He built that thing live and with no breaks. Massive respect for building something that wasn't meant to be built in 1 sitting just to give us this review
It's a wonderful set, but is so massive! My wife bought it for me for my birthday a couple of years ago, and was a fantastic build! I had to take it apart and store it as we have no space to display it and have had a baby. When he is old enough, I will get it out again and we will build it together!
The conversation you had with yourself about ‘why have I never appreciated the Falcon before this.’ Is a conversation I had with myself when I saw the Solo version with the gorgeous blue and white paneling. That was the first time I ever saw the Falcon and thought ‘I need one of those.’
I think that version of the ship (and the set itself) are extremely underrated. I’ve never been a huge fan of the ugly ship from the OT (they literally spent the entire first movie calling it hideous) but that sleek, new paint job, escape pod in the prongs, all so beautiful
The camera doesn’t do the scale of this justice. Remember seeing this in the Lego shop for the first time and couldn’t believe just how big it was. Still can’t 😂
What a ride this must have been! Don't think I will ever own a UCS Millennium Falcon (or any UCS set for that matter) but appreciate the review nonetheless. No Lego set feels right until Jang reviews it.
Wow, I'm glad you did the review because this is the first time I've seen anything about the potential sagging. Most other reviews have been basically all praise but this is the most honest review of the set I've seen. Thanks for doing this Jang, even if it's almost a half decade late!
Yeah thats something I'm a bit worried about my Falcon. The front mandibles feel like they have sagged a bit. I think some support underneath it can go a long way in preventing any issues.
An absolute monolithic set, though I'm not much of a Star Wars fan I can still appreciate this sets sheer scale and level of detail. Glad to have been able to catch the stream when this was being built and I'm a bit sad to know you have to take it apart on stream too. Great review as always, Jang!
The first and only review I'll watch on the UCS Falcon. I'll never own it or build it but I thoroughly enjoyed watching your review and listening to your enthusiasm for it. Thank you for finally finding the space and time for the ultimate review of the ultimate set.
It truly is an amazing set. As a word of warning, the mandibles do sag a little bit. But it's due to plates loosening, as a result of weight, not the bars bending. So, I just pop the front-mid section off, and press the plates back into place, and squeeze the mandibles, every so often. I have it displayed on all feet - parallel to the table - for reference.
I can't believe you did this all in one sitting. I checked in from time to time, going to sleep, checking the next day, and you were still going, lol. You're crazy, man.
Fun Fact: This Falcon is not based on any version seen the films. So there were two main filming models in the OT. A 5 foot model and a 32 inch model. They are quite different from each other And for a few added shots for the Special Editions a CGI model was made based mainly of the 32 inch model with a few details from the 5 foot model. There's an additional version of this CGI model that was not used in the film that used in promo photos and was used in many of the refrence book instead. It's version that LEGO used based this on. It has one big detail that does not exsit on any other versions. And that is that dark grey swath on the left mandible. That's why there is those extra bits for the mandibles. The Sequel Falcon is based on the 5 foot model, so those extra bits are replicating look of the 5 foot model. Since that Specail Edition Falcon was largely based on the 32 inch model, particularly the front.
you should really do a podcast. i know it wouldn’t work that well because your content revolves around LEGO, which is a very visual toy, but your voice is so soothing and relaxing. it’s really reminiscent of Bob Ross. anyways, loved the review, glad you got around to this set!
I love mine so much. Bought it August 2021 after saving for months at my first job and now its vertically displayed in an acrylic display case. Probably my most prized possession at this point bc i never dreamed I'd ever get it
This was worth the wait, awesome review Jang! It took me almost 2 years to find a space to keep mine before I could build it, but still to this day love looking over it and all those details!
I know you made your promise but I see your desire to want to keep it and I for one will have zero problem with you breaking any promise to dismantle it. You've given us enough we can give that back to you
Nice! Despite everything that’s come after, the UCS Millennium Falcon still remains the Holy Grail of Star Wars Lego sets, at least for me. Well done Jang, on your marathon building session! The model itself looks amazing, and well worth the $800. 👍
Coincidence or not the timing is great with Celebration just ending yesterday. Awesome to see after all this time you built this. And the fact that your community and fans help you do makes it all the more better. Thanks Jang!
