Since Disney purchased Lucasfilm, it reset the Star Wars canon making some content part of the Legends stories.

It’s been 15 years since Ahsoka was introduced in Star Wars: The Clone Wars and since then she’s joined the Spectres in Star Wars:...

75371: Chewbacca Star Wars Set Review

You’d be forgiven for thinking that buildable characters inspired by those featured in the Star Wars universe are a fairly new addition to the LEGO® Star Wars range.
