I have never paid much attention to the mini and midi scale LEGO Star Wars sets, but when reader Henry from Singapore sent me these pictures of his collection, I could not help but admire their cuteness and nice details.
Henry is a big fan of LEGO Star Wars, but due to space-constrains he is not able display the large sets. So he decided to collect the mini LEGO Star Wars sets instead.
Nice display, isn’t it? What do you think? 🙂
If you are interested, you can check out the full list of mini LEGO Star Wars sets here: LEGO SW Mini Sets. So far there are only two LEGO Star Wars midi-scale sets, you can see them here: LEGO SW Midi Sets. Most of these mini LEGO Star Wars sets are discontinued, but you can still find them on eBay and other secondary marketplaces. 😉
Great fun, I own several of these, but I never got round to completing the sets.
I still have some MISB for sale on BL.
And on having not enough space, why do you think I started collecting 2×4 bricks(c:
Maxx, it seems to me that you have enough 2×4 bricks to take over your house! 😉
Yes, my next house will be build entirely outof 2×4 LEGO bricks(c:
But seriously, I partially started downsizing my collection because of limited space.
Little did I know back then, there were so many 2×4 bricks………
Still, like the OP, it takes up less space than say a Death star.
Nice collection he has, I really like the AT-AT and the Y-wing. 🙂
Yes, those are nice! I also like the Falcon. The midi-scale allows it to have some nice details. 🙂
I also like the the mini and midi SW sets. One tremendous benefit they have is that they can be handled by children much easier. Although they do like the big sets, it is too boring and tedious for them to build, and if they fall while wooshing them around, it takes so long to rebuild them. The little sets are much more friendly for little hands.
This is a really good point, Hayato, that I haven’t even thought of! A lot of the larger SW sets are just way too complex for younglings! 🙂
That little millenium falcon is awesome. They all have a surprising amount of detail for their size.
Hi Henry, we bought my son one of the mini lego star wars set but have misplaced the instruction manual and the box it came in during our move. I’ve been searching the web for anything about the set we bought and found it in the first picture on this website, LEGO Star Wars Mini Sets #2. It’s the 3rd ship on the top row. It has a yellow square lego on it’s wing. Would you happen to know what the name of this ship is so I can find the instructions to build it for my son? Thank you.
Tanner’s Dad, the set you are referring to is the #30050 LEGO Star Wars Mini Republic Attack Shuttle. You can find the instructions here (just type in the set’s number): https://www.lego.com/en-us/service/buildinginstructions?domainredir=service.lego.com
