With a society of both Star Wars and LEGO fanatics, it is no surprise that the 1999 launch to Star Wars Lego sets has become a popular choice in builders and collectors. With well over 300 sets hitting the market in the last 20 years, some mini figures and scene sets have become more popular than others. While several of the sets have been phased out from the earlier episodes, their loyal following and high demand have made them rare and desired. Rare Star Wars Lego minifigure people have become valuable and been put on display in various collector's homes and museums.
The Lego toys are not always designed for play or for children even though my son really loved this set when we bought it years ago. These rare sets are a collector's dream and they would cringe at the thought of them being played with or destructed. The
Star Wars Lego 7754 Home One Calamari Star Cruiser is one of the sets one serious collectors wish lists, featuring not one but six never seen (when the lego set was release that is) minifigures.

This replica is inspired by the Episode VI: Return of the Jedi scene where the Home One Rebel flagship is shown with Admiral Ackbar. With several pieces and accessories including a briefing room and a hologram, this detailed collectible is high in demand.
The minifigures were introduced to this scene, and never before introduced to the market. They include: Admiral Ackbar, Mon Monthma, Crix Madine, Mon Calamari officer, a Green Squadron Wing Pilot and the great Landro Calrissian. With the legendary limited edition hologram sticker, it is understandable why this set has become so popular and difficult to get your hands on.
What do you think makes a Star Wars Lego set collectible? Not all are really but some you see and just know that "I have to have it!"

Of course, each mini figure is unique in its own way. With the Ultimate Collector Series released recently, these larger scale models are expected to be just as rare if not rarer than most of the models in the series. Celebrate the legacy of Star Wars and Lego collectibles by investing on a set or two of rare Star Wars LEGO minifigures and boast to your friends.
