    I did'nt see another topic for this, so I decided to create one. Anyway I was always hoping that Kenner/Hasbro would make a much larger and improved Falcon, and they finally did, much to my delight. I got mine about a month ago for 200 euro in my local Smyths toy superstore, and I'm well pleased with it. It makes a beautiful display piece, if you have the room for it. Although its not 100% percent to scale with figures, its still a huge improvment over the old kenner 1978 mold version. Here are some great pics:








    Size comparison to the old kenner Falcon.


    Another size comparison


    One of the very best Han & Chewie's that I've seen in a long time. These also come with the new falcon.




    Whats that flashing?!

    Has anybody else got this, and what do they think of it?

      I use them for smuggling. I never thought I'd be smuggling myself.

              Nobody as really said what they think of it yet. I would love to hear what your opinions are, and what you love and hate about it, and what could be improved as well.

                Cool, thanks for sharing. I was wondering why it was like $150 when the original was $50.....Looks cool. Now they need to release a bigger ATAT!

                  The reason its $150 and 200 in europe is because its 30% larger than the old Falcon and its has loads of electronics (about 30 sounds). Its nearly twice the length of the old Kenner Falcon. If you look at the pictures that I took you'll see what I mean. It also comes with brilliant vintage style figures of Han & Chewie.

                    I hope that it sells well. I want to see a return of large scale vehicles and playsets, especially for GI Joe.

                          No Pac-Man. Drugs are bad!

                          Anyway, that is a great Falcon. I heard they made new one because the mold broke for the old one.

                                        It is indeed fantastic. I got mine in September and it was very heavy to carry out of the shop. Did you know that you can fit Han Solo, Chewie, C3P0, R2D2, Luke & Obi Wan in the smuggling compartments together as seen in A New Hope. In the old falcon you only fit maybe two figures or three at a squash in the smuggling compartments. The new falcon though is a major improvment over the old kenner version, and I'd say Hasbro might update it in the future.

                                          That is an amazing toy, I want one!

                                          I desperately want to get this, but it is expensive. It would be so much fun to build though.