I have the exact same feelings as you on the Falcon compared to others like the AT-AT and capital ships. But the potential retirement date and iconic nature of this set ultimately made me finally get it. I can safely say I have no regrets :)
Thank you for taking the time to thoroughly review this set. I’ve had this on my wish list for years but sadly I absolutely do not have the room to display it. You’re right in that the cost is less of a factor than the ability to display it properly and safely. In the meantime I’ll make do with Technic sets and smaller system sets. :)
Well done Jang - I’ve been waiting years for you to do this review and as ever you delivered and more! I love this set as well and am currently on bag 14 and loving every single element of it 👍
Pretty epic and rewarding to see you ended up getting the UCS Falcon after all, Jang! And you gave us the thorough and detailed review as always so we can appreciate all the crazy details! Thanks! Once again your reviews help us vicariously own the set, for those of us who might not have the money or space for it.👍 A very cool set for sure. The size definitely helps with scale, proportions, and detail. It's very appreciated that the designers have emulated the actual model, and didn't do just random greebling.
I got mine for 600 € when Smith Toys had a discount on Lego SW sets, which is absolutely fair for this massive set. Was a blast to build and i do not regret getting it. Mine is displayed on a vertical stand though, takes up way less space like that and in my opinion also improves the viewing angle :)
A brand new review of a somewhat older set....and I like it. That smile says enough :D. I have put this on a custom made stand out of tech-Lego. Quite an expensive MOC you can find on rebrickable, but the instructions were free. Which looks perfect. I should have watched the youtube instructions though, how to careful place theFalcon on that stand..... To make a long story short: I am one of the few people who has build the same Falcon twice.
Great review. Other than finding room to display this set the biggest problems I have with it is the lack of interior spaces and the poor MiniFigure selection. For an Ultimate set at this price it should have more interior spaces and everyone at least from the Original Trilogy who was ever onboard. No Lando?
Honestly, if you want to keep it, keep it! I think everyone would understand your reasons for changing your mind. It's not a set you want to rebuild in the future. I dismantled my Star Destroyer because I needed the room but I was never that pleased with it as the Millennium Falcon which I will never take apart because it looks so much better and the build experience was far more interesting. Keep the Millennium Falcon. We can see in your face how much you love it and how much it would pain you to dismantle it. This set was a long time coming for you and you should be able to enjoy it everyday you look at it.
06:06 I agree Jang, I’m a big Star Wars fan…..but I have never understood why people love the falcon so much. It’s not the nicest of ships design wise plus it’s basically a big lorry. I mean that what it essentially functions as within the SW universe, it’s for hauling cargo illegal or otherwise from one place to another with room for the crew to sleep. The best Star Wars vehicle IMHO? The B wing, with the Slave 1 being a close second. They’re ships that are interesting and actually make a lot of sense spaceship design wise what with sections of each ship moving relative to the rest of the ship, I mean there is no up or down in space so why limit a ship to that idea? That said I have now got the UCS falcon just because it’s easier and cheaper than finding a UCS B Wing….
Get yourself a partner who looks at you the way Jang looks at the UCS Millennium Falcon. This is a really good review, great that you're unbiased about the bad bits while also stating just how much you like it and why.
As late as this review is, definitely well worth the wait. A very impressive model, and display piece worthy of any living room coffee table if you don't have the space elsewhere. The 89 Batmobile I think is the closest I'll ever come to owning any display piece of this sheer scale/size and I think that's fine.
The (mostly) vertical stands you can buy for this are totally worth it IMO. I have mine sitting next to my monitor on my computer desk. It's not an especially large desk either. The mandibles stick out some, but with no kids or pets in that room I'm not worried about it. If you plan to go that route, it's a good idea to get the stand with the Falcon. Attaching the stand to the completed model is tricky. Attaching it when it's like half built, before you start putting the upper panels on, super easy. The stand tips it up at a pretty steep angle, and a lot of the upper body panels are held on by gravity, but I have not had any of them fall off. I don't think a 100% vertical wall mount would work though, unless you modified the mounting system for the panels to be more secure.
28:19 watching you pick up the whole model pretty easily really reminded of this exact point. The Star Destroyer was just so fragile. I’m glad to hear they’ve improved since then.
