UCS Millenium Falcon re-release?

[Jetfire in the sky]

I'm thinking in the $900's, a Lego over $1000 in Oz retail might not seem sane to the shops who will stock it.

Leaning on $1k going by piece count. The rereleased Death Star is still $800 at Myer and Lego Shop, and $600 at BigW. The previous MF has 20% more pieces than the Death Star. The rumoured extras will add a couple 100 more pieces - I'm hoping that adding 1-200 to 5174 pieces doesn't substantially change the price.

I reckon BigW should be able to do a RRP of $750-800?

Im tempted to layby the Average Joe version from Big W to bang around with & invest some coin into the UCS.
Always wanted a Falcon but never got around to it :/

That's the one. I missed out on the release years ago with the episode 4 crew, the FA version from the previous big w toy sale, so I'm determined to grab one this year

Agreed - that Saturn V is unbelievably good value. No wonder it has been on back order for so long.

Got my tax done. Have about 90% of the cost coming in my return.

Now just need to save for the UCS SnowSpeeder.
