LEGO in 2013: Forever Star Wars

If you were LEGO, would YOU let something like Star Wars slip away? Me neither. We've not heard anything on how the Disney acquisition of Lucas will effect individual licensors, but we are betting the answer is "Not at all for the forseeable future." Now.. when the current contracts run out...and if Disney acquires Hasbro...well..that is another story.  ...And one we'll tell later..when it happens. For now, we are going to take a look at LEGO's Star Wars 2013 lineup!
