LEGO 75192: Star Wars Millennium Falcon the biggest Lego set, or better with the
highest number of pieces ever. That is ... where to start?
It is not easy to deal with this review
It is something that don't happens so often, the release of the largest and more expensive set than ever
Moreover, I recently elected the Star Wars Series
as the main sone to which dedicate my LEGO collection!
So that's why to start from this set with LEGO reviews: because it's difficult but celebratory.
Difficult because only to frame it properly, as you can see, I'll "sweat seven shirts"
But first, let me start with a dutiful thanks also to Alvise, that helped me get this set
subjecting his body to hard efforts,
because he had to pick it up at a Lego shop distant from me.
Maybe without him, this review would not have been possible. Therefore, thanks to Alvise!
Cut to the chase, let's begin to frame all this set's details
First of all,
Dedicate the biggest Lego set ever, to Star Wars well, it's no wonder
The series has often boasted some of the largest sets ever
It is definitely the most important and successful brand to which Lego is committed with.
Already in 2007, we had the first giant interpretation of the millennium falcon, ancestor of this Model.
The Biggest LEGO Set since then. The next year the title of "biggest" was subtracted by the Taj Mahal
So, this set is not a completely original work.
In the sense that it incorporates the design of a model already proposed in the past with extremely similar dimensions.
The design of the project was in fact completely redisegned
so much so that there are almost no points in common between the two versions.
Otherwise, one would not even explain the substantial difference on the number of pieces
from 5197 to the current of 7541
Of course many are very tiny pieces, though they create an enviable detail.
Well then, I would say to go to illustrate them all. The details that make up this set
as you can see also on a superficial level
you can see an important level of detail
Here we can see on the sides such a richness on details as well as for example
above on certain panels that try to replicate
the complexity of the Falcon's details as a form. Basic the Falcon may seem simple:
is a Circle/Semicircle with drafted dome that ends with the two protuberances
on the front, and the cockpit on one side. Smooth but if you examine it closely, you can capture the luxurity
of pipes, circuits, various structures... and that's when this LEGO set, thanks also to the size,
try to replicate in a realistic way
the structure
placing himself halfway between a modeling close to the original,
and the typical LEGO's bricks iconography.
And thanks to the dimensions, we have a model that is in scale, or very close,with the mini figures.
So let's find out by examining the first detail
which is the cockpit.
Unlike the old version, it is now an original piece of transparent plastic,
with stickers over it to simulate the frame It is a great detail that allows the team view inside
and obviously can be removed to interact and position the Minifigures
(We'll talk about Minifigures at the end)
Inside there is still a bit of detail to simulate the control panels
Outside, still beautiful, the style to make smooth the tunnel that leads to the cabin,
and the small details above that compose it if we move to the front
we will begin to notice the peculiarity of this Falcon: its asymmetry in alternating details.
Practically there is no piece of detail that match from one side to the other
this has a dual purpose: on one side
to recreate the typical
ramshackle effect of the Millennium Falcon: a modified and patched Starship,
certainly not a piece made of symmetries such as those of the empire
The second purpose is about "LEGO"
It allows of never having excessive repetitions during assembly.
To always have something different
We also look at these sorts of air intakes are all full of mixed details
to recreate like a mess effect of mechanisms. Many of these details
They may seem to be placed there a little randomly. Instead, they are there to replicate the original model
For Example, this sort of pipe or conduit that disappears inside one of these spaces
And still, we can find many details in these holes on the structure
Let's get now to the parts that can be removed to reveal the internal elements. A good percentage
of the upper body of the falcon is in fact composed of panels that do not connect, do not
fit with the structure but they just lean on it. When I discovered that, I have to admit,
I was like disappointed
Not connecting everything to the structure, seemed to me like a lack
but in fact it's a typical choice on LEGO's structures
that can open from above to find out the interior. See for example
The roofs of buildings Let's start then with this small part that,
according to the mapping of the falcon, should reveal like a small warehouse
but actually it just makes a glimpse of the cannon that appeared above the Falcon
Here, to show you better the interior, we remove the antenna and raise the panels
with the special recesses recreated and here we see the first room with a good number of details
the typical
swivel control armchair with backrest
inclinable typically occupied by Han Solo, in front of the control panel
Here instead, the small room with multi-place sofa and gaming table.
A chess-like game where
r2-d2 frequently makes Chewbacca mad.
