Hasbro Millennium Falcon Discussion Thread

Re: Hasbro's rumored New Falcon!

Actually, I've been out of the 3.75" game for quite some time. I like this Falcon because it's bigger, nicer and more accurate than the previous toy.

No love for the Vintage series? Those are what actually kept me IN and narrowing my focus. Now what to do with all the figures from '95 on up?

Re: Hasbro's rumored New Falcon!

I haven't gotten the 3.75" in years either. I think 99 was when I got rid of all my stuff and stopped buying. This has me a little interested again. I almost bought Aayla Secura's starfighter at Target the other day...

Oh, I like the VOTC just fine. But I don't open those. I like them because of the vintage-style Kenner packaging.

The McQuarrie figures (and the antimated CW style) are the only other SW figures I've purchased in the past few years. Those are cool. The rest? Meh. I've burned out and moved on.

Anyone know when it is supposed to be released?

Re: Hasbro's rumored New Falcon!

For my VOTC I very carefully cut the bubble and took my figures out. Just gotta play with them. Now my collection is going mostly OT, NO more clones at moment, select PT. What I really want is to recreate the vintage line in modern.. but enhance it. Basically Im after those almost but not quite figures that almost got made during the vintage run like Yarna... but were there ever any others?

Oh and Falcon release date is July I think. Very may well be during the onslaught of the 26th.

It's funny you should mention this because I've been thinking about doing the same thing. I still own all my Kenner Star Wars toys, but I don't have the majority of the items from ROTJ. I'd like to fill in the gaps from that movie as well as collect the modern versions of OT characters. There are plenty of characters that were never made back in the vintage lines.

Re: Hasbro's rumored New Falcon!

Well what I mean are figures that made it to the prototype stage but were scraped. Yarna exsists in hardcopy form but I don't know of any others.

Ah, gotcha. Sounds like a cool plan. I still want my rocket firing Boba Fett.

Haha, easy answer: mod the preview Jango Fett's backpack to fit with a Boba Fett and *bam* rocket firing MODERN Fett

I was going to look for a thread about this, but I'm on my lunch and am too lazy to look for it

Nice packaging, too:

He did bring a new picture though.

That box must be HUGE!

Re: Hasbro's rumored New Falcon!

I just noticed that on the box Han and Chewie wouldn't be the ones flying. Kinda funny...to me at least.

Then it'd be farrr to big to be a toy primarily aimed at kids.

Yeah, that would be waaay to big for a children's toy.
