LEGO Star Wars 75375 MILLENNIUM FALCON Review! (2024)

[@MajaEmilieWinkler]

Printing a piece you cover up entirely is kinda crazy but im here for it

[@MandRproductions]

Crazier given what they don’t do for the things you CAN see on other sets 😂

[@stargazer178]

I mean I’m pretty sure it already came in the Technic Mars rover so it’s not a brand new piece at least.

[@Matt..S]

They did that in the Speedchampions Ferrari (for convenience)

[@ShortRound42]

With stuff like that, it can give you the option to leaving it open, mod it for display open. Like a cutaway. Some non Lego model builders do this and the gas and oil guys love those cutaway motors, etc. to see the inner workings.

[@aeway_]

which part? i think i missed it

[@bradsbrickpost]

This set is perfect for casual Star Wars fans that want a highly detailed model that is still able to sit nicely on a desk and doesn't scream "I'm a mega fan" like the UCS model lol

[@Morcarag]

Yup, not to mention vastly cheaper and something you can display without having to built bespoke display areas / rooms around! Hope they keep coming out with this genre of kit: highly detailed, smaller scale, display (not play) oriented.

[@thork6974]

That "holochess" tile is a clever recycling of the AR tracking markers featured on the 42158 Mars Rover set. I love stuff like that.

[@chrismoulstone3968]

Finally seeing them both side by side the new one looks so much better!

[@lucanicolasstefan4788]

They can print every part of a 85$ Falcon, but the 650$ UCS Venator gets stickers exclusively. "Only the best is good enough".

This one is pretty solid, but 100% overpriced. Come on LEGO stop trying to do this to us

[@Possfur]

I mean all lego sets are pretty overpriced

[@roxtechs]

Disney tax

[@sablepaul441]

I mean, if we consider the price per piece metric - it’s pretty good, it seems to me, isn’t it?

[@sethhelman7796]

​@sablepaul441 sure, by price per piece it's the best of the display sets, but 85 is a lot. The tantive is over priced too at 80. I think 50-60 is the best price point for the midi displays and helmet sets

[@sablepaul441]

@@sethhelman7796 with all the licensing and printed pieces though… idk, of course I’d love for it to be cheaper, I can’t even get the damn thing in my country at all, maybe only for 1.5-2x the price, so I’m not one to talk here, that’s for sure

[@JenovaCake]

Love hearing you get excited about all the small wins we get in a set like this

[@broncojuan]

This is the one I'm looking forward to. When I heard the leaks I thought it was going to be the Tantive IV, but as soon as I saw the builds I knew this was going to be awesome.

[@Nightwizard63]

For some reason, I thought you had already made a review on this, and I read the title thinking it was the dark side falcon set and my heart got crazy 😂. I really trolled myself with that one

[@denizozguven7251]

[@MeijuanPilling]

Did you know the big falcon is 859.99$ and this one is 85.99$

Idk why Pixel-Dan isn’t hired to make LEGO Star Wars ships. He made an incredible MOC with no gaps, super durable, retractable landing gear, and a ramp.

[@CommanderOfTDS]

Ask Mandr: Whats the difference between UCS, Starship Collection and Master Builder thingy.

[@MandRproductions]

Everything. 😂

[@CommanderOfTDS]

I- I- Ok I guess the best Lego Starwars ytuber is laughing at me.........

[@TheFirstCurse1]

​@@CommanderOfTDSUCS means Ultimate Collector's Series. These sets are massive and very expensive, made up of vehicles in extreme detail. They are meant for display, not play. Think of the new Venator Class Star Destroyer. MBS stands for Master Builder's Series. These sets are huge play sets full of play functions and minifigures. Think of the Ewok Village and Cloud City. The starship collection is a series of mini UCS style ships. They're meant to be more affordable and have smaller ships in great detail but small enough that you can display them more easily on a desk.

[@CommanderOfTDS]

hah you forgot the mos eisley cantina for MBS

[@TheFirstCurse1]

@@CommanderOfTDS I was just listing a couple of examples, not every single MBS set. But yes, the Mos Eisley Cantina is a MBS set.

