The 10 MOST OBSCURE References in LEGO Star Wars The Skywalker Saga

One of my favorite little nods is when you do the side mission where you investigate who shot first in the cantina, one of the witnesses references the special editions by mentioning how Han has a flexible neck

The level of detail and the depths into the lore the developers went into is just insane and impressive I swear

The Eddie Izzard one is absolutely deliberate. The brick that you get inside the Death Star canteen when you buy it as a capital ship is called “Cake or Death”, which is a reference to a different Eddie Izzard standup bit.

When you're on Pasaana during that festival, there's a dude you can talk to that says,
"This is one of the weirdest collections of folks I've ever seen! And I witnessed the Ewok-Dulok wars!"
Deep cut Ewoks cartoon reference!

One Clone Wars refrence I love is Mama Hutts mission to capture Sy Snootles for killing her son Ziro.

I was amazed at the Caravan of Courage reference when I found it.

My favorite obscure reference HAS to be how when you first regain control of R2-D2 after receiving the Death Star plans from Leia, you'll move forward at an angle slightly askew--the same angle that would have R2-D2 run into a wall had he continued forwards, just like in ANH

One mission is titled 'The Chewbacca Defense' which is a reference to South Park.

Additionally, Darth Plagueis can be seen on a portrait in Palpatine's office.

I got nervous when the ark was opening but then nothing bad happened.

Whatever is said about the flaws of the game, man the writing when it comes to the cartoonish characters, humor, and greater Star Wars universe are on-point. Caught a lot of references and dialogue I did not expect and was laughing at hard.

I loved the Death Star novel so the Hard Heart cantina mention got me grinning in delight. Another one I was surprised to find was in Otoh Gunga when a Gungan civilian mentions the legendary leader Boss Gallo, who was a major character in the game Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds. Played that game all the time as a kid.

A lot of these are so great. As well as the Ark of the Covenant on the Ervana, another fun , albeit far more obvious Indiana Jones reference is in the storyline for The Force Awakens; if I remember correctly, its after a "world-event" rather than a mission, so you can't replay it without starting a new save file, unfortunately; but after defeating FN-2199, a cutscene plays where he starts dramatically swinging his baton. Han casually raises his blaster, about to shoot him whilst he's showing off, a reference to Indy's brief battle with the random sword guy in Raiders of the Lost Ark. Of course, in Lego Star Wars, Poe comes and takes down FN-2199 before Han can fully reenact the scene.

What would be cool is a comic character pack with Black K, Doctor Aphra, 000 and the other murder droid and maybe Luke with a yellow lightsaber and Qira in her crimson reign outfit.

Of course Alex and Mollie are being as Biggs and Dark Rey.

On Dagobah there is a kyber brick which displays "Swing From A Hairy Vine" after you collect it and it's a reference to a star wars parody song "SEAGULLS! (Stop It Now)" by Bad Lip Reading on YouTube

I love the kyber brick puzzle in Obi-Wan’s hut titled “remember owning a droid?” And it’s inside a hut with multiple battle droids and I believe R4.

I actually caught the hard heart cantina reference while playing the game, and was like "I understood that reference."

On Ootah Gunga, there is a Gungan who tells you about Boss Gallo and his mission to unite the Gungan tribes and build the city of Ootah Gunga. This is a clear reference to the first part of the Gungan campaign in the 2001 Star Wars strategy game "Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds" where you do exactly that in the first three missions

At 0:06 under Jango Fett's name it says in Aurebesh "Donor for the clone army!" and at 4:28 under the Sovereign Protectors it says "They protec but they also attac" in reference to the meme, I thought that was really funny

This ones wet and this ones wet and this ones wet, this one is wet, this ones wet, did you dry these in a rainforest? Why... with the power of the death star do we not have a tray that is f%&@&ng dry?

God I love Eddie Izzard

The Ark is also hidden up on the balcony in Dok Ondar’s den of antiquities on Batuu. So, after the Erevana it probably ends up there.
