Lego Hilariously Reimagines 'The Force Awakens' in Trailer for New Video Game
There’s been an awakening. Thanks to Finn’s alarm clock.
Lego has unleashed the teaser for its latest Star Wars video game — and, as is the stud slingers’ wont, the clip reinterprets the original Force Awakens trailer with a trademark mix of sight gags, Easter eggs, and pure goofiness. Let’s break down the bricky goodness in a few choice GIFs. (Watch the new clip above.)
Finn comes to on Jakku, with the help of the aforementioned timepiece.
BB-8 gets taken out by a sandcastle (that looks just like a certain Hutt’s palace). Whoops.
