Millennium Falcon

This is a fabulous Lego set that my almost 12-year-old son put together. It took him about 6 hours to build, which he broke up over a few days. Once built, he has spent hours playing with it and running all over the house with his Millennium Falcon. I loved that is was a great project and nice challenge to build himself and I especially love how well it has stayed together with hours of playing! His favorite part might be the characters that came with it. There are a couple newer characters but mostly some classics! He loves Chewbacca, C-3PO and R2-D2, and they really make the playing fun. Lego makes fabulous products that inspire creativity and pretend play! We have some other Legos, but this set has quickly become one of our favorites! more less

Continued improvement is integral to successful LEGO Star Wars sets and 75257 Millennium Falcon undoubtedly accomplishes that task. This model includes much greater than detail than other designs and its proportions appear more accurate too. The integration between the mandibles and the circular hull seems particularly impressive as that connection has looked awkward in the past. more less

75257 Millennium Falcon just might be the best non-UCS Millennium Falcon that LEGO has released to date. Just like the major differences between the two UCS Falcons in 2007 and 2017, each new version of the LEGO Falcon has added clear improvements over the last. However, it's been many years since there's been a truly major improvement — certainly nothing like the huge leap in the hull design with the move away from large Aliens panels in 2004. But this new LEGO Falcon represents just such a leap. Additionally, subtle improvements to details like the texture of the berths and the areas around the maintenance access bays also make a difference. more less
