I have this set from my uncle and am currently working on re-finding all of the pieces. I personally think it looks good for its time

[@TeamBelmont91]

What about comparing *_every_* Lego Millenium Falcon set to eachother in one video? Or, at least, every Millenium Falcon set you own, Jang?

[@maverick7109]

I have this set, with the instructions, with all the pieces and the minifigures, the only thing I do not have is the box, I wanted to know how much I can sell it?

[@JacksonN01Z]

Probably about $350?

[@boycerazor]

Nostalgia aside, the newer versions are a huge improvement.

For all the people who said "this sucks", could u come up with a better design in 2000 for little kids? that's right u cant

[@dualmoldedb3088]

Slash 909 I have this and it has good play features better than the new ones

[@Emmatriaaa]

I had this set. It was really cool. Looking back at it now. It looks really outdated. Yeah, I agree. It’s old. It’s like being mad at a 1950’s photographer for taking a black and white photo.

[@AphidBlade67]

This set is awesome

[@thenothingking]

Wow compared to now...even back then, it looks like garbage

[@brandonthetoyandgamecollector]

It’s amazing how far the falcon has gone LEGO wise looking at this

[@MarkRichards1]

This model really shows off the classic Lego build techniques. Lego was just learning how to do angles and the hinged construction was the way to make it happen. The parts inventory was very simple - This set pre-dates numbered bags, so finding the part you need is harder. Thus all the elements of a certain size were all the same colour. This makes the model very easy to assemble, which is important to Lego's classic market. I think Lego vastly underestimated what people wanted in terms of Star Wars toys. The first few years' models were all simple like this one. Once the second generation of models came out, starting around late 2003, you can see they vastly improved the designs, used more pieces, and built models that adults would like better.

[@justinm1766]

She don't look like much but she got it where it counts kid

[@KassidyJMoore]

I understand and respect that sets like these hold a lot of nostalgic value to many people and that obviously 2000 was a simpler time... but it looks like something my younger brother built from his LEGO box...

[@Adam_and_steve]

This looks like something I built

[@Antheee]

The Emoji Master that’s why it’s so good

[@zm3609]

@@Antheee that's nice

[@InvisibleMan95]

This set is older than most of your viewers! When i was a kid i wanted to get it so badly.

[@hooptydoo417]

I bought this new when it came out. It’s still assembled in my basement. I’ve always liked it. Don’t think it deserves all the hate it gets.

[@powndrone650]

It’s a space burger

[@aegonthedragon7303]

Got it for Christmas. Love it. Did a few mods, made the cockpit closer to the body, added the tunnel, and a bottom gun. For 17 years old, it looks pretty well still for its age

[@nian89]

As an 11 year old me this was the best Christmas present ever. I know it doesn't look like in the movies and there's too much blue on it but we had imagination back then and in our mind when playing with it, it was the real deal.

[@sammygeorge7584]

I wish Lego would give ideas for alternate builds on the box and instructions like they used to on the old sets. I mean yeah they look weird but it promotes the creative spirit that Lego was founded on.

[@RMJ1984]

One thing many new lego sets lacks these days are actual play spaces. They are so tight and crammed there really is very little space. Sure many people like to just have them for viewing pleasure, but there are kids who play with these sets or adults as well.

[@IceAndFlameL755]

Think maybe the smaller ship is supposed to be one of the escape pods. The Falcon had 5. Although they were never shown till The Last Jedi. But mentioned in A New Hope

[@0derpred0]

So nostalgic. I thought there'd be a lot more nostalgia comments! Kids today don't know just how good they got toys

[@DargoDog]

How much would people loose their minds if in one of the movies they ripped the Falcon apart and turned it into one of the alternate vehicles? I do like the latest Falcon build, but I think they did a really good job for a first attempt for the parts they had. Thanks for sharing!!!

[@voorheestv1299]

Lego looked so different back then.

[@jiminyjustin]

I wonder if the way we look at this set today is how the characters saw the actual ship

[@deathinaction]

This is deep and genious

[@warpedplanks]

When that falcon has a bigger interior than the ucs one :P

[@lunar6562]

Danzooo

[@christiancarpenter5567]

this falcon playset looks best from underneath! I think we can all agree.

