LEGO Star Wars / Episode I Sets

Episode I holds the sets from The Phantom Menace. They were part of the very first year of LEGO Star Wars in 1999, which was also the first time LEGO made a theme under licence from a film. The sets reached shops a couple of weeks ahead of the film, so builders had the podracers, the Naboo fighter and the Gungan sub before most had seen them on screen.

The battle droids, Gungans and Jar Jar Binks were all new minifigures that year, and the largest of the wave was 7171 Mos Espa Podrace. The film's ships have been redone many times since, Darth Maul's Sith Infiltrator above all, and 75258 Anakin's Podracer 20th Anniversary Edition marked twenty years of LEGO Star Wars in 2019. More recent sets turn single characters into display builds, such as a droideka and a battle droid on its STAP.