[@onionrovirosa]

Printed pieces should be a must already. No more stickers

[@owenruth325]

In my opinion, this is a comparison of two sets with two different design criteria's. The 2024 falcon was designed for esthetics and display while the 2009 MIDI falcon was designed to play with and swoosh with the midi star destroyer; that's why the new falcon is more esthetically pleasing but less swooshable. I like how robust the 2009 midi scale sets are but I wish they had the esthetics of the 2024 midi sets.

[@joeymesa4952]

i preordered this thinking it would be solid and swooshable like the 2009 version but now after mandrproductions pointing out its not the strongest while handling it is kind of a let down. Hopefully someone can make it more solid and post a how to video

[@bucke8hea876]

The 2009 got a front boarding ramp - though i wish it was on the correct side, landing gears, bottom turret and pretty solid. Also i like the length of its mandibles compared to new one. Only downside imo are the stickers, though mine still hold up pretty well after all these years.

[@blakelarson3853]

Absolutely LOVE that there's so many printed parts in this set and no stickers.

[@andrewmcvicar6441]

Anybody else immediately notice that the gunner turret window print is actually the front of the cockpit?

[@jamiezsalmons]

This is awesome that all the parts are printed - couldn’t they have done the same with the tantive and hand?

[@COOL_GUY_Studios_OFFICIAL]

This is definitely the best out of all the midi-scale sets!!!!

[@christopherwilliams5808]

I remember building the '09 version when i was a kid. For some dumb reason I was building this in front of the front door and my mom came in with groceries and stepped on it destroying it by accident. I still have it but broken down. Im definitely getting this new one. And no I wont build it in front of the front door😅

[@willscubingchannel3062]

Great story for a reminder of what being a kid is like! Did you buy this one yet?

[@christopherwilliams5808]

@willscubingchannel3062 Yes I have bought it! Bought it during May 4th. Haven't built it yet due to a lot of working!

[@willscubingchannel3062]

@@christopherwilliams5808 i just got it two days ago, almost there! Fitting it around work is quite nice, you never want it to end right!?

[@lucahermann3040]

The model looks awesome, but I don't understand why the cockpit has a flat front. They should have used a "Plate, Round 2 x 2 with Rounded Bottom (Boat Stud)" (2654) which would have had the perfect curvature. It's not like LEGO® can't put prints on this element. They've done it before multiple times (for example a space hatch pattern for the Saturn V or a hamburger bun pattern or multiple eye patterns).

[@sincereeastman6972]

I never had a Millennium Falcon set, might just get 1

[@TravisHi_YT]

Same, I think this might be my first if it goes on sale

[@cyanide1931]

So many great prints here and at the same time stickers on two other ships. I just can't understand the logic behind it.

[@jamesadowney]

Great review for a great looking ship. The prints over the stickers is an absolute game changer and maybe the strongest draw for me to purchase this set

[@Cl0udWolf]

0 stickers on this but we got dozens of stickers on UCS sets 😔

[@user-wr3jh7ov3h]

This was a very fun build. Quite a few interesting building techniques.

[@Haaland_thegoat-ss2pg]

This set looks amazing

[@cieloazul1205]

No kidding

[@iamjoshuaiam]

0:29 that absolutely killed me

[@joshuapeterson8292]

I don't know why Lego can never figure out how to make a playscale Falcon or Mid Scale Falcon with no gaps. I did not appreciate all the time/money I had to spend to make my 7965 Falcon perfect.

[@STAG162]

I just put one of these together, and having segmented bags really helps save a lot of searching for pieces. The build quality is pretty good, but like you say it's not rugged for "play" but more just for show. I found the sections which make the rounded parts of the ship to be rather flimsy and with noticeable gaps, but if you don't go looking for them it's ok. I also appreciated the angled stand as it gives the "I'm already flying" look to it. Not really a huge Lego afficionado, but I also couldn't afford the AU$2k for the larger sized model.

[@Ev3ntly]

There’s a 150 dollar set that’s like four times bigger

[@wildernessworthy]

I was on the fence about buying this set, but the fact that is all printed pieces put me over the edge. I’m absolutely going to get this set!

