LEGO Star Wars: The Freemaker Adventures Details Revealed

February 11, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Today StarWars.com has given details on the all-new animated television series that will be airing this summer on Disney XD called LEGO Star Wars: The Freemaker Adventures. The show will be similar to previous LEGO TV shows which will include humor and it will be set between Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back and Episode VI: Return of the Jedi. As we learned at the toy fairs from a few weeks ago, there will be two LEGO sets that will be based on the show with the Eclipse Fighter (75145) – $29.99 and Star Scavenger (75147) – $49.99. Check out the details of The Freemaker Adventures below.

Told in the whimsically-charged style that audiences have come to expect from LEGO Star Wars entertainment, the series stars the Freemakers, a family of scavengers who build and sell starships from the scoured debris of space battles strewn throughout the galaxy. When their youngest discovers a natural connection with the Force through an ancient artifact — the Kyber Saber — his world is turned upside down, and he and his family are thrown into an epic struggle against the Empire to restore peace and freedom to the galaxy. Throughout their adventures, the Freemakers explore new worlds, meet new and familiar characters, and learn the true value of what it means to be a family.

“We are very excited to launch for the first time a TV series with Disney XD,” said Jill Wilfert, vice president, licensing & entertainment at the LEGO Group. “The creative team behind The Freemaker

LEGO Star Wars Encounter on Jakku (75148) Set Shown in DK Book Listing

LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens DK Level 2 Reader

A few weeks ago, we got details of the summer 2016 wave of LEGO Star Wars sets from the London Toy Fair but images weren’t allowed for the sets for either London or Nuremberg. However there’s an image of what appears to be part of the Encounter on Jakku (75148) set which comes from an Amazon listing for the DK LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens Level 2 Reader. The image shows some of the Niima Outpost along with a clear shot of the Unkar Plutt, Rey, and BB-8 minifigures. The set also includes Teedo and a brick-built Luggabeast that is not shown in the preview images of the book. I’m not sure if the image will be taken down or not but check it out below while you can.

Thanks to Emily V. for emailing this in earlier today.
