LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy Hints
Canisters
1 of 18: 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 18: 1) After opening the first door at the start of the level, look to your right as the rebel troops run to your left. A door will close just as you get near it.
3 of 18: Use the Dark Force with an appropriate character to open the door and claim the canister.
4 of 18: 2) In the first room that you encounter after fighting Stormtroopers, you should see several platforms folded against one of the walls, just next to the first grappling hook.
5 of 18: You can use the Force to lower these platforms, and then double-jump up the platforms to claim the canister.
6 of 18: 3) In that same room, there's a shiny metal object on the ground level (in the top-left corner).
7 of 18: Use a thermal detonator on this (as a bounty hunter) to open a hole in the floor. Jump through to get the canister, then double-jump out (switching characters if necessary).
8 of 18: 4) In the next area, there will be a door with a Bounty Hunter's camera on it. Switch to an appropriate character to enter and look straight ahead at the far wall.
9 of 18: There are two ramps, one on either side of what looks to be a dead-end hall.
10 of 18: Walk up both ramps towards the closed doors, and they will explode -- giving you the pieces you need to build a doorway on this wall. The canister is behind the door, once it is built.
11 of 18: 5) You will get this after collecting 3 boxes with grapes on them in the same general area as the previous canister.
12 of 18: 6) Look in the cargo bay, where you have to slide several batteries to open the door.
13 of 18: Use the Force to stack two crates on the raised area of that room. Jump onto the crates to get the canister.
14 of 18: 7) Use the Force on one of the small vents in the section just past where you originally found C-3P0, on the left wall.
15 of 18: 8) Back in the Bounty Hunter area where canisters 4 and 5 could be found, you could build a vehicle in the section past a forcefield that C-3P0 could lower.
