“Thank the Maker! (C-3PO)” LEGO began producing the Star Wars LEGO’s in 1999. With new film additions being released in the next several years and the continuance of the Clone Wars series, LEGO Star Wars has never been busier. Before this year is even halfway over, LEGO expects to release over a dozen new Star Wars sets, not counting the dozen+ sets released in December of 2012. This is both great and terrible for LEGO Star Wars fans. This is wonderful because it means new Jedi, clone, droid, and alien minifigures as well as new and also updated space ships and snub fighters. However, enthusiasts will be disappointed by having so many sets released in such a short time. With over two dozen sets released in just over six months, it’s financially impossible to be able to afford them all. That’s why it’s important to pick the sets you like the best. Even if you can’t buy them all, you will enjoy seeing the designs and innovations of the sets. Here are the LEGO Star Wars sets of 2013, enjoy! (Thanks to the Brickipedia for the information!)
