If you’re a Lego Star Wars fan, you’ve likely had the massive Millennium Falcon replica on your wish list for a very long time—but it’s expensive (over $800) and enormous (one of the largest Lego sets ever made). So it might stay on the wish list in perpetuity.
With that said, there are other Lego versions of arguably the most famous ship in the Star Wars universe, like this much more affordable and compact Falcon—which is 20 percent off on Amazon right now.
Lego Star Wars Millennium Falcon
This is one of three different Lego Millennium Falcons currently available. Aside from the $850 option, there’s a small one from the A New Hope era. We’re partial to this mid-size on-sale option, though: It comes in at under $150, while still being packed with details and minifigs.
It’s designed for ages nine and up, and the more manageable number of pieces means it’s easier to play with without the fear of breaking something, which can be a concern with those 18-and-up sets meant more for displaying. This model of the ship is the The Rise of the Skywalker iteration, so you won’t get a Han Solo, but it does boast five minifigs (Lando Calrissian, Chewbacca, Finn, C3PO, and Boolio) and two more droids (R2D2 and D-O).
When finished, this 1,353-piece set is 17 inches long, 12 inches wide, and 5 inches tall—and its top panels open, so you can not only see inside but also arrange your characters however you’d like. Plus, there are a lot of tiny interior details, including a cockpit that can hold two minifigs. There’s also a cargo area, navigation computer, rotating chair and hologame table, along with a hidden smuggling compartment (of course).
Director of Product Content Will Egensteiner built this set a few years ago, and he liked how the build required some commitment but not the days it would take to build the bigger Falcon. “Boosting the playability are the two missiles that fire from the prongs on the front of the ship (just make sure you keep a careful eye on where they land),” he says. “And the size makes it easier to store on a shelf on my desk at home.”
We’re not sure how long this Lego set will be 20 percent off, so if you’re looking to bring the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy home, don’t wait. And if you want to add even more ships or characters to your own personal Star Wars galaxy, we found even more Lego sets on sale on Amazon right now.
