    I'd like to see some good non-lego MF toys. Another run of the Hero Series Millennium Falcon would be good, and something a bit more 'play-sized' that's actually decently shaped & detailed. A re-release of the Fine Molds 1/72 Falcon kit would be good too.

    How about the Star Wars X-wing Miniatures Game (Fantasy Flight Games) Millennium Falcon? It's a decent looking representation of the ship in a nice compact size. It's nicely detailed but really for display only. It's quite fragile.

    The best Falcon toy was the Legacy Collection one. Bigger than that rubbish Hero Series one. And was a playset with lights & sounds.

    Comparing the two would be like comparing Margot Robbie with Rebel Wilson. Each has its own place in the market & price point.

    The Legacy Collection version is a real hoot.

    I bought the Legacy one from TRU for $100 (I remember them having a huge stack of them too), which is how much the Hero one is now. The only difference is time of release.
    I also have no idea who either Margot Robbie or Rebel Wilson are.

    They're similar, yet different.

    TRU had the Legacy Collection Millenium Falcon for RRP $250. Compare that to the Hero Series(?) of RRP $100.

    I purchased my Legacy Series version on clearance for $150. I thought I got a bargain. But at $100.

    My understanding was that the Legacy was good as a playset - lights, opens up, etc; and the Hero was better as a proportioned representation of the ship. I'm having trouble finding a direct comparison review though.

    Either way, my partner has banned me having one in the house. :'-(
    Apparently a 2 foot spaceship is too much.

    Reject Shop is carrying older Black Series 3+3/4" ($10) & 6" ($20) figures.
