Could this be the first Blu-ray Disc that comes with a Lego Minifigure? Gosh it might just be! On September 16, LEGO Group and Lucasfilm will release LEGO Star Wars: The Padawan Menace on both Blu-ray Disc and DVD. The disc will contain a 22-minute original short film written by Michael Price (The Simpsons) and produced by Animal Logic (creators of Happy Feet). Five LEGO Star Wars shorts including “Hunt for R2D2” and “Bombad Bounty” are also included (see titles below).
Synposis:
A routine Jedi Academy field trip is turned into a rip-roaring comic adventure in LEGO Star Wars: The Padawan Menace. Tour guide Master Yoda leads a group of rambunctious Jedi Younglings through Senate chambers when he senses a disturbance in the Force. Summoned to help save the Republic, he discovers that one of the Younglings secretly boarded his ship…and has a taste for adventure! Meanwhile, C-3PO and R2-D2 are put in charge of the boisterous group and find themselves in over their heads. As the evil Sith prepare to wreak havoc, it’s up to Yoda and the Droids to ensure that their young charges aren’t torn to bricks!
