Lego Star Wars Hints

Canister 5

  • 1 of 7: This one is available in Story mode, if you're really determined.
  • 2 of 7: On the beach, find and Force-pull three huge carrots (one on the right, one in the middle, and one on the left) to make a canister appear above a rock on the right. Double-jump up to get it.
  • 3 of 7: This can be a pain, especially the middle carrot (which is in the area with all the boulders, just behind the front boulder). You can't use the Force when you're being fired on, and the hits just keep on coming.
  • 4 of 7: But there's a trick you can use that will give you the time you need to get that middle carrot. It turns on using your partner as a decoy.
  • 5 of 7: If you're playing two-player, have one of you (whoever's playing Chewbacca, or whoever has the most studs) stand in front and occupy the attackers while the other goes behind the rock and pulls.
  • 6 of 7: If you're playing single player, turn on two-player, and the droids will target your computerized partner, who will just stand there and take it. While they're all busy, you dart behind the rock and start pulling. When the carrot's out, drop your hapless partner and get back to business.
  • 7 of 7: If you're playing in Free Play, you can take advantage of the fact that none of the attackers will target the astromechs. Stand in the right place and switch to the astromech, then just stand there while the bad guys run past you. When you get a clear spot between the waves, quickly switch back to a Jedi and Force that carrot.
