    This has to be one of my favourite images of the Millennium Falcon, on Savareen, battered after the Kessel Run and showing how it was to transform from Lando's luxury cruiser to Han's workhorse.

    On a side note, does anyone have or know where I can find a larger High resolution image of this for my desktop?

    She's certainly taken A LOT of punishment over the years... crashed and damaged here, shot at countless times, left to rot on Jakku, crashed on Starkiller, smashed through the surface of Crait and in TROS burnt out from irresponsible lightspeed skipping and crashed yet again. It's amazing that they can still get parts for the ol' hunk of junk after all this time.

    A great image of the Falcon showing damage after the Kessel Run with only the three landing legs left.

    Technically not after the Kessel run but another great image of the damaged underside of the Falcon before it's attempted landing on Savareen.

    With all these Disney Falcon crash landing it's a wonder there are enough lower turret cannons left in the galaxy!

    Funny old world really isn't it, if the falcon had looked all pristine and new in A New Hope, I don't think It would have had the same effect on me as a kid as the battered and broken one did.
    The fact that it had holes in it, scorch marks all over it and ran like a bag of crap made me want it way more than the version in Solo did when I first saw it.
    Saying that, if they were a real thing (My wife assures me they are not), I wouldn't have turned down the shiny one. :D:D

    That's the same for me, the battered, unreliable ship had loads of character which I loved as a kid and still love today!!

    I also wouldn't turn down the shiny Falcon, looks way more comfortable and reliable. A sign I'm getting old!!

    We choose the bucket of bolts over the galactillac any day because were "true" sw fans lol. Kidding. It just goes to show that Han and Lando deal with the hostile atmosphere which is the star-wars universe in very different ways. Lando uses flash charm and swagger. Han.......well, Han just uses.....Han and whatever's at his disposal leading to often much more crued results. I don't think we'd ever catch Lando telling Han if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

    This, to me, is the greatest change... no, development of the Millennium Falcon since the Kessel Run.
