This includes narratives and characters from LEGO Star Wars video games, television specials, or any other media where LEGO provided its own spin on the Star Wars universe. Instead of replicating canonical Star Wars moments, these sets represent the playful fusion of LEGO's creativity with Star Wars lore, introducing elements and stories exclusive to the LEGO Star Wars realm.
2013 LEGO Sets
2013 included a number of notable theme releases including the Legends of Chima, The Lone Ranger, Galaxy Squad, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Jake and the Never Land Pirates and Mickey Mouse & Friends. The flagship release was Legends of Chima with the coincided premier of The Legends of Chima TV Show on Cartoon Network. However, LEGO unfortunately did retire a number of well-loved themes such as Monster Fighters, SpongeBob SquarePants, Cars and Dino. One interesting note is that in 2013, LEGO started changing from 4-digit set numbers to 5-digit set numbers. 2013 was also the year that LEGO release the exclusive Mr. Gold in its collectable minifigures blind bags.
