The Hunk of Junk mission in LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga takes players directly into the chaotic escape from Mos Eisley Docking Bay 94. As Empire forces swarm the hangar, heroes must defend Chewbacca while repairing the iconic Millennium Falcon to make a daring escape. Navigating this level requires balancing fast-paced combat with clever environmental interactions to unlock every secret.

Mastering the Main Objective and Falcon Repairs

To clear the primary campaign phase, players must defend the ship from persistent waves of incoming Imperial Stormtroopers. As Chewbacca works on various mechanical repairs, you will need to retrieve missing parts and position heavy crane equipment around the docking bay. Completing these tasks systematically ensures that the ship becomes flight-ready while keeping enemy forces at bay.

Coordination between character classes is essential for managing the repair sequence smoothly. Using Force-sensitive characters allows you to manipulate fallen debris and repair key mechanisms like elevator lifts. Meanwhile, ranged characters can cover ground troops to prevent Chewbacca's progress from being interrupted.

Completing All Three Level Challenges

The first level challenge, Absolute Scoundrel, requires utilizing Scoundrel abilities to target environmental hazards above enemy squads. Shooting designated target points triggers structural collapses that instantly eliminate groups of troopers. This quick action provides immediate crowd control during the opening moments of the engagement.

For the Don't Get Cocky challenge, players must activate hidden automated defense turrets scattered across the lower level. Riding a GNK droid onto the designated power socket powers up these defenses to take down incoming foes automatically. To finish the Chewie, Get Us Out of Here! challenge, use Astromech terminals and grapple points to seal off reinforcement entryways.

Tracking Down Every Hidden Minikit

Collecting all five Minikits in Hunk of Junk rewards players with the Millennium Falcon (Micro) vehicle unlock. Several collectibles are accessible during the initial story run, while others require specific class abilities in Free Play mode. Exploring every hidden alcove and destroying background objects is key to discovering these hidden canisters.

One Minikit requires using a Hero terminal to open a side storage room where heavy crates can be repositioned. Another collectible is tied to powering a conveyor belt with a GNK droid to crush a container and reveal the hidden parts. Searching the upper balconies and hidden rooms ensures full completion of the mission's rewards.

Achieving True Jedi Rank and Maximum Studs

Reaching the True Jedi stud threshold of 80,000 studs is straightforward if players break every object in the hangar. Gathering multiplier studs early in the mission guarantees that you reach the target well before entering the ship's ramp. Taking time to sweep both levels of the hangar before triggering the final escape sequence is highly recommended.
