I could buy myself a new phone for that price and I’d probably get way more utility out of it, but that’s just the sensible adult in me talking. While this set is purely aimed at Adult Collectors and the AFOL crowd, and it will sell well, I don’t ever see how I could personally justify dropping such a huge amount on a collectible. Don’t get me wrong, I love LEGO but I cannot see myself ever paying so much for a LEGO set, no matter how well designed it is. The price – US$800 or AU$1300 here in Australia is on a whole level of insane. That said, this set isn’t for me, and I suspect, isn’t for everyone. In every sense, I can’t help but feel really happy for Star Wars fans, and the fact that this is a significant upgrade over the original in every shape and form is a big deal.ĭon’t forget to check out the designer video below This is probably a dream come true for every single LEGO Star Wars fan out there, who missed out on the original and didn’t want to shell out thousands of dollars on the secondary market just to get ther hands on the Holy Grail of Star Wars sets. It’s really difficult to not be blown away by the sheer awesomeness of this set. The UCS Millennium Falcon 2.0 comes with 7 minifigures, The Force Awakens crew of old Han Solo, Chewie, Finn, BB-8 and Rey, or the Empire Strikes Back Crew of Han Solo, Princess Leia and C-3PO.Īlso included are 2 Porgs which will make their debut in The Last Jedi, and a buildable Mynock, one of those winged sucky bat things from Empire Strikes back. Speaking of which, the set also features interchangeable radar dishes, so you can opt for the classic round one, or the newer rectangular version from The Force Awakens. The set also improves on the original by adding in some interior space, so you can recreate and re-enact your favourite moments from Empire Strikes Back or The Force Awakens. The details of the set is where the UCS Millennium Falcon truly shines – the designers went all out with the greebling, packing in an insane amount of detail, texture and nuance into the design. The footprint of the set is the same, measuring over 8” (21cm) high, 33” (84cm) long and 22” (56cm) wide. It improves upon every single facet of the older version. LEGO 75192 Millennium Falcon is a substantial upgrade to its predecessor, 10179 UCS Millennium Falcon. I like Star Wars, but I wouldn’t call myself a die-hard fan, so I’m kinda not the target market for this set. So I’m going to preface this by saying that I’m not a massive, hardcore Star Wars fan. I’ll share my thoughts on the pricing in a bit, but let’s take a look at the set in closer detail. I don’t know about you but that is a LOT of money and will surely be one of the most debated things about this set. The 2017 UCS Millennium Falcon will cost US$800 / AU$1300.
