LEGO® Star Wars #2 - Luke/Han/Boba Minifig Pack

Description

A numbered series

The name tells you a lot: this is pack number two in a short run of Star Wars figure packs from 2000, when the theme was only a year old. Rather than a vehicle or a scene, these packs offered characters on their own, which suited fans who already owned the larger sets and wanted more figures to go with them. Set 3341 picks three names from the original trilogy that many collectors would put near the top of any list: Luke, Han and the bounty hunter Boba Fett.

Why these three belong together

Luke and Han start out as reluctant allies in A New Hope and become friends by the end. Boba Fett is the hunter who follows them, and in The Empire Strikes Back he takes Han, frozen in carbonite, to Jabba the Hutt. Putting the three in one pack gives you both sides of that story. The catalogue does not specify which film outfits are represented, so check the parts list and the minifigure details on this page if you need a particular version.

Pieces and colours

The 25 pieces break down into just eight distinct elements, so most parts appear several times over. The main colours are dark grey, chrome silver and trans-neon green, plus one entry with no fixed colour. The old dark grey is worth noting: it was replaced by dark bluish grey a few years later, so parts in this shade date the pack to the early era of the theme. Chrome silver is the only metallic finish, and trans-neon green provides the single translucent colour.

Checking a second-hand pack

Most copies of a pack this old now change hands loose, often mixed in with other figures. The parts list here shows each element with its colour and quantity, which makes it easy to confirm that nothing is missing. If you keep your collection in Bricoria, What can I build? will show which other sets your parts already cover. That is handy when a few early Star Wars sets are still waiting for their missing pieces.
