The verdict

This is the smaller, cheaper Falcon that still manages to feel like a proper display piece, and the profile of that famous saucer hull genuinely got me.

Every printed detail, the angled flight stand, the 25th anniversary brick, it all reads as premium in a way I did not expect from 921 pieces. What I keep bumping into is the price: at nearly ninety dollars with zero minifigures, it asks a lot for its size. If you want the iconic silhouette on a shelf without committing to the giant versions, this is your ship.

The full review

What it is

The Millennium Falcon is the ship LEGO keeps returning to, and this 2024 version is the midi-scale take, part of the new Starship Collection and one of the first sets marking 25 years of LEGO Star Wars. It sits at 921 pieces, measures about 24cm long, and comes with a proper display stand that tilts the whole thing at a flight angle. I will be honest, I went in a little skeptical about a midi Falcon, but the finished shape won me over fast. The saucer body has that smooth, slightly menacing curve, the twin mandibles up front are crisp, and the whole thing photographs like a much bigger model. Toy photographers have fallen hard for it for exactly that reason.

The catch

Here is where I have to be straight with you. The price is the sticking point, and it is the thing nearly every reviewer and commenter circles back to. At 84.99 dollars with no minifigures, you are paying close to what a small minifigure-scale ship would cost, and that makes the midi positioning feel a bit awkward. Several Brickset commenters said as much, one noting that seventy-five pounds gets you a Falcon with nobody to fly it. The build itself is lovely but short, an evening of maybe two to three hours, and a couple of spots (the exhaust especially) are fiddlier than they should be, with clips that need to be placed just so or the panels sit proud.

Who it's for

So who is this for? If you love the Falcon and want its unmistakable outline on a shelf without surrendering a whole tabletop or a few hundred dollars to the UCS version, this hits a genuinely nice middle ground. The display value is high, it needs almost no dusting fuss thanks to that closed hull, and it looks far more expensive than its part count. I would steer away if you build primarily for the engineering journey or if minifigures are the whole point for you, because this set gives you neither a long build nor a single crew member. It is a display object first, and on that measure it delivers.

The parts story

What the build is actually like, and the pieces worth knowing about.

Building this is a calm, tidy few hours rather than a marathon. There are 11 numbered bags and a chunky 182 page instruction book, and the construction leans on layered panelling to sculpt that round hull, so you spend a lot of the build slotting angled plates and tiles to chase the curve. It is satisfying when a section suddenly reads as Falcon, though the underside clip work and the exhaust assembly test your patience, since a few connections only look right when everything is seated precisely.

The standout headline is that there are no stickers at all. Every decorated element is printed, which at this price point is exactly what you want, and it includes a printed nameplate and a commemorative 25th anniversary brick. There is also a new part in a new color, a trans-blue flex tube that pops against the grey bodywork. It is not a set stuffed with rare exotic elements, it is more a clever use of common greys and slopes to fake a smooth surface, but the printed detailing and that flight stand are what lift it from a parts pile into something that feels considered.
