LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy Hints
Can you give me some tips for the Character Bonus (Mos Eisley)?
1 of 5: First, you may want to read the general hints for character bonus levels, if you haven't already played one of these. The rest of the hints that follow here will give you one way that I was able to play through this bonus level fairly consistently.
2 of 5: There will be a shiny metal cylinder in the room where you first start. Switch to a bounty hunter character like Boba Fett and throw a thermal detonator at it. Press the "use" button again once the detonator sticks on the object to make it explode even faster, and then get all of the studs that come out as a result. Shoot enough of the enemies to clear things out a bit. Also shoot some of the trash cans along the wall, pick up the studs that are in easy reach, then move on. You don't need to completely clear the room -- just get any high-value piles of studs that you happen to see, and try not to have too many Stormtroopers chasing you.
3 of 5: If you go down from where you started, you may see a locked door with a control panel for C-3P0 to the right, but I didn't think that it was worth the time to switch characters and unlock the door. Instead, I just continued all the way down and then turn to the left, where you'll find another metal object in the center of the room. Repeat the process of detonating the metal object, and shooting a few of the trash cans and Stormtroopers.
4 of 5: You should now be ready to head up one room, where you can repeat the same general process.
5 of 5: By this time, all of the destructible objects in the first room should have respawned, so you can go back to the start of the level and repeat the process.
