LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy Hints

Canisters

  • 1 of 20: Most of these canisters can be found only in Free Play.  I will indicate specifically where canisters may also be available in Story mode.
  • 2 of 20: 1) You should see this canister on the first screen, near where R2-D2 floats over to extend a bridge leading away from the X-Wing, behind a set of shiny metal bars.
  • 3 of 20: Switch to a bounty hunter to destroy those bars, then claim the canister.
  • 4 of 20: 2) After using the gun turret to get out of the next room, you'll see a bounty hunter door immediately to your left.  Open it, and find a canister here in plain sight.
  • 5 of 20: 3) You can get this after fighting Vader for the first time, on the round platform.
  • 6 of 20: 4) On the screen after the one with the round platform, you should see a canister just above you after jumping over the first fan.
  • 7 of 20: The canister's a bit out of reach, even for a double-jump, unless you can find a way to put an intermediate platform in between you and the canister.
  • 8 of 20: Use a blaster to shoot at the wall that's ahead of you (on the right side of the screen), and a platform will come down from the wall.  Jump onto that, then double-jump to get the canister.
  • 9 of 20: 5 -- Also in Story) You'll see another canister just to the right on that same screen.
  • 10 of 20: You can float to that as R2-D2.
  • 11 of 20: Have him activate the elevator that's to the right of the canister, and when the elevator is at its top, float over to the left to grab the canister.
  • 12 of 20: 6) Go back indoors on the next screen, and notice a canister in a cage in this room.
  • 13 of 20: There are several access hatches in the room, one inside the cage and one outside.  Go through the hatch on the right with a small character, and then claim the canister.
  • 14 of 20: 7 -- Also in Story) When you're fighting Vader in front of the large window -- where he's throwing objects at you -- look under the platform on the front of the screen.
  • 15 of 20: There's a canister here, but also an odd piece of floor as well.
  • 16 of 20: Double-jump and then attack to smash onto that section of floor, and the canister will be raised up to you.
  • 17 of 20: 8 -- Also in Story) This one will be in plain sight as soon as you enter the final room where you fight Vader, a bit to the left of where you enter.
  • 18 of 20: 9 -- Also in Story) Jump toward the front of the screen on the second platform in that room.  The canister is on a side platform there.
  • 19 of 20: 10) Continue along the platform for a bit in this section, and find a Stormtrooper-only door near the end.
  • 20 of 20: Open this and you'll find the last canister.
