Legoland Windsor's celebration of the Star Wars film franchise was an indoor exhibition featuring Lego recreations of scenes from the movies.
There were seven main scenes, filled with moving models and special lighting and sound effects, each representing one of the first six Star Wars "Episodes", plus a scene from The Clone Wars animated series.
Each scene was set in its own themed room. Guests could use buttons to start the models moving and set off additional special effects.
In 2016, a giant model of the Death Star was added as the climatic finale to the exhibition.
Several Star Wars Miniland attractions could be found at Legoland parks around the world throughout the 2010s, but sadly after Merlin's licence agreement with Disney ran out they were all removed in late 2019/early 2020.
Windsor's Star Wars Miniland was housed in the large circular building at The Beginning
