LEGO Star Wars 7956 Ewok Attack

LEGO Star Wars set 7956, “Ewok Attack”, depicts a confrontation between Ewoks and a Scout Trooper. Released in 2011, it belongs to the Star Wars theme and uses 166 pieces to build a small forest setting.

“Ewok Attack” sits within the ground based side of the LEGO Star Wars range. Rather than focusing on a starship or large vehicle, it presents a compact character scene built around the Ewoks and their clash with an Imperial trooper.

The build uses 166 pieces and provides a forest environment for the encounter.

It works well for play, since the opposing sides are immediately recognizable, and it can also serve as a display supplement in a LEGO Star Wars collection. Among sets from the same theme, it is best understood as a scene and character pack rather than a centerpiece model, useful beside larger builds or forest based displays.
