For LEGO Star Wars fans and collectors, do you enjoy their animated TV specials? Have you noticed a trend going through the past two specials aired on Disney+ years prior? Yep, “Holiday Special” (2020) and “Terrifying Tales” (2021) was some sweet LEGO Star Wars lampoons of key annual holidays. And yes, they put the Sequel Trilogy characters front and center, but we digress. Two festive occasions later in the year have been featured in LEGO Star Wars specials. What could be next? As it turns out, we can already glimpse an upcoming LEGO Star Wars Summer Vacation Special.
Brick Fanatics says the first teaser for LEGO Star Wars Summer Vacation Special just dropped on social media. Here is the clip featured on the official Star Wars Twitter page. After some sendups to LEGO Star Wars “Holiday Special” and “Terrifying Tales,” we get to the main part. Where the Sequel Trilogy cast previously got the spotlight, the franchise representation is more even this time. Scenes teased include non-Kylo Ben Solo, old Lando Calrissian, and Palpatine and Vader. Naturally, the Emperor gets fussy about his wrinkled skin exposed to direct sunlight. Darth Vader looks totally done just by putting sunblock on his dark Master.
