"The idea was simple: Jar Jar is Evil. The delightfully wacky Gungan was never meant to be comic relief, but rather the true villain of the prequel trilogy. According to the theory, George Lucas had originally planned to reveal Jar Jar as the saga's ultimate puppet master, only to abandon the twist after audiences reacted poorly to the character following Episode I: The Phantom Menace."
"The Dark Falcon exists in a twisted mirror version of the Star Wars universe, where heroes and villains have swapped moral alignments. The iconic Millennium Falcon design is reimagined in sleek jet black with striking red accents, immediately evoking Sith aesthetics rather than Rebel scrappiness. That theme extends to the minifigures as well, each offering a role reversal that ranges from clever to downright absurd."
A popular fan theory proposed that Jar Jar Binks was secretly the prequel trilogy's true villain, envisioned as a Sith-like puppet master revealed after Episode I. LEGO released The Dark Falcon set that imagines a mirrored Star Wars where heroes and villains swap moral alignments. The set recolors the Millennium Falcon in jet black with red accents and includes role-reversed minifigures such as a Sith-like Darth Jar Jar and a dark-side Rey, each wielding double-bladed red lightsabers. Amazon discounted the set by 17%, lowering the price from $180 to $148 and creating a $32 savings.
