Important information

You should look for the secrets hidden in this mission while playing in the free roam mode, after unlocking a wide array of different playable characters. Only a few of the following collectibles can be acquired during the completion of the chapter (during the story mode).

A thing worth noting is the fact that you need a character capable of swimming to collect the #4 minikit. You won't unlock any character capable of the feat even if you complete the whole story mode. One of the solutions to this problem is completing the Poe to the Rescue side mission. Completing it will unlock a character named Admiral Ackbar (above screenshot) as a playable character - swimming is one of his unique abilities.

Aside from secrets you can also try to acquire the True Jedi title. This title is given to the player for collecting at least 80,000 studs during The Battle of Endor mission.

Minikit 1/10

Special requirements: none

Location and unlocking method: the minikit can be acquired at the beginning of the mission (both during the story mode and free roam), soon after you defeat the first group of stormtroopers. It can be found on the ledge, shown on the above screenshot. You can get there by using the multibuild bricks or (which is faster) with a character capable of double jumping (like, for instance, Rey).

Red LEGO brick

Reward for collecting the brick: attracting nearby studs (Stud Magnet)

Special requirements: a character capable of going through small hatches and climbing (like, for instance, Wicket).

Location and unlocking method: the Red LEGO brick can be acquired during the story mode, as well as in free roam. You must reach the tree where you unlock Wicket as a playable character. Select the said character and reach the upper balcony located on the tree. Push the cage located on the balcony, causing it to crash on the ground. Get back down, approach the multibuild bricks and construct a climbing wall on the left side.

Use the climbing wall you've just constructed to reach a small route. Circle the tree around - the red LEGO brick is position shown on the above screenshot.

Minikit 2/10

Special requirements: a character capable of using Force (like Luke Skywalker or Darth Vader)

Location and unlocking method: you can find and collect this minikit after the first blaster battle. An interactive acorn can be seen on the above screenshot. Use either the light or the dark side of the force on it.

Minikit 3/10

Special requirements: none

Location and unlocking method: the minikit can be acquired either in the story mode, or during the free roam. The chance to collect it will appear after destroying one of the AT-ST walkers with a wooden log - this is shown on the above screenshot. Approach the multibuild bricks and construct a small lift on the left side. Stand on top of it with one character and wait for the other one to set it in motion.

Minikit 4/10

Special requirements: a character capable of swimming (like Admiral Ackbar).

Location and unlocking method: you can look for this minikit soon after collecting the third one described above. Construct an elevator on the right side and reach a small water reservoir marked on the above screenshot. Use a character capable of swimming (like Admiral Ackbar) and jump into it.

There will be interactive blocks thrown from the water reservoir. Use them to construct a small bomb on the left side. Afterwards, use the passage through the tree that the explosion unlocked access to. You will reach a small village. You must destroy objects in the area and construct instruments from the bouncing blocks. After you've constructed three of them, a short cut-scene will initiate. Afterwards, construct the minikit from the interactive elements.

Minikit 5/10

Special requirements: AT-ST or a character capable of destroying golden objects (like a stormtrooper equipped with a flamethrower)

Location and unlocking method: the minikit can be acquired during both the story mode and in the free roam mode. You will have a chance to acquire it during the final phase of the march on board of the AT-ST walker. Don't leave the vehicle after reaching the final part of the march. Instead, locate three groups of golden rocks. Two of them should be easy to notice (above screenshot).

The third group of rocks is well hidden - the place can be seen on the above screenshot. Destroy all three groups of rocks and you will automatically receive the minikit.

Note - if the AT-ST is destroyed before you can reach this place, you can destroy the golden rocks with, for instance, a stormtrooper equipped with a flamethrower (Flametrooper).

Minikit 6/10

Special requirements: a character capable of issuing orders (like Leia)

Location and unlocking method: the minikit can be acquired during both the story mode and in the free roam mode. It can be acquired at the same place where you've collected the last, fifth one. Leave the AT-ST walker and look for a group of pilots. You must interact with them with a character capable of issuing orders - like Leia. Go a little to the right, grab onto one of the four handles and destroy the chest with the help of your subordinates.

Minikit 7/10

Special requirements: a character capable of destroying silver objects (like Chewbacca), a character capable of using sockets (like BB-8).

Location and unlocking method: you can acquire this minikit during the encounter with Emperor Palpatine. Ignore the enemy and focus on acquiring the secret. There's a silver object located on the right side of the screen (shown on the above screenshot). You must destroy it with a specific character, like Chewbacca (by using his thermal detonators).

After destroying the silver object you must start construct a new one - a socket. You must place, for instance, BB-8 there. This will start a mini-game on a separate screen. The purpose of this mini-game is to move the ship up and down to avoid red obstacles. Don't worry if a number of attempts will result in a failure - the game allows you to make a few mistakes before the spaceship is destroyed. Additionally, the course of the flight is always the same - you can easily remember it. The minikit is awarded to the player for completing this mini-game.

Minikit 8/10

Special requirements: a character capable of using Force (like Luke Skywalker or Darth Vader), a character capable of using sockets (like BB-8)

Location and unlocking method: this minikit can be acquired after advancing to the second phase of the Emperor Palpatine boss fight, after the main characters are pushed by the Emperor to a new arena. Focus on the objects located in the upper left corner of the arena, the one marked on the above screenshot. Use the force on the nearby generator and then on the marked object.

A small hatch will be revealed - you can use it with a character like BB-8. Go through it and head to the right to reach the location of the secret.

Minikit 9/10

Special requirements: none

Location and unlocking method: the minikit can be acquired during both the story mode and in the free roam mode. It's given to the player as a reward for destroying five turrets during the flight after defeating Emperor Palpatine. Destroy all of the stationary objects you encounter during the flight. There are more than fire turrets in the tunnel - don't worry if you miss some of them (you can' turn your ship around to go back to them).

Minikit 10/10

Special requirements: none

Location and unlocking method: the minikit can be acquired during both the story mode and in the free roam mode, after advancing to the main part of the mission associated with destroying the core of the Death Star. Ignore the main target and start flying below the roof of the huge room with the core. You must destroy three coils located below the roof - one of them can be found on the above screenshot.