Then it seems to be like a helmet holder and on the wall we see one of the intelligent implementations:
These stickers that simulate the circular corridor that runs all within the Falcon.
Is a nice effect of simulated depth
Then we proceed behind
We raise this panel first, then the other. And here we have the famous smuggler's hideout
removable as a gimmick in short
Some paneling, here and there and still the simulated corridors, then this sort of...
...I believe energy core. Something like this...
While on this side two openable compartments. I do not know what they should exactly represent.
Maybe 2 escape pods, I do not know
And continuing, there would be this compartment, but it has not been characterized inside
A small flaw can be said, considered the caliber of the set
And finally we get to remove the central part
that reveals very little apart from the upper tower's shooting station
I would say that with this, it's all about interior spaces
now let's look at the other external details
Obviously, observing the back the fans stand out.
The six big outlets of air. But here and there are also other small ones
Some movables, like these. The main six, however, are made really well
Especially compared to the previous version of this falcon, and are composed of an infinite bunch of piece.
All the rest of the surface
still adds many details
albeit not defined in an ultra way
Actually, the body of the falcon is like a hustle and bustle of piping, and so on and so forth.
Behind, the engine exhaust details stand out
How else could I define this detail from which it emerges the propulsive beam?
They used those original parts to make it happen
Details that I find they got just right.
Now, I may look exaggerated
But I was a little disappointed from the fact that they did not include
some LEDs to illuminate this part. I know that LED are such a rare element to be seen on LEGO sets
But, Bloody Hell! Yet it's true that we speak of the largest set ever, a collector's piece. From the cost of 800 euros
A collector's piece from the cost of 800€
Because of the prestige of the set, that was gimmick that I thought legitimate.
Not mandatory, but that would have given the set a leg up.
In fact, I know that there are mods
That predispose this thing here for those who want to try.
But in my case, I think I will leave things as they are
Let's see instead if we can discern the part below
It's not simple since the Falcon, for how it is built, does not provide to be displayed
in a different way from this. A good part of the surface is composed of flat panels
to facilitate the possibility to lift it and move it
In the peripheral parts, however, in front and behind, they placed as many details as possible.
It is then equipped with seven landing gear
Even here, you know, from aeronautical model enthusiast like I am,
I love the retractability of landing gears, and at first glance, thinking I can not have the Falcon in flight mode
I was a little afraid
However, considering the weight of this piece
and its delicacy of having to handle it It wouldn't have been a workable feature
either in gyms specialized in weightlifting
Even here, I saw it live posed sideway,
with a stand created ad hoc, obviously with the landing gears left away.
There are alternatives on posability, if you want.
Now let's focus on one of the few Gimmick of the set
Here, on the side, we have the entry ladder. Nothing phantasmagoric and, allow me the observation, between interior and exterior
I was hoping for more interaction in a larger number of gimmicks. it's true that the UCS series is more revolved
To the fidelity of the representation. But, we are still dealing with the biggest set here the biggest there...
Talking about weapons' endowment, a chapter that is always dear to me,
here's the other gimmick
A small extractable firing gun
by moving a panel. Here it is that it slides down automatically and you can orient left and right.
Still below we have a set of cannons specular to the one above with a certain mobility
The only other weapon of the millennium, It would be in the front, where from the center come
Launched concussion missiles. I regret a bit that this has not been replicated
Then if we eliminate some parts with a certain mobility, that I would call more than random,
The interaction ends with the rotating turret
Clearly improved in representation, compared to the old Falcon.
This can then be replaced by another to recreate the look of the latest trilogy
As well as tiny pieces here on the front that I believe few would have noticed
in representing a loyalty of the latest version
Regarding the tower, however, it is certainly more iconic the classic one. I like that one.
I believe that this concludes the detailed examination, of this set. Actually we still lack very heartfel chapter:
The mini-figures! We now treat it as the first point inside the evaluation
of the set. But first, I almost forgot a small size comparison
Even though you can get from the MiniFigures,
I put here a small battery
Then a scale model 1 43, for those who collect diecast,
And these instead are Transformers deluxe class, one on the alternative form, the other in Robot Mode
If I put them behind, maybe you would better feel the proportions
Just forgive me if I can't manage to get them on video with this shooting
Here instead we have a 1/100 Gundam
So, The minifigures! Seven characters plus bb8,
2 porg and one Mynock
The Mynock is well made and fits perfectly on the millennium, can be placed outside where you want
Intent to feed on energy like a leech
BB8 is BB8... while we have three characters from the last trilogy, Rey, Finn and an old Solo
While depicted in clothes from the classic trilogy, We have Leila, a young Solo, Chewbecca and c3po
All five humans have the classic double face, while on Chewbecca we notice the equipment
Of a crossbow with a shooting gimmick. Something always very welcome
A discreet equipment but, actually with mini figures is a bit below expectations.
