Look inside Issue 68 of the LEGO Star Wars magazine

The latest edition of the

magazine is now available at all good retailers, so here’s a peek at what’s inside this month’s issue.

As always, Immediate Media’s long-running title includes a vibrant mix of puzzles, comics, posters and activities to entertain young fans – perfect for parents looking for a tiny reprieve from the horrors of home-schooling.

Issue 68 focuses on cover star Darth Vader, but you won’t find

Lord in the foil-bagged freebie attached to the front. Instead, this month’s mag comes complete with a Mandalorian warrior, pulled straight from (so not, as once suspected, a brand new design).

You can take a closer look at that minifigure right here, but suffice to say it should sweeten the deal enough to warrant parting with £3.99 on your next trip to the supermarket – especially if you do have kids who can better enjoy the contents of the issue.

Next month’s issue of the

magazine arrives on shelves on March 17, and includes a free Emperor Palpatine minifigure. It’s identical to the one included in last year’s , a set that retails for the not-insignificant sum of £89.99, so represents an even more enticing prospect than this month’s mag.

It also means the title will have delivered two minifigures in a row, following last month’s buildable TIE Interceptor model. That’s a real rarity, but could signal a more permanent shift to minifigure freebies. We’ll have to wait to get our hands on Issue 69 to find out for sure.
