 "But she's got where it counts," or so said Han Solo to Luke Skywalker and Ben (Obi-Wan) Kenobi just as they were about to board the Millennium Falcon in the very first Star Wars film. We were told that Han won the infamous ship from Lando, but now you can own it in LEGO form. And this one really does have it where it counts!
The scale version of the Corellian Engineering Corporation YT-1300 Freighter is almost three feet long, and consists of more than 5,000 pieces, complete with radar dishes, boarding ramp and quad-laser turrets. The LEGO Millenium Falcon set won't be out until October, but you can preorder now from the LEGO Store. As one of the biggest, if not the biggest, it will set you back about $500, but that includes free shipping and also comes with five minifigures including Han, Chewbacca, Obi-Wan, Luke and Princess Leia. Now in fairness, Obi-Wan and Leia were never on the ship at the same time, but we have to ask...where are the droids?

Man, kids today! They have it so easy! When I was a kid my parents were to cheap to buy me the big plastic Millenium Falcon so I had to build my own out of Legos...
