10179: Ultimate Collector’s Millennium Falcon™

A very cool set indeed, though I am another person stuck in my dark ages due to bley so probably won’t get one either.

I do have a couple of questions about it though...

1. Is the landing gear retractable?

2. Is the whole interior detailed and accessable, or only the cockpit?

3. Any escape pods, missles or other action details included?

4. How many sets will be in the first edition run?

Thanks, and great set! Wish you would add the old greys back to the pallate in addition to the new so I could easily get out of my dark ages with this set...

-Matt :)

Along with everyone else I second this. It is an awesome set but some part of me says that I wouldn’t buy it due to the new grey. If I do buy this it would be treated like a stand-alone kit -- not even Lego -- just a model.

The big question though is this: Would you ever WANT to break this baby down. I cannot imagine a reason why I ever would (other than lack of space).

I agree -- that is why it would be great as a standalone model!