[@BenBradford1]

I remember making the decision to get a transformer instead of this for one of my birthdays as a kid... I have always regretted that decision.

[@grummanf-14tomcat8]

The reds and blues are definitely out of place, but I feel it gives the set a bit of character.

[@michaelfinlay1412]

and less than the original tie fighters, they were awfully coloured, grey would look better then blue

[@adriennewagenaar7202]

I miss the little comics they used to put in the instructions, they were always neat

[@connortessier9841]

I miss older sets they have a charm that you don't really get now a days

Nostalgia.

Oh man... there is so much nostalgia in this set :)

[@creeper6006]

[@rogeliomontes5604]

This guy sounds like Bob Ross, a very soft voice, kinda relaxing

[@theosh1930]

The small ship on the ramp is actually an attempt of making the millennium falcon's scape pod but is really inaccurate.

[@mikemurdock7234]

I have a soft spot for these old original sets cause of how colorful some of them are. This one had a great set of colors.

[@JANGBRiCKS]

*Posting Last Jedi movie spoilers = instant permanent ban!* Don't even joke about it. Intentionally ruining other peoples' innocent, happy experiences is not okay, at all, and I won't tolerate it.

[@TheRyder8000diamonds]

why would they do that anyway?

[@joannesta.romana4151]

[@Funko_pop_josh]

Okay

[@user-gz3qd3jn4r]

I always wanted to ask you jang, why is the 'i' in your name the only small letter?

[@benjohnston9970]

JANGBRiCKS how long have you had this set?

[@halotornadokick]

It honestly isn't that bad I kind like it.Just needs some exterior work

[@gusmiller974]

I believe that the 'non canonical vehicle' inside the ship may actually be based off of the escape pod that was supposedly located within the ship. Having got a toy, not lego, version of the falcon in around 2007 it also had a small vehicle like this in that exact same space. Hope that helps!

[@Kawhilight_]

Even though its ugly,it is nostalgic.

[@harrywompa]

I miss these types of sets. They really fit with all other lego, whereas nowadays even the basic pieces in lego sets are clearly star wars brand parts. I also love that the '99 sets weer made to build and take apart over and over. Nowadays the lego I see in stores and with my little cousins is a kind of build once to play with or display, and it's so different. I never got this falcon cause my family was poor, but I got like, 5 landspeeders and vaporator sets and stuff, and the best part was being able to assemble and dissemble the sets in one sitting (also the boxes had alternate sets to build which were fun to figure out). It was just so much more involved than it seems like lego is now, and I miss that.

[@kingcodester1112]

The detail has changed massively since the first but still looks interesting. One day I'll get myself a Millennium Falcon, one day

[@shinobitreecko8442]

Decent for its time, somewhat holds up to today.

[@anthonydubeau1634]

ShinobiTreecko8: Minecraft, Pokemon, and more!

[@oleimann]

Looks like the MF after its meeting with the Death Star, since Leia is on board, but Ben Kenobi isn't. It's a pity they just didn't add him as well for more scenes :) Also, it looks smoother than the current versions. Would like to have seen a way to lock the top in with some technic LEGO.

[@ObviusRetard]

I remember getting this set as a kid and I loved it, I didn't care at all about the weird colours, I guess as a kid I was much more tolerant. But still there is such an abundance of wrong colours so it almost seems intentional and cheerful, it's really a play model for kids and not a super serious collectors thing to just rot in a shelf. What I would give to be 6 years old again : D

[@CaptainCaptainZach]

ObviusRetard It’s for collectors now though. 1999, first model Falcon. I collect classic SW sets and looking at this one. Definitely a cool set!

[@VAULT-TEC_INC.]

In 2000, I had been married for one-year and had just graduated from law school. I was an adult! Independent! On my way to success! I hadn’t bought a toy or a Lego set in over a decade. I still loved Star Wars but purchased expensive, movie-accurate replica props, like lightsabers and blasters. And then I remember seeing the Lego Millennium Falcon for sale, and I haven’t regretted a day of Lego collecting and building as an AFOL since.

