    Sounds neat, but I already have the Millenium Falcon from TFA and I wouldn't have enough space for it. Plus $700-$800 is a TAD high for me. Plus-plus those Lego Ninjago Movie sets are draining my wallet.

    i've got my eye on the Ninjago City set: very, very interesting.

    but if this is the Millennium Falcon and it does have a full interior, i will be sorely tempted.
    it's crazy money, though. you're right. the TFA Falcon would be a much saner option.

    [in desperate need of a sanity check] : o p

    I thinking of getting a overdraft much safer then organ donation :p
    & I will probably hunt down a Lego store just to get a photo of it.
    Having seen that Ninjago City set I hope you are ether very strong or have friends to help move it as it comes in a huge box.

    I got the Destiny's Bounty this last weekend. (Plus a couple other sets.) Other than maybe Ninjago City, I say it's the best set this year. I highly recomend it. It's funny that you can get the Ninjago City, Destiny's Bounty, and TFA Millenium Falcon all together for MUCH cheaper.

    I also think the Han Solo movie might get a Millenium Falcon too. I have literally no proof or anything, but I think that it's definetly a possibility. There's supposed to be one or two bigger sets and the Millenium Falcon is the only one that I could see it being. Not to mention, TFA Millenium Falcon is most likely retiring soon (definetly by the time the movie comes out) and most kids and adults wouldn't being able to afford the UCS one. I could be completely wrong about that, (heck, I'd prefer them doing another Jabba's Palace/Sail Barge over that) but I definetly could see that coming.

    i like Destiny's Bounty! not sure i want to do a ship though.
    i want something my Star Wars minifigs can play on without it looking too out of place.
    Ninjago City sorta lends itself to the idea of a funky space port maybe. : D

    i hadn't even thought about toys for the Han Solo movie. huh.
    well i guess we'll find out for sure about this particular mystery set on September 1.
    either way, i am totally leaning toward getting the Ninjago City.

    Yeah, I've tried restricting myself to Lego SW only before, but it's never quite worked out. :) I haven't gotten that many Star Wars sets since June. I did build a little Scarif moc last month though!

    Also, Jangbricks has already reviewed all the TLJ sets already on his channel, so if y'all haven't gotten a close look or second opinion on the sets yet, he's the premium reviewer to fill that role!

    oh yeah, i've watched all the TLJ reviews. he didn't like the crawly walker thing at all.
    i'm still on the fence about the Star Destroyer too.

    i'd like to stay in the Star Wars parameters to avoid going nuts, but boy LEGO has some fun-looking things coming up ~ hahaha

    Feel free to message me so we can keep this chat going!

    I don't know if y'all have heard of this guy, but he makes some great MOCs and layouts. He's responsible for the amazing Kashyyyk and Scarif layout/MOCs. He also has a few TLJ sets reviewed as well:

    LEGO just twittered this:

    the bag on the right is the Death Star.
    the new Star Wars mega-set is so big it comes with its own wheels.

    oh my! : D

    Ok now this is just getting ridiculous if that Ninjago City set doesn't come like that just how heavy is this set going to be.

    well it's just shy of 2x the size of the Ninjago set, so I'm guessing it's 20-25 lbs?

    Wow every shot I see of this model is better than the last the detailing on this model looks insane.
    Also when you unpack the box you can use it as a wheelie case for your holidays (falcon 2):p

    just two more days and then we can hopefully see what it's like up close!
    whether it has a full interior is definitely the deal-breaker for me.
    but as i understand these "ultimate" builds, they're typically for display only without play features? boo.
    maybe with the +2000 brick count over the last version, they'll have done this up fancier in that regard! : D

    Unfortunetly, Jangbricks got his Lego SW TLJ set reviews taken down... even though The Lego Group had no power to do so, as he did nothing wrong and it was basically free advertising for them. Three days before they are revealed/released at that? Ugh...
