The LEGO Star Wars Original Content theme contains sets based on content unique to LEGO's interpretations and not directly sourced from official Star Wars films or series. This includes narratives and characters from LEGO Star Wars video games, television specials, or any other media where LEGO provided its own spin on the Star Wars universe. Instead of replicating canonical Star Wars moments, these sets represent the playful fusion of LEGO's creativity with Star Wars lore, introducing elements and stories exclusive to the LEGO Star Wars realm.
2016 LEGO Sets
2016 saw some truly iconic releases with sets from Ghostbusters and the introduction of the Nexo Knights. LEGO also released the licensed, but short-lived The Angry Birds Movie theme. However, LEGO did discontinue Legends of Chima, Pirates and also the LEGO Simpsons which only did see a couple of sets. The Creator theme really shined in 2016 with the release of the Volkswagen Beetle (10252-1) and Big Ben (10253-1). The shining star that year for investors was certainly the Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters and pretty much all the Speed Champions sets which have seen growth in the triple digits.