[@forkliftman3240]

The random bright blue and red bricks kind of remove the feel of the falcon, and the tunnel to the cockpit is a little awkward looking, I get lego was more limited back then and I'm glad to see they're taking advantage of the new pieces

[@rickleuce8025]

7:24 My brother and I built a second "escape pod" just like the one the set came with and would place it on the other ramp. We also built a turret for the underside and mounted a competition cannon in the hollow space toward the front of the ship. It was a blast to customize. Newer sets come with such tiny pieces and are so detailed its sometimes hard to see any room for customizability.

[@crusty_argonian_butler]

That's awesome. I'm looking at this set all I can think of is the customization possibilities!

[@MACPCOSX7]

Hey JANG, any chance that floppiness is from the age of the parts? I seem to remember those trap doors holding decently well.

[@themetalmaniac7811]

I really like this set.

[@serghini11]

That “Speeder” is in fact a canonical thing. It is in fact meant to be a small ship (I think it’s a escape pod) that is stored in the side of the falcon. One of Hasbros Millennium Falcon ships actually included it.

[@pseudonymousbeing987]

Swedish Gojira fan 2000 It is in fact not. You cant trust Hasbro anyway. They make stuff up for play value and that's one of those things.

[@MJKToys]

Yup, and in SW: ANH once the 'Falcon is brought on board the Deathstar they mention the escape pods have been jettisoned and that no one is on board. Several subsequent Lego MF's and the epic Hasbro Legacy Falcon have pods as well.

[@HuigbertsGamed]

7:10 that pod is actually canon. It also appears in hasbro toys and other things. Or at least something very similar in design (this one is a very simplistisc variant)

[@graysoncaltabiano8058]

They also use it for a scene in the last jedi

[@jackmello9714]

I love the fact that you can use your imagination and build other ships. If I was around back in 2000, I would have probably gotten this one. And I love the comic strip.

[@__sno__3820]

Behold The century pigeon

[@spacecowboy3569]

What the heck is an alluminum falcon?!

[@Vnigma17]

This was a pretty cool set, simple in design, but overall it conveys the idea of the millennium falcon at the time of the start of the Star Wars hype. ... Lego Star Wars hype that is.

[@LinkieLinkGameing]

I believe the Idea with the 2000 model of Star Wars sets was to use parts that you would already have to make the set.

[@partiallyaturkeyguy7080]

I think that cockpit piece would be perfect for the resistance bomber

[@Matt-cw2zr]

I would never spoil that last star wars movie for the next twenty years! For I, don’t even like the wars of the star

[@lelelelelelelelelelele9766]

Nice set

[@tommylj]

Impressive how far LEGO have come in their set designs!

[@AlexTheMan2022]

I believe that little ship is supposed to be the escape pod that Vader was talking to an admiral about in ANH

[@mauricereischke472]

I actually like the set, but the rendom blue and red bricks break it a bit for me. :-(

[@iamarealduck8979]

To be honest, that set looks awesome. It is just the colorful bricks

[@langhaarkatze2]

i prefer this modell actually. it just feels more like a toy and a lego set and not like a model for the glasbox. (of course theres also a big nostalgy-bonus :D)

[@nauscakes1868]

I just got the new one from the store the other day, and it was a lot of fun to build. So now that I have some experience with one version of it--I'm stoked to see the history of the ship and how it evolved over the years through Lego. I do agree that Legos are more fun to play with than store in a glass box. One of the reasons I Was really excited for the Falcon (the new one) was all the open interior space meant I could totally revamp it!

[@mistamysteriuh]

It may be old but hey, no gaps

[@Kylehappy305]

Welp Are we devolving?

[@zebmontgomery]

@@Kylehappy305 yes the new one has no gaps

[@shadowcat1606]

Wow ... what a reality check that is ! Hard to believe how badly i wanted this set back then.

[@JhonPittsburg]

Lego predicted the Falcon's escape pod 17 years early.

[@deboxmojave6541]

This looks great. I prefer this to the modern one

[@thelucasfirefilms9413]

It's amazing to see just how much Lego has changed over the years.

[@rebelfleettrooper9881]

Primitive, yet excellent!