[@dogelord673]

Im glad i waited. I wanted to buy the $170 flacon but I wanted something smaller so I was waiting to see if they would make one of these again and they delivered. Cant wait to buy

[@charlebob4u]

Seeing the set in person makes it look so much better than the early pictures did.

[@___David__]

All Star Wars sets are overprice, we already know that. But I'm glad they at least didn't fill this one with stickers. However, these days, the stickers aren't infuriating me as much as the lack of quality on the bricks themselves. I just finished the 400€ Medieval Castle and the amount of bricks with very visible injection molde marks left by removing the pieces from the molde too fast in it were appalling. With the prices LEGO is charging, it's just unacceptable that the bricks come with all these blemishes.

[@JmocStudios]

For sure my fav of that of those mini scale

[@cieloazul1205]

Yeah me too

[@JmocStudios]

@@cieloazul1205 yeah but the invisible hand is also really nice

[@ABrickinTime]

I would love the next step in the evolution of these miniscale sets would be removable panels to see the micro representations of the characters. LEGO: make it happen!

[@tay-lore]

I'm really liking the starship line. It was a really great next step after the helmets, which I also really enjoy. I just don't know what other helmets they could make at this point

[@forentertainment3259]

The UCS is obviously more accurate, but I gotta say, I prefer how this looks. Having less "sections" just makes it look more uniform.

[@crystalcove99]

Will definitely be picking this up! My only criticism is with how good the thrusters on the 2020 Falcon looked, which used trans blue tile pieces, this set going back to the tube piece is a bit disappointing. I wanna see if I can mod the set to have tile thrusters when it releases.

[@sunnyd1722]

I always wanted the mid scale Falcon from 2009. It’s a great to see a new one.

[@theonehitko]

having all pieces printed in sets significantly increases the likelihood of me purchasing them personally. When i was a young kid I refused to use stickers because it didn't feel authentic to lego to me. Really regret not putting the stickers on them now though especially my og hyperspace ring and separatist shuttle

[@carlsoll]

Nailed the use of *Technic* for taillight

[@darthsarcastus1064]

Personally I'd like to see a Mon Cala starship next, MC80 Home One would be amazing! Then I'll be looking for an Admiral Gial Ackbar minfigure to go with it!

[@crazydog1750]

I’ll probably wait for a sale. I do want it to make some more of my “Surprisingly Scale With Each Other “ shorts ‘cause I feel like it’d be a good one, just not at $85….

[@darthsarcastus1064]

Just building this set and with all my other starship collection sets I decided to add the main minifigures associated with the set to the base. In this case Han and Chewie will be added. For the Executor (not officially starship collection) I added Darth Vader. For the Tantive IV I added Captain Antillies and for the 77904 Nebulon-B Frigate I added General Dodonna because he commanded one in the Rebels series. Getting the Invisible Hand soon and General Grievous will be added to the stand. My opinion! LEGO should have done the same!!!! But hey! "Only the best is good enough", apparently!?

May not look like much but got it where it counts.

[@bouncybubble]

Gonna get this for my dad if I find it on sale🤞

[@EmaRussoUltra]

Yeah… it looks better on a shelf, but I own the old one, and while it has less details, it also has basically no gaps and it’s a solid brick: way better to hold in a hand and swoosh around in my opinion, and it was half the price of this new one. I already have 2 non LEGO Millennium Falcon models on my shelves, so I’m good.

[@joeymesa4952]

honestly after watching this video this set is kind of a let down that its not solid and swooshable, guess ill just keep my preorder and see if i can make it more solid myself

[@wazzawarrior5715]

This is definitely a good, set I might get it. I just wish it came with some sort of 25th Anniversary Minifigure.

[@5trider29]

I was thinking of getting the Executor, but I have mixed feelings about that, but decided to go with the Millennium Falcon. You cannot go wrong with that. Although it's a display piece, it is easily playable/swooshable with one hand.

I agree with you on the printed parts instead of stickers. However, I don’t agree with your high rating. I found so many pieces fit together rather poorly. It is very fragile as you stated.
