That Falcon is a stunning looking kit, and so it should be seeing as it's based on the Finemolds molds.

I'm a bit disappointed with the raised turret though. I've read that this was to make it more easily rotatable. However all the had to do was make the 'lugs' that secure the turret assembly to the Falcon thinner and the would then have rotated just fine, this is watching I did with the turret assembly on my Finemolds Falcon and the rotates nice and smoothly now.

I've also seen a price of about $275-$299 on different sites high would make it more expensive that the Finemolds kit was Blink

Still a stunner though Cool

Hey davetwin,

Do you happen to know how close it is to the Finemolds model. Or does anyone know?

I've been looking for a good Millennium Falcon build to put together while I wait for all my deagostini parts. It's getting harder and harder to wait though and this might be a good addition to the MF collection.

It will be pretty close to the Finemolds Falcon as I believe Revell are using their Molds.