[@ROTSTarge]

I have to admit, I loved this set. I remember taking it to the backyard to swoosh around, only to lose some of the barrels of the quad turret in the grass X3 That said, I do think that compared to modern sets, it does look very dated. For the year 2000, it was fantastic, but I doubt it would work on today's store shelves.

[@josephstone547]

Lol that sounds fun, "swooshing" it around in the backyard. I'm pretty sure my brother's got this set and now I have all the pieces after adding their lego collection to mine.

[@JamesBoxxy]

So much nostalgia!

[@zackakai5173]

I remember thinking this set looked so cool back when it came out when I was about eight years old. Now I look at it compared to the newer Falcon models, and it's like night and day difference.

[@alperisler89]

fun fact: there were no lego stormtroopers back in 2000, so the ones in the comic are just imagined how they would be

[@ki-adimundi8695]

Finally a high quality review of this set

[@skriptr6802]

I think it's pretty good since in modern sets you don't get too much space to add your own things and even if there is then it looks sort of out of place, but with this it has a lot of place and it doesn't have too much detail so what you add won't look too different exept maybe the colors since they make different ones now, anyways this is prob one of my favorite old sets.

[@demonbre]

I think that the basic shape is much better here than in the newer models. In particular, the transition from the two front fangs to the main body of the ship. The newer models look like saucers that had those fangs crudely attached to them, while here there is a seamles transition.

[@LegoDaniel]

Please make a comparison video with two falcons

[@LegoDaniel]

The ucs one

[@bernielopez7429]

The graphic design of these older prints is very cool

[@asilturkklc171]

This set seems... İncomplete. I know It's really old, but the x wing set from 1999 looks good for even today. I think you make it a lot better with extra pieces.

[@MrClassic.]

You forgot to show the hatch just below the quad laser canon 4:28 - looking at the instructions, it seems you can actually seat a minifig inside that kind of hidden space, to control the canon (although there are no controls). As for the "ribbed hose piece" used for the engines 3:56 - isn't that rather similar to the pipe/tube used in the most recent Falcons, including UCS 75192?

[@hirohummel267]

Lego has changed soo much

[@jonathancoleman9062]

I have the The Force Awakens Millennium Falcon and it is built in a totally different way in terms of sides and roof. This set is older than me but is still pretty recent and it amazes me how much new techniques lego builders can use today. I always wonder how much lego will have improved by the time another eighteen years are up, and how many more Millennium Falcons we'll have gotten.

[@2BitSlow]

This made me have flashbacks to my childhood... of me building this and it was one of my first star wars lego sets

[@EthanRhame]

lol cuz u don't have the new UCS one yet xD great review JANG :)

[@lewismx8815]

When you showed the birds eye view of the set, the overall shaping (excluding the cockpit) it actually looks alot more accurate than the new falcon models.

[@maryparaskeva]

I remember when I went into a store with my mom back then and she wanted to buy me this set but I was angry at her and I said no. I still hate myself for this.

[@TheTrekkie42]

Ernst Stavro Blofeld yeah you messed up bro.

[@BlackPhoenixV]

I had this set back in the day and thought it was probably the worst set I ever owned for the points you touched on. When I was building it would never stay together and always fell apart.

[@TediI47]

I like the stubbier proportions of the old one a lot. The amount of alt-builds is crazy too, that robot is neat and has strong life on mars vibes.

[@mistamysteriuh]

Man, classic sets look so different from today. Prefer that ramp to other versions though

[@katboy0078]

This looks like something I would build with red and blue pieces everywhere!

[@MCLegoboy]

Dude, I think the one I have is older than yours and the reason why is at the end of the instructions, I saw there was a little image saying exactly where to put the landing struts. Mine doesn't have that. I always thought they went into the square holes on the bottom panels, but the little image makes way more sense. My instructions are complete, they just don't have that one small image. I guess LEGO received a few complaints and they added those it in for clarification.

[@just--facts]

4:29 thats a sad quad lazer cannon XD

the escape pod is canon it was in the new one

[@Zacmario66]

I actually really like this, the interior reminds me of something I would've built when I was younger. Maybe that means it's ugly but whatever.
