As usual, Lego has done a great job on this figure. Greedo has not been seen in a minifigure form since the original cantina set which makes sense seeing as this is the only scene we ever meet the bounty hunter. Their torso is very subtly printed but otherwise the figures are very plain in black torso and gray legs aside from the very nicely moulded heads.Įven with these one of a kind minifigures, the star of the show is still Greedo. ![]() The Bith musicians on the other hand are the first ever representation of this famous band. This new version has added leg printing to better represent his long robes. Obi Wan of course has been released in numerous similar versions before. However, this is a good thing as these have always looked excellent. The ‘sand-trooper’ is very similar to the previous versions released with some dirt and sand printed all over the usual stormtrooper suit and a fabric shoulder guard. ![]() The Han Solo minifigure is the same as in the Microfighters series Millennium Falcon and the Luke Skywalker is the same as in the 2014 UCS Sandcrawler (75059) set, but all the other figures are unique to the set. We still get the same extras of a Stormtrooper on a dewback mount and Luke’s landspeeder, but the cantina itself now also has the bar area, the sliding door entrance area and a second booth for the band. However, that set only had 193 pieces and therefore did not contain much more than the booth for Han and Greedo to sit in to set the scene.įor 2014, the piece count has been more than tripled. No wonder then that the scene is so loved and Lego fans have been eager to get their hands in a good version to settle once and for all who shot first! The Mos Eisley Cantina has been released before by Lego in set 4501 in 2004. Somehow the “Cantina Band” song playing in the background to these scenes has become as memorable as the main themes of Star Wars. Then there is that music by the Bith band. Of course, here we also get the see the infamous introduction to Han Solo, when he sits down for a conversation with Greedo who ends up being shot in either cold blood or in self defence depending on the version you are watching. ![]() Here we get to see the force being meaningfully used and explained by Obi Wan Kenobi for the first time. The scenes of Luke Skywalker experiencing the Mos Eisley Spaceport are where the viewers are introduced to the wider world of Star Wars. The Mos Eisley Cantina has for a long time been one of the most requested Lego Star Wars sets among the fans. Games LEGO Star Wars: Mos Eisley Cantina – 75052 Review
