 10212 will come with over 2500 pieces and, as a major bonus, the minifigures of Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, a shuttle pilot, stormtrooper and Imperial Officer. At first impressions, it is a very impressive set that is sure to be in demand, regardless of the price point. Combining UCS sets with minifigures was certainly a hit with the UCS Millennium Falcon and it’s good to see Lego continue the trend.
Looking back on the Star Wars Lego releases of 2010 there has been a great mix of sets for different age groups and saga-era fans. The minifigures have been a mixture of awesome redesigns, welcome new characters and old faithful standbys. These last three sets are sure to please when they are released in the second half of the year and you never know, Lego may have a few more surprises up their sleeve for Star Wars fans.

To be able to understand why LEGO has been successful for so long, just look to the name. LEGO originally got its name from founder Ole Kirk Christiansen by combining the Danish words Leg Got that means play well . The LEGO set became a standard of creative play for children around the world, unlocking the creativity to build vehicles, buildings, cities and more. LEGO innovation continues to this day with product lines like DUPLO that was created in 1969 for smaller hands and still thrives. Movie tie-ins, such as LEGO Star Wars, LEGO Indiana Jones Adventures and LEGO SpongeBob are some of the most popular sets. |
