Customer Reviews

He told me he'd fixed it!
At the current price of £74.99 (24% off) this still isn't cheap by any stretch of the imagination, but hey, it is the fastest heap of junk in the galaxy. Lego has never been value for money but I'm sure most children (and adults) who receive Lego in whatever guise treasure it as a toy. I know I did.

I'm sure most of these models will be bought for 'nephews' and 'my mate's son' but lets be honest, the majority of the people who will buy this, put it together, play with Princess Leia and swap the heads of Chewy and C3PO will be aged over 20, so the large number of pieces (nearly 1000) and fragile nature of the triangular plates will not be an issue.

It's much more detailed than the previous incarnation and faired better than the new x-wing, which appears to be covered in mucus.

Another well-crafted reproduction from the dependable Lego Starwars franchise: a great model penned from an amazing design. If you can afford it - buy it!

New and improved
Actually, this is only the second time Lego have released a Millennium Falcon set, and this is a totally new and redesigned version, based on the ship's appearance in The Empire Strikes Back. It has a better shape than the previous set, and a more detailed interior. Also, the first Lego Falcon was priced at £100 several years ago, so this one actually represents good value! My only word of caution would be that it seems a little complex for a nine-year-old (the suggested minimum age on the box), and I doubt it would stand up to heavy play as it's a little delicate. Probably better for the older Star Wars / Lego fan as a display piece.

Astonishing. Absolutely superb.
This set is massive. Mere photographs never do justice to the scale and detail present in every Lego set, but this one is simply incredible. It took me around 3 hours to complete (building nonstop) and the finished model, totalling 985 pieces, is a full foot wide and around 15 inches long.

There are a lot of neat details in the finished model. It's not just the boarding ramp, escape pod, cockpit, engines, decals, triangular roof plates and miniature hyperdrive that make it cool. It's how clever the whole thing works. The circular shape, for instance, is made by connecting several dozen hinge pieces that fold around the set. They fit perfectly and the finished product is very pleasing to look at.

The quality of the model itself is what I like but the minifigures are pretty cool too. Included is Han Solo (with his little Harrison Ford smile), Princess Leia, Chewy and C3PO. As some sort of a bonus you also get a little snow trooper (of the same kind that pursued the aforementioned party as they escaped Hoth). There's plenty of scope for playing with these little figures as the roof of the Falcon can be opened up to set all the minifigures in place.

This is a large set, but it is not particularly complex. A child as young as 8 would be able to assemble it on their own (though it may take a while) but what's wrong with an adult helping out? This is a toy, and toys are meant for kids. It's bulky enough that no child is likely to try testing its ability to fly. If you want a Lego model to fly around the room, there are plenty of smaller ones on offer. If you want an awesome toy for your kid, or a display piece for the kid inside you, you won't be disappointed.

Buy it.
