Just want to point this out,..Now that now I subscribed to (Build the Millennium Falcon) and got my first shipment of issues 1 to 4,I been so excited and wanting to do this ever since I watched the Europe do their builds. I called the Customer service just to find out about my new subscription # and Account # and was informed by them that USA does not get the gifts like UK get?? What?? No Millennium Falcon T-Shirt? No statue of Han Solo? What? man that blows... Paying the same price $1,500.00 USD, but don't get any benefits like Europe does? How is that fair? We should get just the same things as Europe does its good business. Just saying is all. Anyway still going to build this. End of Line.

While I would love a t-shirt (I haven't even seen it), I'd rather get the wall mount and binder. Those are practical pieces that go with the project. The Han statue is big and isn't the greatest likeness. It would be cool if the shirt were offered as a separate purchase to US subscribers.

I would have liked the t-shirt, so I ordered one off a guy in a UK that is selling his. The Han Solo figure wasn't a very good one, so I don't mind losing that.
Definitely appreciating the wall mount as I'll most likely use that to mount my Falcon, but I've heard that the US customers will only get a single binder. Also from what I've read, each binder hold approximately 25 magazine issues? And that if we wish to get the additional three(?) binders, we'll have to buy them for $19.99 each? Is that correct? Or will all the binders be part of our subscription?
Thanks.

I can live with a two pack for $20. I was thinking it was that much a piece. Anyone have a link to a pic of the shirt so I can see what I'm missing?

The link automatically forwards to the US version, so I only see the wall mount and binder.

Thank you! That is a nice looking shirt. I'll have to just live with my lovely wall mount I'll be getting in a couple of years.

The Binder and Wall Mount is what the US subscribers get as gifts. Just one Binder though. If you want another one or more because the binder only holds up to 25 books, you will have to pay for it. End of Line.

I originally wanted one of the Han Solo figures that the UK peeps get, until I saw it and realized it wasn't really that good. I did order some things from someone in the UK on Ebay to get some other issues as well as the UK shirt and an extra set of blue prints! Woot!

Okay all. I finally took the leap. I opted for the 12 month subscription. Can anyone tell me how the shipments will roll out? Looking forward to this project. Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance. they will ship out once monthly.Usually you receive the package 10-14 days after your payment posts.You will get a notice that the payment was processed and then a second notice when the package ships.

I also just purchased the 12 month subscription, and can't wait to get started. I was wondering if there will be an option to purchase the remaining sets all at once, instead of waiting for the monthly shipments over a 12 month period?

HI birddust, welcome to the forum.You cannot purchase the remaining sets because they have not been released yet.It is a 24 month subscription initially.Once it goes past the 12th month of parts you have the option of a 12 month subscription.Once the 24 month part is released then they may offer the Falcon as a full kit depending on stocking levels.
I hope that makes sense
Carl
