Episode V covers The Empire Strikes Back, and the Battle of Hoth is one of the most built battles in LEGO Star Wars. The snowspeeder was in the first wave of 1999, and the AT-AT has had a new version every few years since 2003, including 10178 Motorised Walking AT-AT in 2007, which really walks. Echo Base, the wampa cave and the medical bay where Luke recovers have all had sets too.
2012 LEGO Sets
2012 was a landmark year highlighted by LEGO’s 80th anniversary and major licensed expansions. LEGO The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit joined the lineup alongside Marvel and DC Super Heroes, establishing enduring partnerships with both comic universes. LEGO Friends debuted, introducing mini-doll figures and Heartlake City, becoming one of LEGO’s most successful modern themes. Other launches included Monster Fighters, Disney Princess, and Dino. Alien Conquest, Atlantis, Pharaoh’s Quest, Kingdoms, and Harry Potter retired, though Harry Potter would later return in 2018.
