Legoland is helping George Lucas celebrate the 30th Anniversary of Star Wars with a LEGO Star Wars™ Weekend of fun for kids and their parents.

This is an opportunity for fans to come to Legoland and celebrate the saga’s anniversary with their family,” public relations representative Kelly Schwartz said. . . . Legoland’s “MiniLand” will stage a hunt for never-before-produced, special-edition metallic gold C-3PO mini figures. Only 10,000 of them have been produced, 30 of which will be given away throughout the weekend.
