Not exactly what we thought, bought this for our two year old because he loves Star Wars and it was really shorter than we expected

I did not tealize it was only a twenty one minute episode. Kids were disappointed it was so short but enjoyed the story.

Comical star wars cartoon that was worth watching once.

IT WAS GOOD, BUT SHOULD HAVE LOOKED AT LENGHT OF THE MOVIE BEFORE BUYING. WAY TOOOOO SHORT.

DVD was only 1 episode, for the price, i didnt think it was worth it

This is a 22 minute long episode of the Lego Star Wars animated specials that aired on Cartoon Network. This is the second of two specials, the first being the Padawan Menace. You do not have to have seen Padawan Menace to understand this special, as it stands on its own. The pattern of kid-friendly silliness and subtle in-jokes & satire for adults is present in both titles. Similar in tone to the mega-popular Lego Star Wars video games, its irreverence towards Star Wars is readily apparent, such as Darth Maul's six-bladed lightsaber, and teenage fans chasing Luke Skywalker because he’s “so dreamy and cute”, never get old. As a Star Wars fan, I watched it with my kids and we all loved it! Featuring all of your favorite characters, Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Princess Leia, Chewbacca, R2-D2, C-3PO, Darth Maul, Darth Vader and The Emperor, the jokes fly non-stop. Written by Michael Price (The Simpsons#, this is an entertaining and engaging show. There is no other content available on this DVD other than the special itself. This is a real disappointment, as Padawan Menace came with a plethora of bonus features and extras. It is also not available on Blu-ray, which is also disappointing, as the animation is very well done. But the exclusive Lego figure of Darth Vader with a Rebellion medal around his neck is a nice extra to be included. #There's a story there as to why that particular figure is included, you'll find out why in the special itself.) Lego Star Wars has proven popular enough that there is a three-part mini-series of specials subtitled The Yoda Chronicles airing on Cartoon Network through the rest of 2013. The first one already aired in May 2013, with specials two and three airing later this year. No doubt, these will eventually be released on DVD by the end of 2013/early 2014.

If you love Star Wars, love LEGO's, and especially love Star Wars LEGO's, then this DVD is for you! That being said, it is only 22 minutes long, so not nearly long enough. It also is only available on DVD, unlike LEGO Star Wars: The Padawan Menace, which was on Blu-ray and DVD. But it's very cute, and extremely enjoyable. It also brings back several original Star Wars actors (and Clone Wars cartoon voice actors), voicing their original roles: Anthony Daniels (C-3PO), Kenneth Colley (Admiral Piett), Brian Blessed (Boss Nass), Julian Glover (General Veers), Ahmed Best (Jar Jar Binks), Andrew Secombe (Watto), Tom Kane (Narrator, Yoda), and Sam Witwer (Darth Maul). This title is fairly inexpensive, and comes with a LEGO Darth Vader figure. For fans, I highly recommend it!

Bought this for my son and he was more than pleased. He really likes the lego figure that comes with the DVD too.

Couldn't be happier. My son loved it. Action and a manageable length made for a good experience.

My son ordered this DVD solely for the Darth Vader minifigure. He was so disappointed when the DVD arrived in the mail with NO minifigure. I called 2 local Best Buy stores and the customer service reps did NOTHING to help my 10 year old son, even though the picture on their website clearly shows the DVD WITH the minifigure. I will never be shopping with Best Buy again, and I will make sure to spread the word to shop elsewhere.
