The LEGO Star Wars Exclusive Minifigs theme includes a range of rare and limited-edition minifigures that have been released over the years as promotional items or special editions. Notable minifigures in this theme include the Gold Chrome Plated C-3PO (2007), Chrome Darth Vader (2009), White Boba Fett (2010), and Chrome Stormtrooper (2010). These minifigures are highly sought after by collectors due to their unique designs and limited availability, often being distributed through special promotions, events, or in very limited quantities.
2012 LEGO Sets
2012 was a very important year for LEGO license themes, namely, the contract with Lucasfilm was renewed to extend Star Wars sets until at least 2022. The LEGO Group also celebrated its 80th anniversary in August of that year. 2012 also marked the year for one of the largest number of new and important themes being released which included The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, Marvel Super Heroes, DC Super Heroes, Monster Fighters, Friends and LEGO Friends. With the introduction of all these new themes LEGO did discontinue a number of beloved themes in 2012 which included Alien Conquest, Atlantis, Pharaoh's Quest, Kingdoms and Harry Potter which did make a return six-years later, thankfully.
