Never got into the microfighters (unless they came with a cool minifigure), but my brother had this. It's now somewhere in my part bins.

Same for me. I got a couple as present over the years. Now they are in my parts bin. They have cool parts though.

Only in the last couple of years, have I started buying the SW microfighters, and it's a shame, because I really like them. I wish I'd been buying them all along.

I miss when they made multiple sets in one year to verse each other, which was the whole point of them.

I've got this one!
Unfortunately I lost the printed cockpit, which is kinda the only cool piece.

Went to bed early on another Star Wars day. Man, I always find a way to do that. I miss when Random Set of the Day was 9pm EST.

Of the three Mellennium Falcon Microfighters, this one has the best cockpit print on the cone because it's black. Although it's a bit large, I also like the use of the engine block for the seat for another bit of detail. I also like the greebling between the nacels with the jumper and grill tile in this configuration. The Sequel Trilogy version with Chewbacca rotates that configuration 90 degrees, it doesn't look as interesting to me, and the 2021 version just used a slope. Each Falcon Microfighter has their own set of pros and cons.

No, because plot armor in Lego is more powerful than space or, in fact, the galaxy itself.

My kids have this one.
I don’t care what people say. This is the UCS Millennium Falcon.

Pretty sure this is one of the escape pods mentioned at the start of Ep4.

I have the 2018 remake of this set.

Yep, that's all I've got to say.

I have the updated version from 2021 on my desk. I love it!

Aaah the culprit! This was the first LEGO set I bought from a local convenience store, that took me out of my dark age. 10 years later and 494 sets later, here we are.

Wow, what a coincidinck! Been a lifetime SW fan, and played with Legos as a kid. We pretty much have the same story and passion there after, this little gem. I agree, I had to have that solo and my first falcon also. Then the passion got re-ignited. Hope TLG keeps making micro-fighters, but with figs that are more obscure.

Good luck partner!

"This is my Lego Set Zero, the one that brought me out of the Dark Ages. I was always a fan of the MF and was a huge Lego fan growing up but then grew away from it. The size and cost of this set meant it was an easy purchase 10 years ago. Little did I know though it was a gateway into reconnecting with Lego and becoming an AFOL. And from one Han Solo minifig, going on to collect that full first series of Microfighters to today where Brickset reports I have over 950 minifigs and 430 plus sets. They can all be traced back to this little Falcon..."

Wow, what a small world, and I can see I am only 60 sets behind you after those 10 years. Good luck to you, and here's to the ongoing joy that wee colored (or grey!) bricks can bring...

Han only has plot armor when it's convenient. (See what happened when he had his reunion with Ben Solo on Starkiller Base.)

This was (sort of) the set that got me out of my dark ages.
Been jokingly pestering my wife to buy me the original UCS Lego MF. She got annoyed at me every time I brought it up so I made sure to bring it up at every opportunity. Eventually she presented me with this and said “Maybe this will shut you up!” 10 years later she is as much of a fan as me and we have lego on display in every room.
If only we had a bigger house…

some media portrays microfighters as being fancy looking speeder bikes, so that hopefully shouldnt be an issue.
