Lego Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy

My only gripe is that the brick closeups don't have the Lego logo and as a result it feels like they're using knock off pieces.

Besides that, it's a great show to watch with my kids. They look forward to new episodes (not sure when more will drop, might be a year or more).

It's only 4 episodes, but it concludes fairly well and each episode ends on a fun cliffhanger. The first episode started slow for my kids, but I think it was good for them.

As far as product placement goes, the sets you can buy in store show up multiple times in the show, and the creative "what if" elements of each set seem to be useful for other builds.

I have previously described the release schedule of Disney projects for Star Wars, where they alternate between total failure and success. This time, it's a success. A magnificent animated series based on Star Wars. The action takes place in a galaxy far, far away, but due to certain events, everything gets turned upside down. The main character has to save the galaxy because he is the one to blame for it all. Along the way, we meet many familiar heroes such as Palpatine, Leia, Jar Jar, Luke, Han, and others.

The plot is quite good for such a cartoon; it is very easy to watch, with episodes lasting about 20 minutes flying by in a single breath. However, I found the series to be a bit too short. If it had two more episodes filled with even more references and jokes about Lego and Star Wars, it would have been better. Personally, I felt it lacked depth, but I think they did this to avoid overloading the series with fan service and possibly left room for a couple more seasons, as the foundation for continuation is excellent.

For some reason, the series was not received as warmly here as it was abroad. Perhaps it was because people were expecting a full Lego movie, but the trailer made it clear that this is more episodic. Also, the series gifted us some wonderful Lego sets featuring the Millennium Falcon, and just for that, it deserves an extra point.

In conclusion: an excellent, fun Lego cartoon based on Star Wars for one evening. It is available in good Russian voiceover, already laid out in the green store. However, it can also be watched in the original version, as Mark Hamill voiced his part there.

8/10.

This surprisingly effective little narrative is a breath of fresh air in the stuffy room of modern Star Wars. A bit like Batman, Star Wars is almost better being silly, and that is what this is. Rebuild the Galaxy is genuinely really fun, has a neat story and some smarter-than-average fandom nods dotted throughout. A relatively solid voice cast anchors the whole thing led by the actually-that-really-works brothers duo of Tony Reviolri and Gaten Matarazzo. The only detracting factor is that this is all a toy advert but then... maybe what makes this solid compared to most recent episodic efforts for the brand is that Rebuild the Galaxy realises this is mostly what Star Wars was in the first place.

Seriously, you end up caring more about a pile of plastic bricks than most of the 'characters' in the last few efforts from Star Wars TV.

Without spoiling anything:

1. Hilarious 'cameo's' from all of your favourite characters including some original cast members from all three trilogies as well as a few of the tv shows. Also keep an eye out for some non-star wars characters popping up in the background too.

2. an actual story that is both entertaining and fun.

3. a huge amount of easter eggs, not only for star wars fans but lego fans in general.

4. Darth Jar Jar is as amazing as he looks in the trailer, but one of the Jedi is even more insanely cool.

The hype is real, not just space.
