Millennium Falcon

Description

Why the Falcon works small

Few spaceships are as easy to recognise from their outline as the Millennium Falcon. A flat disc, two forward mandibles and a cockpit tube sticking out to one side: get those right and almost anyone will know what they are looking at. That makes the ship a natural subject for tiny models. Han Solo's freighter carries the heroes through A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, and later returns in The Force Awakens and Solo.

Fifteen elements out of 24

The catalogue lists 15 distinct elements among the 24 pieces. With so little repetition, the build moves quickly from one step to the next and rarely asks you to place the same part twice. It is the sort of model that takes a few minutes and works well for younger builders, or for anyone who wants a small Star Wars piece on a desk or shelf. There is no minifigure, so the focus stays entirely on the ship.

An unexpected colour list

White, blue, black and trans-light blue are the main colours recorded for this set. On screen the Falcon is mostly pale grey with darker panels and a few red details, so a list without any grey stands out. The full parts list on this page shows exactly which elements come in which colour. Trans-light blue is the only translucent shade, and black gives contrast against the white. If you collect micro builds, it is a colour mix you will not see often.

Tracking down the parts

Micro models like this tend to end up in mixed boxes, where they quickly lose pieces. The parts list here shows each of the 15 elements with its colour and quantity, so you can rebuild the model from loose bricks or check a second-hand copy. Once your collection is saved in Bricoria, What can I build? tells you which other sets your parts already cover, which is useful if you are gathering a whole fleet of micro starships.