The reason is always the same:
If you are the biggest and most expensive set, why not celebrate that with a Top envelope?
A top crew would have seen the inclusion of
for example, Lando Calrissian, or at least Luke Skywalker r2-d2!
At least in short of these last two In a set so all-encompassing
they would have completed what could be the classical frame.
So, as a vote for Mini-figures envelope, I can give an 8 out of 10
It gets an 8 with the nails, just because the basic staff of the millennium is present
As for the second parameter, that is the interactivity offered and the endowment
Well, here the judgment oversteps a little the mere objectivity
Yes, because from the point of view of being true to the original, we have a little everything, is missing very little
Yes, maybe the compulsory missile would have completed the equipment as for weapons,
And maybe it is the spaceship itself that does not have some kind of arsenal or interactive component.
Again. It's a question of prestige: you can feel the lack of that surplus
of those aspects capable to make the spaceship just as devastating as its cost.
The engine led at the rear, it's a practical example in my opinion but
however I grant a good grade:
8,5 out of 10: good but not excellent
The next chapter is the fun, the fulfillment during construction
What a fundamental parameter for a Lego set in this case. I must say, you must be enthusiastic
If it is true, that in engineering terms, other sets such as Technics
can hit you even more, we have to contextualize this set a minimum
A set devoted between aesthetics and structural loyalty, instead of mechanical engineering
It is clear that the number of pieces has a devastating weight in this case
7541 let's repeat it not. I can't figure out when we'll see a set of Star Wars with so many pieces
However, also the assembly even though devoted to aesthetic
Thanks to its being not symmetrical on the details, it's not monotonous
or repetitive when building it. Look here at that tomo!
Lots of steps, almost without any being particularly dubious or in which you can get messed up.
And, again, it's the biggest set ever...
In my opinion a good 9,5. It is not a 10 just because maybe other sets can be
more imaginative even if smaller.
The last parameter is Aesthetics
It is another parameter in which subjectivity has an extremely important weight and in which fidelity
to the original model is only a component.
about aesthetics in general, instead, I have a personal cavil of mine: of course the millennium falcon
can be the iconic spaceship par excellence of the star wars' universe: the protagonist!
I recognize this value without a doubt but as an aesthetic I was never impressed
like others spaceships that were capable to
Titillate my taste with their charm.
Think of the imperial cruisers or the superstar destroyer, with their fantastic ogivity
Sets that we will surely be reviewing in future.
Or, if you take even the X-Wing, spaceships in short, that aesthetically have always fascinated me.
Moreover, this is why this millennium falcon reaches a rating of 9 out of 10, due to its set's quality
and meticulousness more than from the intrinsic beauty of the Falcon.
We are therefore at the verdict.
This millennium falcon, this UCS set
75192, the biggest Lego set
is it worth a buy?
does it deserve a positive judgment?
Well you'll already know it, without doubt: Yes! So much of its charm comes
from its own dimensions and from being the most of all. If you are collectors
of the star wars series or even just LEGO collectors , you can't undergo the charm
of owninng the cutting edge of the sets, with more pieces than ever. It's a bit like the Gronchi Rosa
or like the charm of the Gioconda. If we looked only at this aspect,
But since we do not stop at the fascination of the label in the vote all the aspects converge
The most negative are those who question the crown of this set
You are the most expensive set of all, and you don't not provide me some treats?Some really elite gimmick?
You are the biggest set ever, and you don't even give me a set of mini figures that give me a greater sense of completeness?
They may seem marginal issues in the face of such grandeur. But it is precisely those aspects that undermine the foundations
based on the merit of being the spearhead of the Lego Production.
To these considerations, I only add
my subjective point of view on the aesthetics, that brings me to give a final overall vote as a 9 out of 10.
An excellence without doubt, a piece unmissable in my opinion
if you collect Lego and you are a fan of star wars
despite the prohibitive price
But for how I conceive it, better an incisive price but due to the charm to be the set most desiderable,
even if disproportionate to the offer, than scatter Your money in so many little mini-sets.
At least, it is my vision for those who collect Lego.
