Classic Star Wars

Classic Star Wars is a sub-theme of the Star Wars theme of products. It includes many of the vehicles and characters from the Star Wars Original Trilogy, which consists of Episodes IV, V and VI. The events of these episodes occur in LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy and LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga.

Characters

As the main characters in the classic trilogy, Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader are seen in many of the sets, as is the case with other main characters like Han Solo, Princess Leia, etcetera. However, Rebels, from pilots to Endor Commandos, are also very common, as are Stormtroopers. This subtheme is based on the happenings between the boarding of the Tantive IV to the Victory Celebration following the destruction of Death Star II.

All the Minifigures in this theme up through 2004 had a yellow skin tone (see Biggs Darklighter), except those depicting aliens (Chewbacca/Greedo) or dark skinned people (Lando Calrissian). In late 2004, skin colours were switched to a light nougat to make the minifigures more realistic.

Set formats

Mini

Mini sets are a cheaper and easier way to buy LEGO Star Wars sets that are reasonably accurate, yet easy to build. Most classic Trilogy mini sets are no longer sold, being now a part of the Clone Wars subtheme. Many are minikit sets that may be viewed in the LEGO Star Wars video games after collecting all of the minikit canisters.

Some released Star Wars Mini sets were also part of other Star Wars subthemes, such as Episode I, Episode II and so on.

Planets

Four series of planet sets have been released until 2013. These sets include a minifigure, planet, and microscale vehicle.

Some released planet sets were also part of Star Wars Episode I, and Episode II subthemes.

Technic

Though not very common, LEGO has released a few Technic Star Wars sets. These usually came with features like movable arms or a turning head. These sets, however, did not last to the present.

UCS

Many sets in the Classic Trilogy are Ultimate Collectors' Series sets, due to their large size or importance in the Original Trilogy. Most of these sets are display sets, and can be released as Exclusive or Hard to Find items. The most popular UCS set is the 10179 Millennium Falcon due to its status as the largest LEGO Star Wars set released, containing over 5,000 pieces. Unlike most Ultimate Collectors' Series sets, this set includes minifigures, explaining its popularity.
