I find many mistakes with lego each year, and this is for star wars only.

1. On the fixed wing of the landing craft, where it is white is supposed to be gray and where it is gray it is supposed to be white. (maybe they did not have gray slope bricks)

2.On the summer issue of 2006 and on pages with Jabba's sail barge, you could see the reflection of the bottom too.

3.On some catalogs and magazines, it says that the isd's meditation chamber is the command center.

4. Also, it shows pics from the death star, instead of isd pics.

5. The meditation chamber is only in the Executor, I believe, and not on ISDs.

6. The landing craft says that stormtroopers wearing orange cloths are sandtroopers but the ones in Mos Eisley Cantina are sandtroopers because of their backpacks. The orange cloth means squad leader, if I am correct.

7. The red guards in the magneet packs have black hands., also in the Celebration 4 vader box.

8. The old set with palpatine and vader and another shows black hands on the box, but yellow hands included, or vise versa.

9.Grievous' ship[ is supposed to have have proton bombs but I guess lightsabers double as that.

10. The scimitar doesn't have rockets.

11. The missiles on the y-wing are in the wrong plce, and same for x-wing that doesn't even have torpedoes.

12. In the isd issue of the magazine last year, it said that the death star was fired inly once, but I believe it was twicw, to blow up the planet over which it was constructed? Maybe that was the prototype.

13. Summer issue of last year's catalog, on one edition it said over 60 new items and on another version it said over 45 new items and the content was different.

If that is the case then it is EU. The only time that the Death Star fired according to me is to vaporise Alderaan. After all, Tarkin does call it a final test.

(You might be taking it all too seriously... ;-) )

A test, maybe, but the the destruction of the place where it was constructed was not noticed, it hink, and alderaan was to show the PEOPLE of how the empire could pulverize rebellions. I have more.

1. When you finish the death star 2 in lego, below the equator and below the superlaer, the last panel where it ends, it is supposed to be incomplete, according to the instructions. But the box pics and and commercial photos have it complete.

2. On the the back of the tie interceptor box, (2006) the pic with the cockpit opening has a large gray plate underneath it, which is a mistake.

3. On bounty hunter pursuit (2003), in the coruscant background, you could barely see that there are two of the same buildings.

4. On the imperial landing craft box, why is the craft dropping bombs on their own guys?

5. On the sandcrawler box, the tracks differ from the treads.

6. The republic ruiser isn't supposed to have lasers.

7. The cruiser doesn't have a skiff

8. The cruiser's escape pod is half of the salon pod, not the entire thing

Very possible, but if it isn't on screen then it isn't a "fact".

4. On the imperial landing craft box, why is the craft dropping bombs on their own guys?

Yes, I thought the same thing myself! Perhaps the Storm Troopers owe the pilot money? X-D

There are stil other G-canon stuff, and I think the pilot is just pissed because he gets lower salaries.

You spend way too much time thinking about this kind of stuff. Noboby even notices any of these things. It seems to me you are just looking for problems.

Well the prototype was made in the Maw installation...no planets there. And the DS was never stated to have fired at any planet other than alderaan :-P

As for the list, you'll find that often some minor color switches are made to be more economical. It happens in all lines

I believe in the Radio Series the DS is meant to have vapourised the planet Despayre around which it was built.

I'm not 100% sure, but I believe the official LucasFilm guide for canonicity is that the films come first, then the radio series, then written works - i.e. if there are conflicting events, whatever is in the films takes priority and so on down the line. So, if the radio series says the DS destroyed Despayre, then it did, unless the films say otherwise, which they don't.

BUT...all this is thrown into doubt anyway with the prequels - since it's made clear that Tarkin DID NOT come up with the idea for the DS as stated in the books, and it was NOT built in the Maw facility after all, but started by a bunch of insects. :-D

Dr. S.

Maybe the Geonosians started it, but the rest was finished on the Maw Facility?

The answer is that George simply changes his mind all the time. Luke and Leia were not even going to be twins orignally, and probably not even siblings, but he must have thought "Hey, that 'I am your father' thing went down well last movie, how about 'You are my sister'". (The proof for this is in the script; their ages are different.) From the novels it is virtually said that the clone wars were started by the Mandalorians, but now it seems that it was a bunch of droids. Adding combat droid to Star Wars was a bigger mistake as it confuses the original triliogy. The only canon combat droid originally was IG-88 and that was good as it highlighted that they were not used for some reason; too expensive, too dangerous, too un-reliable, it really doesn't matter. But the prequals showed how good they are and this makes no sense at all because if was so easy to make a battle droid it would have been more sensible for the Rebellian to consist of droids, not people. Alderaan had no problem with money and this would have been easier that trying to recruit and train people in secret.

I won't even start on the whole Gredo thing.

Yeah, from what I remember Lucas originally planned movies 7, 8, and 9 to be about Luke finding his mother and sister, and tracking down the Emperor to kill him. Time and money was short, so at the last minute he compressed it all into episode 6.

And no, there's no 7, 8, 9. There are no scripts for 7, 8, 9. And I swear if someone brings up supershadow I will whack them :-|

supershadow?

DS blew up Despayre when it was finished over it, the DS was relocated many times. The prototype was "finished" in MAw installation.

Is that how it's been retconned? Interesting.

Thing is, that throws up a whole load of new problems - like how come the Rebel Alliance didn't find out about the DS until just before it went operational - if it moved around so much then that means that so many more people would have been aware of it...

Dr. S.

It was moved around to avoid rebels finding out about it, not to be noticed. :-D

Yes please do that!

