Hi Guys, My name is John and I live in Texas. I'm 51 and have been a Star Wars fan since I saw the first movie in 1977. I've been a Millennium Falcon fan just as long. I just ordered the first parts for the Build the Millennium Falcon kit. I am stoked!!!! This will be my first subscription based kit so it'll be a learning curve for me as far as patience goes. But from what I've seen so far in the build threads; this is going to be an enlightening experience.

Welcome to the forum. If you ever need inspiration or guidance on any model issue this is the place to be.

That falcon looks a simple brilliant model and I am sure you will have some great fun constructing it.

Hope your build goes well.
Happy Modelling

Thanks for all the welcomes. I will post a diary when I begin my build, but I'm slow so it may take some time. :) It's good to know there are so many helpful modelers here, because I am not really good at some of this stuff. Building, I'm OK but painting and weathering..... my skill is less than stellar.
