Hey all,
I am looking for a kit of the millenium falcon, but cant seem to find one. Does anyone know where I can get one???
jim
Federation Models has one in 1/72 Scale for about $50.00
Rumor has it that there are new SW models coming out shortly, but I don’t know who’s making them or what scale they will be.
You could be talking about the re-releases of AMT/ERTL ?
My guess about those new Star Wars kits … would be the re-release of the AMT/ERTL kits of way back when … but, just a guess … [swg]
There are no plans for the Falcon kit to be re-released just yet… Or at all… The AMT kit is definately not 1/72… $50 is way too much… Can pick them up cheap on ebay or at trading posts…Best bet is to look around… I have a half kit of the cutaway version… If you can find the rest of it, I am happy to help you out!..

chris, do you know who made the cutaway version, and what the kit number is???/
jim
One problem I got with the cutaway Sci-Fi kits is that normally in the movies the interior dimensions normally way exceeds the dimensions of the exterior Model.
This is especially true for the Millenium Falcon & the Aliens APC.
Hey Jim, The cut-away Falcon is also from AMT/ERTL kit #8789 and is based on thier earlier Falcon kit. They come up on ebay quite often and range from $10 to $30. I got one in a lot of six Star Wars kits for $30[:D].

Yeah, thats very true Model Museum… But there is a Japanese guy that has done the cutaway Falcon a whole lot of justice… You can find it on the gallery of StarShip Modelers… Its all lit, and well I wish I could do the same, but simply dont have the patients! It is a stunning looking replica!
Also, $30 for any AMT model is paying too much… You will find a decent model out there… As I said… I have half of a cutaway sitting here, happy to help out in some way!

Thanks for the website, now I just have to find a cutaway falcon!!! Anybouby have one they wanna offload???
jim
RCertl will re-release the M. Falcon. Not the cut-away (as of yet) but a falcon nonetheless.
Do you think thats an actual model pic???
Be great if they finally got the sides right
I have one I have been thinking about putting on e-bay anyway. E-mail me and we’ll work something out.
hey there
mvaneersel, I sent you an email through the webmaster, if you didnt get it let me know.
there is a story behind my wanting this specific kit, or it wouldnt be such a big deal to get my hands on one.
thanks all
jim
Release of the M. Falcon, X-Wing & Snow Speeder? Cool! If I could find a Speeder Bike & Shuttle Tydirium I’d have all the kits I lost! Course, I need to win the Lottery, too! LOL
