The LEGO Star Wars Mini Building Set theme consists of smaller-scale sets within the broader LEGO Star Wars line. Introduced in the early 2000s, these sets focus on miniaturized versions of iconic Star Wars ships and vehicles. While they lack the size and intricacy of larger sets, they capture the essence and key features of the original designs using a minimal number of pieces. These sets offer a concise building experience, making them suitable for quick builds or as collectible items for fans of the Star Wars universe.
2004 LEGO Sets
2004 was a shakeup year at LEGO, coming off of 2003 with record losses. Some significant events include the release of the QUATRO System for very young children, and most notably the replacement of many long-standing LEGO colors including gray, dark gray, brown and violet and the introduction of some new colors like light nougat which ultimately became the skin tone for many minifigures. In 2004, The LEGO Group created a partnership with Ferrari and a number of LEGO Ferrari sets were released that year based on Ferrari’s Formula 1 racing cars. New themes released in 2004 included Maersk, Knight's Kingdom II and Ferrari under the Racers theme. LEGO discontinued the Adventurers Orient Expedition, the original Spider-Man theme, LEGO World City and Gravity Games.
