As mentioned earlier, killing Stormtroopers and destroying Star Wars-themed buildings can help you obtain Plastoids. You will cross paths with a lot of Stormtroopers if you go towards the location of the crashed Star Destroyer. You can locate it easily by following the smoke after the cutscene that brings the ship into your world. It is advisable to use a vehicle to travel to the crash site of the Star Destroyer.

Use strong ranged weapons to fight the Stormtroopers as they will have powerful guns that can be deadly if you are not prepared for the fight. Once you defeat Stormtroopers, not only will you get their weapons, but also Plastoids as drop loot.

Conversely, you can also demolish Star Wars-related buildings for a surplus amount of Plastoids. Destroying the crashed Star Destroyer will also give you Plastoids in LEGO Fortnite.
