BrickWars Sets Description Lego Star Wars 8038 The Battle of Endorwas the most important battle in the Galactic Civil War, between the Rebel Alliance and the Galactic Empire. It signifies the decline of the Empire with the death of Emperor Palpatine and the destruction of the second Death Star. The bettle took place both in the space above Endor and on the planet itself. In order to destroy the Death Star, the shields had to be deactivated first. This was the job of the invasion force on the planet, to destroy the shield generator. They were able to do so with the assistance of the Endor natives, the Ewoks. This allowed Lando Calrissian, piloting the Millenium Falcon, and Wedge Antilles to enter the Death Star and destroy the main reactor.
The Lego 8038 The Battle of Endor contains 887 pieces and includes 12 minifigures.

Posted December 26, 2010 by Callum Coghlan, United Kingdom In my opinion, this is one of the best LEGO Star Wars sets of all time! The Battle of Endor comes with so many varied parts, minifigures and accessories and you can really recreate that epic battle on Endor in Return of the Jedi.The glider looks really good and it is bigger than I thought it would be. It is a little flimsy and falls over quite easily on its stand. The two speeders are nothing special, but they can build up your speeder collection and you can recreate the speeder-chase on Endor. One of the best features of this set is the catapult. The flick-fire missiles which are very common in Star Wars sets are pathetic compared to this. Once, I was able to fling the Lego "rock" seven metres! It is quite accurate as well and is made up of rare pieces. The spear and the bow on either side are nice additions.The AT-ST is easily the worst thing included. It isn't flimsy as such, but if you slightly brush against it, the thin legs can't support it and it just topples over. Also, the "chicken legs" feature only works if you are holding the AT-ST above the ground. If in is on a table or on a floor, the legs won't work.The actual bunker, the main part of this set, is excellent. The feature by which you can "destroy" the bunker works really well and the Lego Group deserve lots of praise for designing this so well. The door feature is also really good. In the interior, the computer elements look really detailed and the cannisters and revolving chairs are nice little additions which make the bunker seem even more real.Finally, the minifigures are just sublime. R2-D2 and Chewbacca are the only average minifigures in this set - the others are all rare or exclusive. Han Solo is his Endor gear is exclusive to this set and his legs and torso look really great, especially the intricate belt detail. Leia in her Endor clothing is another exclusive - her torso is really detailed. The Rebel Commandos are just fantastic. The faces are varied and I have never seen such detail on a torso in my whole LEGO collection! The Ewoks are brilliant and I like the fact that LEGO made each one look different. The Biker Scouts haven't been seen for almost a decade, if not more, and I have waited for ages to get some of these! The Death-Star Trooper is only available in The Death Star, which is very expensive, so this is a cheaper way of getting him. He is great! The only downside is that C-3PO isn't included.The set also comes with many pistols and also rifles, so if you need any spares, this is a good set to get them. The piece count of 890 makes this set very good value price-wise.ROUND-UP

Posted June 5, 2009 by LEGOCRAZY, United States The Battle Of Endor,set 8038,is a great way to introduce rare minifigures in new sets!I also like the biker scout troopers and jungle rebel troopers.But the thing I don't like about the set is,were there really any jungle rebel troopers in Star Wars esp. 1,2,3,4,5,6?I give this set rating 10 out of 10.
