The verdict

This is the Falcon reimagined as a proper kid's playset, and honestly I had more fun with it than I expected.

The interior is roomy, the cockpit pops open easily, and it's built to survive being swooshed around the living room. The catch is enormous though: the whole set is designed around the SMART Brick that makes lights and engine sounds happen, and that brick is not in the box (and you can't even buy it on its own yet). Great for a young Star Wars kid who already has the SMART starter kit, frustrating for anyone who doesn't.

The full review

What it is

I went in a little skeptical, because the Millennium Falcon has been done at every scale under the sun, and this one is squarely aimed at kids rather than display shelves. It is part of LEGO's new SMART Play line, the interactive system that pairs a computer-chipped SMART Brick with tagged pieces and figures to fire off sounds and lights. And you know what, for a play object it works. The interior is roomy enough to actually seat the crew, the cockpit swings open without a fight, and the fuselage panels are on strong hinges so little hands can get inside without the whole thing exploding. It measures about 27cm long by 24cm wide, so it feels substantial in a kid's hands without being unwieldy.

The catch

Here is where I have to be straight with you. The entire set is engineered around the SMART Brick, and that brick is not in this box. The engine lighting, the responsive sounds, the reason half these clever features exist, all of it depends on hardware you have to source separately, and at launch you couldn't even buy the brick on its own. That is a genuinely strange decision for a set that leans so hard on it. On top of that, the build itself is not the tidiest Falcon out there. Reviewers flagged visible holes, odd protrusions, and a slightly haphazard fit in places, so the shaping clearly took a back seat to the play function. At roughly 100 dollars, you feel that trade-off.

Who it's for

So who is this actually for? A young Star Wars fan (it is marked 9 plus) who already owns the SMART Play starter kit and wants more sets to plug into it. For that kid, this is a big roomy Falcon full of interactive tricks and four fun figures, and it will get played with hard. If you are an adult builder chasing a sharp-looking Falcon for a shelf, this is not your set, and the 75192 or the smaller midi-scale versions will make you far happier. And if you do not have the SMART ecosystem yet, walk in with clear eyes about what you are actually buying.

The parts story

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

The build is quick and forgiving, exactly what you want in a set meant for younger builders. It comes together in chunky, satisfying sections, the hull panels lock onto sturdy hinges, and there is very little fiddly Technic frustration along the way. The interior is left deliberately open so figures can be posed and moved around, and the cockpit windscreen lifts cleanly. It is not a demanding build for an experienced fan, more a pleasant afternoon, but the engineering that lets those panels swing open and stay put is smarter than it first looks.

The standout here is a new Windscreen 5 x 6 x 2 2/3 element carrying the Millennium Falcon cockpit print, which is lovely and specific to this wave. There is also a Technic Axle with Oval Panel in red that parts fans will want to note. The real novelty, though, is the SMART hardware: this set brings four SMART minifigures (with torsos fused to their legs) plus SMART Tags, eight tags in total across the tiles and figures, that the SMART Brick reads to trigger the right sounds. As a pure parts-per-dollar proposition the 885 pieces are only okay, but the printed cockpit and the interactive tags are what make this box different from a standard playset.

Fun facts

01This is one of the first Star Wars sets in LEGO's SMART Play system, a new interactive line announced at the end of 2025 that uses a chip-packed SMART Brick to add lights, sounds, and motion awareness to builds.
02The set is designed entirely around the SMART Brick, yet the brick is not included in the box, and at launch it wasn't even sold separately, which reviewers found more than a little ironic.
03All four minifigures (Han Solo, Chewbacca, Luke Skywalker, and C-3PO) are SMART minifigures with their torsos permanently attached to their legs so they can carry SMART Tags that the brick detects.
04There are eight SMART Tags packed into the set in total: four built into tiles and four inside the minifigures.