I find all this very interesting to read.

Well it is from the first movie (Episode 4). When introducing Han there is a scene with him being held at gunpoint by the bounty hunter Greedo who wants either the money he "owes" Jabba, his ship or his life. Han doesn't have the first, and doesn't want to give the second or third and he knows that Greedo will shoot him anyway so he keeps him talking while he readys his gun. When Greedo threatens to kill him Han gets in first.

Later, even though many feel (including me) that it is in character, George decides that it isn't, so for the Special Edition release he adds a blast from Greedo which somehow misses so Greedo shot first, and Han shot only after this. This caused much complaints so in the DVD version George changes it again so that shoot almost at the same time (with Greedo still first) and supposedly Han dodges the blast. (I can't say that I have ever noticed it but I haven't looked either!) Why George has problems with Han, a drug smuggler, killing a bounty hunter is quite beyond me.

George constantly changes his mind, and while he claims that he has a magical complete story, I simply don't believe him. Obi-wan Kenobi is a good example. In the movie he says "I haven't gone by the name Obi-wan, though, since before you were born". While this is trueish, it is only barely true. Additionally, when it is revealed that Obi-wan was in the Clone Wars Luke says "But... that was so long ago". Even though it was only 20 years before and Obi-wan looks at least 40 so it shouldn't be that remarkable. I have my own theories of what the Clone Wars was really about based on many little facts given in the movies and movie novels.

As a kid I used to read the novels of the Star Wars movies over and over again. In fact, my first novel I ever read or owned was Return of the Jedi. I probably have read the novels to Episode 4-6 twice as much as I have seen them. Possibly for this reason I was sure of what the Clone Wars would consist of; Jedi defending againt an invasion of Jedi-wanna-be dressed like Boba Fett, otherwise known as Manderlorian Warriors. My thought was that these guys for some reason (probably general evilness) wanted the Jedi gone, and decided that the best way to do this was to make an army that emulated Jedi powers via technology. (For example the jet pack gives the power of Jedi jumps, the cables give the power of force manipulation, the helmet gives the power of Jedi senses and communication...) Interestingly, probably because I read the books from an early age (about 9) the name "Clone Wars" meant nothing to me. I think I thought it was a location! Even when I learnt what the word meant to me I didn't think too much about it. It wasn't until the 90s while reading the Zahn series the concept of cloning an army was blatently pointed out to me within the Star Wars universe that it all clicked for me. For those that haven't read the Timothy Zahn books, there are two cloned Jedis in the series, one a Luke, cloned from his hand lost at Cloud City, and the other a older Jedi Master. (It is rumoured that it was going to be Obi-Wan but Lucas objected.) This then gave me the final piece in the puzzle; the "Clones" in the Clone Wars were Jedis, who replicated themselves to counteract the superior numbers that the Manderlorians had. Eventually the Jedi win, but then the Clones go mad, leaving the way open for Palpatine to strike...

But that is just my idea. I do think thought that looking for inconsistancies in Star Wars is a waste of time as on a whim from George a "fact" becomes fiction.

It is quite beyond me how a military station with 4 million crew members could remain a secret. All you would need is one of those crew members to blab. The USA had a hard enough time keeping under 100 F-117s a secret and they did that by using as much off-the-shelf components as possible. I used to serve on a Destroyer with a crew of 300 and the resouces we needed (food, fuel, spare parts, ammo) to keep active was incredible. The fact that the Death Star remained hidden until completion is beyond belief.

Wow! 8-

The New Republic did use Confederate droids like B2s and B1s and Providence-class destroyers and such.

Thgis is the first time I am sharing this error I found in the Episode 6 movie, but when Luke and Leia are talking about how Vader is Luke's father and she is his sister, and Luke asks her avout her mother, she says she was beautiful but sad. That doesn't make sense since Padme Naberrie died right after she gave birth. And she talks as if she knew her, so she wasn't viewing a hologram or anything. I have others like how the last scene at Ep.6 , Anakin force ghost was replaced with Hayden., and the emperor's hologram at Episode V replaced by Ian Mcdiarmid., and Darth Vader's eyebrow erased, and deleted scenes and additions such as sentinel-class ships and other stuff. Here is another Lego - star wars mistake

1. In many comics and videos(commercial), A-wings and B-wings are engaing an ISD with Tarkin in view. He died before the B-wing or A-wing was developed.

2. In the Golden Droid Hunt comic, Davin felth is obviously one of them and he never went to Hoth, according to my knowledge. And Hoth and Tatooine arem't close.

3. there are 2 squad leaders in the sentinel-class craft.

In Leia's hologram at Episode 4, she says kenobi served her father in the clone wars. That is almost the other way around.

It is quite beyond me how a military station with 4 million crew members could remain a secret. All you would need is one of those crew members to blab.

Not really, because we are talking about a GALAXY! The ends are hundreds of lightyears apart and some systems are not even discovered. You forget the rebellion is a small force.

The kaminoans were intrigued by the idea of cloning beings with high midi-chlorian counts, but were not given the chance., The two beings cloned you are taling about are Luuke Skywalker, Joruus C'boath, and another, Darth Vader clone., the original, Jorus C'boath, died in the outbound flight because palptine wanted it to, and by people going mad you meant the Katana fleet? The crew were attacked by a disease and went into hyperspace, and nobody knew where they were until a lot later, with Thrawn trying to find it. It is like what you thought the clone wars was because of crazy authors and he started from episode 4, leaving the prequals open to be 'vandalized'.
