Episode IV covers A New Hope, the first Star Wars film from 1977, and it goes back to the first LEGO Star Wars sets of 1999, among them Luke's X-wing and landspeeder. Luke, Han and Leia had the classic yellow LEGO faces until 2004, when LEGO switched the figures of its licensed themes to flesh tones to look more like the actors.
2003 LEGO Sets
2003 brought challenges but also key innovations that shaped LEGO’s revival. Realistic skin tones were introduced for licensed themes, while yellow remained standard for original ones. Clikits, Designer, and expanded Sports lines reflected diversification efforts, and 4 Juniors replaced Jack Stone for younger builders. World City modernized the classic Town setting. Though financially turbulent, LEGO’s design experimentation and new audience focus paved the way for its recovery.
