Description
Obsession with Accurately Recreating the Studio Model
The ‘1.7-meter studio model’ is truly special to every Star Wars fan.
It all began with the studio model used to film Star Wars: A New Hope.
Producing a ‘perfect replica’ is an extraordinary challenge. It is also the ultimate wish that fans have dreamt about fulfilling.
To all Star Wars fans who have been committed to that wish, here is what Bandai has to offer. Here is the ultimate Millennium Falcon.
Reproducing the Finest Details
Quad Laser Cannons
The precisely recreated quad laser cannons are mounted onto the detailed turret seats and triggers.
Experience the distance between the gunner and the cannon during battles.
Walls of the Holes
Focus on not only on the structures inside the holes, but also the walls of the holes.
These cylindrical walls are covered with various configurations, each with their own functions.
Sides of the Ship
Separate pieces for each detail were created to recreate the deeply-detailed sides of the ship in a three-dimensional fashion. The free-running pipes are represented in combination with individual pieces for a closer resemblance to the studio model.
Around the Exhaust Ports
The complex details on the top of the Millennium Falcon are precisely crafted. This level of detail is impossible to recreate in anything smaller than this 1/72 scale model.
The kit offers a choice between plastic and etched pieces to create the mesh vent grills, allowing for a more in-depth recreation.
LED Light-Up Features (LED Unit Included)
Sublight Engines
It is widely thought that light from the Millennium Falcon?s sublight engines is blue. However, the light shown when Star Wars: A New Hope was released was white. For the PG 1/72 Scale Millennium Falcon, white lights were chosen as a sign of respect toward the first movie.
The unique curved engine consists of light guiding parts that recreate the way the engine would light up in the movie.
Cockpit
The characteristic panels on the back of the cockpit light up as seen in the movie, evoking memories of memorable scenes.
Landing Gear
The three iconic landing gear legs are illuminated with LEDs and sturdily support the ship they did in the movie. The lights also help to recreate the image of the ship when it is parked.
