> 3 dayI guess my disappointment is my own problem, but I had expected something far more inwardly detailed than what Lego ended up creating. The base is a husk that is sometimes pockmarked with known details, and then littered with Lego junk everywhere else. Once you get it all put together, you can lift odd sections of the “roof” to reveal some of the important locations, but none of the connecting tissue exists. From a distance, this puzzle looks complete, until you find that inside the corridors are simple stickers thereby negating the need to build them. There’s a lot of hollow room inside, room that exists simply as structure, but could have been form AND function with a few more pieces. Sure, to get an accurately sized model, it’d need to be twice this size, which should tell you just how big the actual falcon would have to be. Is this good? Sure? Is it awesome? For those that didn’t put it together and just see it, yes. For the person that wants a fully fleshed out falcon, this isn’t it at all. Personally if I hadn’t been drinking tequila and thinking “this will be amazing” then I likely never would have hit purchase and I would have been better for it. Lego could have done better. But they didn’t. And that is not worth nearly a thousand dollars.

> 3 dayWaited all Black Friday week refreshing to get this on Lightning Deal only to have it sell out in less time than it took to add and buy it. Not pleased with Amazons handling of it as they either didnt put many for sale at the sale price (click bait) or fell victim to bots. Called twice and spent over a combined hour trying to get them to honor the deal (40% off) with no luck. Decided to go ahead and sell off some other sets to pay full price. If I hadnt opened a Prime Card to get a discount, Id have bought it off Lego.com to get points towards freebies and future purchases. I really appreciate how Amazon shipped it inside original Lego shipper box for added protection. Arrived in great shape. The unboxing was fun as the four inside boxes have art and movie quotes about the Falcon. The instruction manual is heavy and well-printed with lots of extras for fun reading. The build took about 20 hours ( and Id consider myself advanced). The minifigs chosen for the set are cool and appropriate. Id recommend building a display stand for them. The build itself was mostly fun as its both lego technic on the interior and shell covering for the outside and details. The detail, size, and weight are no joke. I feel this is definitely more a display piece than a playset and needs a vertical display stand in order to truly show off the detail without using too much shelf space. It can be difficult to move, so hang onto all instructions in case something falls off. I tried doing Lightailing and Briksmax, but its very difficult and in my mind not worth the headache. Overall, a great piece if you can afford it, find the time and room to build and display it, and feel satisfied not having much playability with it.

> 3 dayI had a blast putting the Falcon together. My only issues are the price of course which many complain about, also, my set was missing 1 piece with took LEGO over 2 weeks to get it to me. I only gave 3 stars for sturdiness which is fine with me. I understand a substantial build like this is would not be rock solid.

> 3 dayFor those that love Star Wars and want a challenge building something, this is it. It took me about 15+ hours to build the entire set. The instructions are very well written, but long. There are plenty of pieces that are made to come off to play with it. The set is very large, about 2 x 3. Some parts of it could have been connected better, while other parts could withstand a wrecking ball. It does have some stickers that need to be attached as you go along to give it a little spin from the normal assembly. Not only did this sets box come in its own shipping box, but that box was also in its own shipping box so the set came in pristine condition. All-in-all, I would buy this set again if I had the money and wanted more than 1 falcon. They need to make other Lego sets this large (piece and challenge-wise).

> 3 dayI mean where do you even start with this? This is an AMAZING build, I had so much fun building this and was up way too late for a lot of nights working on it. There is SO much detail throughout the entire set, it is so well thought out and the attention to every little detail is awesome. Take lots of pictures throughout the build to reference later if you need to put something back Be prepared to spend a ton of time building this, I dont think I even really know how much time I spent on it, but every minute of it was so much fun. I finished it ~13 days after I started it, but I worked on it in the morning, during breaks and at night after the kids went to bed. I highly suggest getting some trays to put the pieces into for each step, I bought (2) trays and would open the bags and put all the larger parts into one of the trays and the smaller parts into the other tray and that really sped up the process. I only started that on maybe day 3 and it was a lot smoother once I did. The other big suggestion that I have would be to look ahead a few steps in the instructions each time you are starting a new piece/section; there were a couple times you could build duplicates of pieces, but it only showed you on the last step. That didnt happen very many times, usually the first step would show you x2 and you could build the multiple pieces at the same time, but I definitely got caught by that at least once. Make sure you have a big area to build, I used a larger coffee table to build on and the couch to keep the unopened bags on. If you have small kids be careful, there are lots of small parts around during the build and it would be easy for them to get ahold of them. A lot of people asked me what was the point of all the detail on the inside of the Millennium Falcon once the top was on. Each of the panels comes off the top to expose all the details on the inside, so you can take a look at things later or leave a couple panels off if you want to. I would recommend taking pictures when you are assembling those sections of where the connecting rods go so you remember how to put it back together when you do that them off. There is definitely a certain order it needs to be done in so that all the pieces lay properly. If you are going to get a stand or case, know that all of them require you to remove if not all of the landing pads most of the landing pads, which kind of sucks, but it definitely helps with the foot print in the end if you are going to display it. Overall I highly recommend this set if you are into Star Wars and enjoy a more complicated build. I had a lot of fun building it and love having it to display in my office!

> 3 dayI ordered this exact same kit from an advertisement on face book. My grandson received a kit with literally four snap together pieces and a few light wires. He was so disappointed not that his toy was not what he had expected but that I had obviously been scammed. When he received his gift this time he teared up and said there are some people who really want this toy bad and I am fortunate enough to have it. I am so grateful for the ability to make this right for this child. I cant thank you enough.
