BANDAI Vehicle Model 006 Star Wars Millennium Falcon Plastic Model Kit -Story of Roue one-, White

I bought it cause i wanted to practice some weathering and miniature paint work (i may have gone a little heavy on the weathering) it's an amazing little model that comes in all white and its very easy to build and paint. My only issue is the instructions were on the inside of the box so they were really small and i couldnt read them very well and there are so many stickers i didnt even bother with any of the stickers.

There is only one possible way that Bandai produced this kit: They produced an ultra detailed, full-sized model... and then invented a shrink ray.I cannot possibly over-exaggerate the amount of insane detail on this tiny little kit. For reference, if you play the FFG X-Wing Miniatures game, this model kit is actually SMALLER than the Millennium Falcon FFG produces, and yet it easily has orders of magnitude more detail. You can literally identify individual pieces from the original donor model kits the ILM builders used when they made the original Falcon model.And on top of all of the insane detail, this kit also maintains Bandai's insane engineering prowess. This is a snap together kit, but so much thought has gone into how the pieces fit that not only are the joins ultra tight without the need for glue, but mold lines are cleverly hidden so there is almost zero need to sand or otherwise clean up the model.I can't promise you won't go blind trying to paint this thing, but it's an incredibly fun kit, and Bandai could easily charge 3 times as much for the quality you receive (but hopefully they won't read this and get any ideas about raising the price...).

Small and challenging to paint with incredible detail gives me the great opportunity to hone my painting skills and also take not too much time.

Not a bad little model. Lots of great detail for something so small. I would have gave it 5 stars but, the stickers it came with where a pain. I would prefer some slide decals. I did find some off line to go with this kit and, I'm planning on buying another one to use the slide decals on. This was easy to build and with some panel accent and a little pastel weathering you can make a decent little Millennium Falcon for your shelf. It is worth the price for sure.

I've built quite a few of these little Bandai kits and I love them. I hadn't really tried my hand at a vehicle yet (mostly been building the great Bandai Star Wars figures kits) and I got the 1/144 scale Falcon to build so I thought I would experiment first on this little version. This guy is small, smaller than the X-Wing Expansion card game Millennium Falcon that I have but it's more detailed and accurate in it's proportions. And this is a short build, maybe 30 minutes if you go real slow (stickering took the longest for me, aside from all my own painting). I did a primer coat, light ghost grey, then an insignia white coat all from Tamiya spray cans I got here on Amazon, and then weathering from kits (also Tamiya). This was another fun build and fun to paint to take the model to another level Another review here PJR1138 did a screen accurate paint job and it's fantastic that you can make a model this small so detailed and how a fantastic paint job can really bring it to life. Great, cheap way to spend an afternoon, this thing was like $9, this comes FULLY APPROVED.

It's a great model for anyone who loves Star Wars and was easy to assemble. It was a nice addition to my model collection.

It was very detailed. Especially for such a small model. It was fun to build.

I purchased this model to experiment with the camera and lighting. I needed something detailed, and while this model has great detail for its size, it's a little overpriced in my opinion. Perhaps hobbyists have an easy time placing decals on a model without instructions, but I couldn't place all stickers on since I don't know where they all go. There is some guidance where a few stickers are placed. The instructions for assembling the model are excellent and accurate.Instead of placing the remaining stickers, I'm electing to touch up and paint the model to make it look more realistic on camera.In summary, cool model, descent detail, but a bit overpriced.
