To do: Add information on the other unused cinematics. This article is messy, finish polishing it. Prerelease footage In Anakin's character folder there are some old versions of his properties file with some differences from the final version. Figure out how notable that is and how to document it here.

LEGO Star Wars: The Video Game is the LEGO game that started it all. It received a sequel (LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy), and a compilation was made (LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga). Continued popularity led to another sequel (LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars).

Unused Characters

To do: Add information from here and get renders of the models being used in-game.

Found in the lego_data/chars folder on all platforms are unused character folders for a few characters that ended up getting moved to The Complete Saga. Although some folders are there so the game can render cutscenes (babyskywalker), some folders and characters end up not being used at all. While their data is there, the triggers for them to be playable are removed. However, one can access these by renaming them to a character with a similar skeleton or weapon.

• Boga - Boga, was to be used for a scrapped level where you chase Grievous on his wheel bike with Boga in Episode III and in the cutscene for said level. The model was ditched early in development. It is low res and lacks any real detail, made up of just a group of brown bricks. There is also a model for Grievous' wheel bike, but it is unknown if it has any model data.
• Jawa - A Jawa, how surprising.
• ImperialOfficer
• Spaceman - An astronaut figure from the LEGO Launch Command theme from 1995. Most likely he would be added in as an Easter egg, but was decided against for budget and time constraints.
• AnakinsSpeeder - Anakin's Coruscant Speeder, for the Coruscant Zam Chase.
• ZamWesell - Zam Wesell was most likely planned to be in this game, but removed later in development than Boga was. She would later become available as a playable character in The Complete Saga. In this game, however, she is by far the only character with almost everything left over, albeit with very glitchy animations. However if you swap the model with young Anakin's, the model will be fixed.
• ZamsSpeeder - Zam Wesell's Starspeeder was also planned to be in this game as well, with evidence from unused cutscenes showing that the level where the player chases Zam Wessell around Coruscant was planned to be in this game as well, removed due to time constraints.

Unused Icons

In the files are unused icons for Padmé (Pilot) and Cordé from the opening of Attack of the Clones. Presumably from a cut opening from Bounty Hunter Pursuit before it was Scrapped. These are present in other platforms as well.

Unused Levels

To do: This speculation section is still from the initial copy from the base page with all platforms together. Figure out how much of this is relevant to talk about on this page when most of these cutscenes and level remnants are not present on the PS2 release.

Speculation

There are unused cutscenes that hint at 4 cut levels. 'Anakinsflight', a part of Episode I where Anakin would destroy the Droid control ship, this level was added in Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga as a bonus level. 'BountyHunterPursuit', was a level where Anakin and Obi Wan would chase Zam Wesell through Coruscant, this level was added in Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga. 'Jango' a level assumed to be where Obi Wan would fight Jango Fett's Slave I over Geonosis in Episode II but this is only speculation. And 'BogaChase' where Obi Wan would chase General Grievous on his wheel bike through Utapau on Boga. This is further evidenced in the root/levels folder where in Episode I Chapter_06 is missing, in Episode II Chapter_01 and Chapter_03 are missing, and in Episode III where Chapter_03 is missing.

Unused Cutscenes

There are some cutscenes hidden in the lego_data/cut folder (where cutscene data is stored) from earlier points in development that are not used in the game. The video below showcases all the unused cutscenes in the PC version in full as well as how they're intended to look.'ep2_jango_intro' is the only one present on PlayStation 2, and it is not known what this would have been.

Jango

The unused cutscene for the Jango level is very similar, if not identical, to the one used towards the end of the Discovery on Kamino level before you fight the Slave 1, but, unedited, it directs to a level that doesn't exist.

Droid Factory

A cutscene intended for the Droid Factory level that features a almost completely black screen with vague models that just barely appear against the background.

Unused Text

This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. Specifically: There are some other things I found while cross-checking including text crawls for cut levels...definitely document and look for more.

These are present on other platforms as well, and all the text referencing builds for other systems are still in this file on PS2.

Japanese Remnants

To do: Finish adding the main text file.

The stuff folder in the NTSC-U release contains some files for Japanese language support, despite it not being a language option in the game. These include font information, localized game text, legal information, and two text files called j_list.txt and j_list_changes.txt.
