    Creating a thread for our beloved piece of junk. Didn't find one to post this.
    I would like to say that I loved the new design for the MF, she looks so beatiful in white and blue. Also I found this today in an account on instagram, very interesting:

    I'm pretty confident this is not a new design, but rather a different look at the Millennium Falcon. The antenna has been retracted and "flat-packed" while the bit between the mandibles are probably cargo containers (since that is where containers are supposed to go; see this piece of concept art, for instance: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Millennium_Falcon?file=YT_freight_pusher.jpg ). My bet is that this attached container bit is the spice Han Solo will eject from the Millennium Falcon when he get boarded by an Imperial customs inspector (as per ANH backstory).

    That "leaked" promotional image of the Falcon was a fake.

    Although they have been teasing a new color palette for the Falcon.

    I don't think that it is fake. There is a Russian Disney promo calendar out there that shows similar art work but for Marvel titles that are releasing this year. It's probably a calendar to promote their entire slate.



    Some sites have been asked to remove the SOLO image. Disney/Lucasfilm typically does not do that with fan art.

    Yes, but those leaked images from the promo calendar were photos of a photo. This one's different. Until we get our first official look at the characters, these promo shots are treated as unofficial.

    I read that disney said it's fake and not real...also, unless they retconned the corellian freighter from ROTS to become the actual millenium falcon, that picture might be just the same one from revenge of the sith.

    From what I've read, Disney/Lucasfilm said it's not "their promo" stuff, but that doesn't mean it isn't real. If it was complete bunk, then they wouldn't be requesting people to take it down everywhere.

    I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out to be fake, but it looks pretty convincing to me.

    Yeah, their word is basically "We didn't make it." but that doesn't mean that a third-party marketing firm didn't make it with material provided by Disney/Lucasfilm.

    Wasn't saying that they are the same calendar. There are clearly some Russian Disney promo calendars running around. Being that we never get a look at all of the months, I am guessing that they are a set of images promoting Disney's various 2018 releases and both calendars could very well share the same images.

    Could be more cargo room. Maybe he needed to cut the weight to balance his speed and storage requirements to where he wanted them to be.

    The freighter in RotS is the Falcon. George Lucas said so himself and Wookiepedia still lists it as so.

    Could it be that the new front part was not 'chopped off' later, but instead 'added on' in this film to disguise it for some reason?

    Just a dumb thought here.
