LEGO has released a short video celebrating 25 years of the LEGO Star Wars theme and it looks like they have teased some new minifigures that we could be getting later this year. At the end of the video, there’s a very quick photo op of all of the Star Wars minifigures that LEGO has made so far but there are also some new ones in the picture as well including Ahsoka’s Ezra Bridger, Cal Kestis from the Star Wars Jedi game series, Nien Numb, and Young Leia from the Obi-Wan Kenobi series. The characters have been rumored to be in various sets later this year. The post LEGO Star Wars 25th Anniversary Video Teases Upcoming Minifigures appeared first on The Brick Fan.
