LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy Hints

How do I get up to the canister to the left?

  • 1 of 6: Start at the folded-up elevator that's several platforms to the right of the canister itself.
  • 2 of 6: Destroy some crates below the elevator, at ground level, to get the pieces to build a rotating lever.  Build and then turn the lever, and you'll lower the elevator above.  You can then use a grapple to get up there.
  • 3 of 6: Now, you still need to find a way to raise the elevator.
  • 4 of 6: The rock that's the counterweight is to the right -- just use the Force on it, and the elevator will rise briefly.
  • 5 of 6: Jump across to the left while you still can, and you'll get to another elevator with a counterweight.
  • 6 of 6: Use the Force to raise the elevator again, and switch quickly to R2-D2 and float over to the next platform.  From there, one more float will take you over to the platform with the canister.
