Legoland Star Wars Miniland “Death Star” Reveal

We were given the opportunity to visit LEGOLAND California on March 4th for the revealing of the newest addition to Star Wars Miniland “The Death Star”. The most feared Space station in majority of all the Star Wars films.

Before the reveal we were able to check out the other famous scenes from the six Star Wars movies, there was also a scene from the animated series “The Clone Wars”.  All the scenes were so detailed, that my oldest & I were both truly amazed.
