> 3 dayI am having fun with this build and I really hate to give it anything less than a perfect score. However, the engineering here is a bit dubious, especially given the cost. The model is very heavy and some of the attachments are quite weak. Not to mention, there is no obvious support point for moving it from surface to surface so external details tend to fall off. I had to move it from one table to another and wound up losing pieces and having to partially disassemble it in order to put it right. Definitely worth a buy but ideally, youd assemble it in place and never touch it again. I could also have done without the figurines but I just gave them to my kid.

15-11-2024I got mine 4/3 and started in, only a few days off here and there. I have completed to date (4/26) 6 of the 17 bag sets. The table is 36x36 inches. The instruction book alone weighs 6lbs

> 3 dayMy boyfriend is a Star Wars fan and saw Amazon selling this when it had just come back in stock. It came in a very large box so be prepared for that. None of the pieces were missing and it all assembled together nicely. He’s still very excited about it to this day and raves to his friends and family about it. If you can get it for a good price when it’s in stock, I highly recommend!

> 3 dayAs a huge Star Wars fan, I felt compelled to get this expensive set as opposed to the recent, $150 Millenium Falcon. The set is indeed amazing, great for a collection piece, lots of details. Some things I wish I Knew before buying it 1) Definitely for display, not really for play. Why? Bc its huge, it weights a lot, and bc of the size, it is not very sturdy. Other lego ships I feel like they are extremely sturdy (Slave 4, multiple other smllaer ones), but the Millennium falcon is not very sturdy. The majority of the top flaps come off actually so you can see some of the inside. However, bc they come off, it makes the set less sturdy 2) be extremely careful when you are assembling, as it is almost impossible to disassemble and go back. Bc I did not realize that it wasnt very sturdy, I left my set on the bed, it toppled, and I had to rebuild parts of it. Not a pleasant experience. Assemble carefully 3) treat it with care. Again, bc its huge and the top flaps come off, not very sturdy. This is the set to make people wonder, but not really meant to be moved around a lot.

> 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 dayIt was a fun assembly over several days, and the final result looks great. Tons of greebling. Most of the build techniques were not particularly mind blowing, though there were some interesting techniques used to support its massive size. Overall, an improvement over the previous version. I disliked how the top and bottom surfaces mostly just lay on (or hang from) the frame of the assembly. The arent well tied together, so the rear part of the ship looks unfinished. But ultimately, its too big. The idea of a 7500 piece Lego set sounds amazing, but the sheer size takes away a lot. It took up my whole coffee table hanging over the sides. I couldnt find any kind of shelf or side table to put it on. If you wanted to hang it, or even put it at an angle, youd have to glue it together. I disassembled mine, put it back in its cavernous box and will eventually sell it. If you are a die-hard Star Wars and Lego fan, and are willing to pay the Disney tax, it might be for you. Be prepared to set aside a room in your house. For other Lego fans, there are lots of big 2000-4000 piece sets I would recommend instead. Get two or four of those for the cost of the UCS Falcon.

> 3 dayUpdate: FINALLY built this set and it is an AMAZING build! Some notes about how this is packaged. if you purchase this set pay close attention to the tape that seals the box. One side is red and the other green to note open on the green taped side. This puts the manual at the top of the box so it is easily lifted out. Open the box with that side up to prevent the manual from falling out and possibly damaging pages. One the manual is removed, four boxes are located inside with each containing 1/4 of the Millennium Falcon pictured when the boxes are together. One each box is a quote from STAR WARS about the Falcon. Each of the four boxes contains sets of bags. Surprisingly the bags arent in order by box. There are 17 bags for the set. The Lego 1989 Batmobile has 24 bags with less than half the pieces of the Falcon. There are multiple bags for each number so there could be 4 to 5 bags labeled as bag 1. So MANY more bags than just 17 technically. They at least kept all the same numbered bags in the same box so you will find all of bag 1 in a single box and not some in one box and the remainder in others. You will find like bag 1 in one box but bag 2 in another. There are also some unmarked bags for some of the larger and higher count pieces. The first two bags build the frame. Bags 3-9 build out the internal components of the ship and the outside outline of the ship. The hull of the ship top and underneath is assembled in in sections and independent of the frame so you can set aside the large frame as the hull is assembled and installed in sections until the end of the build. The manual as well as videos on the Lego site show how to carry/relocate the set. Caution should be exercised in carrying it or the integrity of the build can be affected or parts can crumble away. Top hull simply lay on in sections are have one technic piece that fits into another technic piece in the frame. The detail looks amazing. it is a display piece and it not for play as some Lego can be. There are some MOC instructions or Lego stands are available to display this beast on its side but the landing feet typically mist be removed to do so. There are also plexiglass of plastic stands out there are well. it certainly will take up less space displaying on its side but if there is room and in my opinion it looks great in landed position. Its not the biggest Lego in piece count anymore since the Coliseum was released but it does still seem to hold the record for the most expensive set and may also occupy more space than the Coliseum. I have not purchased the USC Star Destroyer but think the Falcon is a much better set because ti does have internal details. The Star Destroyer is $100 less with a much higher price per piece. More than likely the higher per piece is due to the number large pieces involved. Theres way more detail to the Falcon than Star Destroyer so the Falcon has a higher recommendation in my opinion. If you youre an avid Lego fan and dont mind the price, its recommended to pick this up while its still available and at regular pricing (at least directly from Lego) before it retires. Original: I have to admit, it hasnt been built yet. Currently it is saved either as a collectible or the ultimate build when the time is right but the set is amazingly huge. The box is approximately 25-30lbs. up until the Lego Colosseum was released, it was the largest Lego set by piece count. It may still hold the record as the most expensive set released to date and possibly the largest in size/diameter. That may take a little more measuring to ensure thats the case but over 7500 pieces is amazing. It comes in a large square box with three smaller boxes with printed images inside. Surprisingly it has only 19 bags for this many pieces. The Lego 1989 Batmobile has approximately 3300 pieces and has 24 bags. Instructions for handling this beast are given. There are only certain ways to pick it up and move it around so its not designed to be a play set. Some MOC creators design stands to display it on its side for better viewing and to take up less display space. Thats an option if you want to take this set on but have limited space to display. Picked this up at normal pricing as many sellers are now overpricing this set that is still available from Lego and has not retired yet.
