LEGO Star Wars: The Yoda Chronicles

LEGO Star Wars: The Yoda Chronicles, also known as The New Yoda Chronicles, is a seven-part animated series that debuted on Cartoon Network on May 29, 2013 and May 29, 2014 on Disney XD. It also includes an eleven-part "mini-movie" web TV series, which was released concurrently with the seven television episodes. The series was written by Michael Price, who had previously written LEGO Star Wars: The Padawan Menace and LEGO Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Out.
==Premise==
LEGO Star Wars returns in epic style with THE YODA CHRONICLES, a thrilling, funny and action-packed new LEGO Star Wars story told in three animated TV specials! Set in the "Prequel" Star Wars timeline, THE YODA CHRONICLES stars the one and only Yoda—the Jedi Master who has seen it all, done it all, and taught generations of Jedi Knights—in an all-new adventure. With the help of a fresh class of Padawans, Yoda leads the Jedi in a desperate fight to stop Darth Sidious and his minions from creating a new super-weapon that could crush the Republic and win the war for the forces of Evil.
==Development==
Lucasfilm Ltd. gave the LEGO group free rein to develop the storyline. The creative team worked to make sure everything looked consistently as if it were made with LEGO bricks and added humor to the story.LEGO Star Wars: The Visual Dictionary: Updated and Expanded
==Release==
The first three episodes were released on Cartoon Network between May 29 and November 27, 2013. The remaining four episodes were released on Disney XD under the title The New Yoda Chronicles (without the LEGO logo, since Cartoon Network owned the broadcasting rights to the name LEGO Star Wars: The Yoda Chronicles) between May 4 and November 23, 2014.
The first two episodes were released on DVD on September 11, 2013, and the final four were released on DVD on September 15, 2015. Several mini-movies have been released, which tie into the series proper: episodes 4-6 tie into "Escape from the Jedi Temple". The third episode, "Attack of the Jedi," still lacked a DVD release as of January 2016.
The first three mini-movies were released with the first three television episodes. The latter eight mini-movies tie into the remaining four episodes.
The New Yoda Chronicles episodes are available on the Disney+ streaming service, which launched on November 12, 2019. Disney+ also has an alternate version of "Clash of the Skywalkers" with the title "Duel of the Skywalkers."
