Posted By Mike on July 23, 2011

Following last evening's airing of LEGO Star Wars: The Padawan Menace, we have word of the special's September 16th Blu-ray and DVD release along with news of an upcoming tie-in book from Scholastic. Amazon.com lists the book with a January 1, 2012 release date but January 1st is a Sunday. Look for that date to get revised as we draw closer to the end of the year. Amazon specs are listed below and our own Jovial Jay was nice enough to provide an image of the cover.

SYNOPSIS:
A routine Jedi Academy field trip is turned into a rip-roaring comic adventure in LEGO Star Wars: The Padawan Menace. Tour guide Master Yoda leads a group of rambunctious Jedi Younglings through Senate chambers when he senses a disturbance in the Force. Summoned to help save the Republic, he discovers that one of the Younglings secretly boarded his ship...and has a taste for adventure! Meanwhile, C-3PO and R2-D2 are put in charge of the boisterous group and find themselves in over their heads. As the evil Sith prepare to wreak havoc, it's up to Yoda and the Droids to ensure that their young charges aren't torn to bricks!
