On February 19, 2005, LEGO held a Star Wars VIP Gala at their NY showroom to celebrate the debut of their Revenge of the Sith sets. Guests were sent this special LEGO invitation depicting either Luminara Unduli or Anakin Skywalker upon a simple display base sporting an engraved metal plaque. Both minifigures featured a light-up lightsaber (LULS), which lights up when the minifigure’s head is depressed. An unknown number of each of these items were produced, though some estimate that approximately 50 of each were produced.
I currently own two of the Anakin Skywalker invitations and display the second one with a Luminara Unduli LULS minifig from a 2005 set I opened. I would love to get a hold of a real Luminara Unduli version, especially if it included the original mailer and other materials that were sent along with the item.
Additions / Corrections
If you have any additional information about any of these LEGO Star Wars VIP Gala items, please leave a comment below. I would be especially interested in hearing more about the packaging for the invitation set. What was the box like? What other information was included with the set?
