LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy Hints
Canisters
1 of 15: As with many of the vehicle levels, most of these canisters are available in Story mode. Only those that mention specific vehicles require Free Play mode instead.
2 of 15: 1) On the very first screen, where you are shooting the cannons on the destroyers.
3 of 15: Look to the destroyer to your right as you start the level and towards the front of the screen. The canister is nestled against the ship here, on its right side. Shoot it to claim it.
4 of 15: 2, 3) On the first screen of the asteroids, there will be a symbol on a large asteroid to your left indicating a door for TIE fighters.
5 of 15: Switch your craft appropriately, and then turn into a crevice on that asteroid. Inside, you'll find several red targets inside craters, and a rollermine dispenser.
6 of 15: Switch again to the snowspeeder, and tow the mines onto each of the targets. You'll need to go slowly, or else the mines might get trapped in craters without the red targets. Once you have dropped mines on each of the two targets, they'll release a canister than you can shoot to get credit for.
7 of 15: 4) On the left side toward the exit from the first screen of asteroids. This canister will just be spinning out in the open for you to shoot.
8 of 15: 5) In an asteroid about halfway between the start of the second screen and the first wall, on the right side. This canister is also clearly visible in the open.
9 of 15: 6) Shoot the blue asteroids near the first torpedoable barrier on the second screen to find another canister.
10 of 15: 7) When you get past that torpedoable barrier, you'll be in a small area facing yet another wall of asteroids ahead of you. Before going through that, look down.
11 of 15: Fly over the "crater" in the ground in front of that wall, and you'll be in a double score zone. Destroy everything here to get your canister and be able to exit the area again.
12 of 15: 8) Through a TIE-Fighter only door near the crater for the previous canister.
13 of 15: You'll see the door to your left in a small-ish area where you need to drop torpedoes on targets on the ground. Go through that door as a TIE Fighter, then drop a torpedo on another target past that door to claim the canister.
14 of 15: 9) In a blue asteroid floating near the start of the third screen.
15 of 15: 10) Look to the right shortly after arriving on the third screen. There will be a small asteroid inside a small niche on a much larger asteroid. Shoot the smaller asteroid to find the canister. (You might miss the target if you're flying straight ahead too quickly -- you may have turn back a bit to find it even when you first get on this screen.)
