Lego Star Wars video games minikit instructions

I was wondering if anyone had ever published the instructions for the minikit vehicles one builds in the LSW video games. I saw this topic started years back on a few other forums, but there were never any answers.

I'm a huge mini SW collector, so I'd love to rebuild those myself - and will have to build the database myself if there's none! ;)

Many of them are quite similar to the corresponding SW mini-models sets from 2004-ish, I believe. I don't know about real instructions, but I think in the Complete Saga edition, if you start the game and go outside the Cantina, there's a console in the yard which shows you the mini-kits you've collected. Unless I'm mistaken, there's a button you can press which 'takes apart' the mini-model and 'reassembles' it, step-by-step, which might show you what bricks you need.
Be careful, though. The early Lego video games were notorious for using impossible or nonexistent pieces.

(I think there's a similar function in LSW II, but maybe not in the first one or the Clone Wars)

The Complete Saga (which collects both games in one) has the option for the slow-motion building for all minikits, so that will not be an issue. Identifying all parts might take some time, that's all.
I agree some of the original game's minikits look the same as the early mini models, but as far as I could see, there are some differences. Those of the second game are mostly unique (and some seem quite neat!).
This said, I haven't completed the game yet (on ps3 anyhow, I did on the ps2 back in the day but god knows where that save went...) so I might be wrong on all accounts!