Hi Jang, I believe the design of the Falcon was going to be the model of the Tantive IV originally but Lucas thought it looked too much like another ship seen in a UK Gerry Anderson show Space 1999. However during a production meeting lunch Lucas and a friend of his were in a cafe and the friend had ordered a hamburger with pickles. Long story short his friend took a bite out of the burger then put it back on the plate causing a pickle to roll over next to it. The resulting shape caught Lucas' eye and he saw the outline for the Falcon! Good job LEGO designers don't create their designs this way. Congrats on a fantastic ship.
I'd highly recommend the wickedbricks display stand for this set. I have one myself and there products are just the highest of quality. It was a little difficult to mount it at that angle but once it's on there, boy does it look good on display!
Having seen the Falcon in the LEGO store when I picked up my UCS Y-Wing four years ago, yes: it is as big as it is. It’s massive, definitely awesome to look at… but not a set that I would personally pick up. I can only appreciate the care in the attention to detail.
I'm not even a big star wars fan and I still love this set. It's easily top 5 or higher along side sets like the Bugatti and Welcome to Apocalypseburg/Ninjago city sets.
Me too, that was definitely my biggest complaint. The exterior is gorgeous, but I've always been a sucker for detailed interiors too and the lack of interior space was definitely a let down.
Depth/width imo is the most challenging dimension to consider for display. Height is nearly a nonissue, and length isn’t too bad since shelf length is easy to find. Depth however requires a lot of planning and possibly ensuring the display place has a lot of strength
It’s a good thing I’ve never really displayed mine on all landing gear I keep reading comments on the mandables sagging i haven’t seen that issue in mine I’ve had it on the efferman stand since it was available to build it good thing too
I have been waiting to see you build and review this! I have it sitting sealed in box waiting for me to find the time to build. No, I will not build in one sitting.
I have seen this model at my local Lego Store and it is stunning. What is interesting is it is the same size as the smaller shooting model ILM made for “Empire Strikes Back”. And you’re right, the detail is fabulous. In terms of the Millennium Falcon proper, I understand what you are saying but you must agree it is iconic. For me, my favourite Star Wars ships are, in order: Blockade Runner (what was the “original” Millennium Falcon); Y-Wing; and Millennium Falcon. Have fun taking it apart.
Thank you for this great review, Jang! I will probably never be able to get this set due to its size, but this review got me close what that would be like.
Before I am going to watch this: In some way this review already existed in the part of my mind and heart that has been a fan of Jangbricks ever since ending my dark ages and discovering his stuff some years ago. But now he has sealed his greatness, has put a thumbprint on himself as a Lego-reviewer by ack-tually doing it. I am quite not sure how to cope with watching it. In the most funny way I'm a bit scared. Thank you for all the work and effort giving quality and joy.
It’s better because it’s the Millennium Falcon. There were so many scenes shot in the ship throughout the last six movies that it’s almost as we’ve all flown in it. There’s a great deal of nostalgia with this ship (especially in the original trilogy) even though it’s kind of like an old station wagon, but it’s so cool.
I'd love the challenge to build this UCS Millennium Falcon! But when you do, you really need to anticipate the space where you will display this massive build! I don't have that kind of space, or the money to purchase it, but still, it looks way cool! This is definitely a grail to own, as massive as it is, you won't stop looking a it! I can still remember the very first Millennium Falcon that Lego made in 2000, it looks almost nothing like the ship we see in the movies, but had a ton of interior space! (I'm sure you can find the review on Jang's channel! 😉) Thanks for this awesome review that I never thought you would make one day, Jang!
Duuuuuudeeee this thing looks absolutely Mahoooosiveeeee 💥🧠💥🧠💥🧠💥 An absolutely amazing set. I completely understand the effect it's had on you. It's proof that some things really are more than the sum of their parts.

@@thisisthisis542 Yeah TBH, Lando had the right idea.
@@thisisthisis542 i've been saying this for years - and hope we get an updated version to coincide with the Lando show

It seems reasonably stable when it's displayed as intended, but it's definitely something you don't want to move around a lot.
@@Crzypengu try crunching the plates back together every few months as well, the actual bricks aren't bending, they're just pulling apart.
I can't believe staying off watching ANY UCS Falcon reviews has finally paid off all these years later. :D Great work as always, Jang!
A review forty-plus hours in the making. This is a day that will be long remembered.
It makes you feel like a little kid again, and that’s the magic of LEGO - congrats JANG!

Dude! Jang we miss you in the RC world. I hope all is well with you. You're still one of my favorites from the OG RC on TH-cam days.
Coincidence or not the timing is great with Celebration just ending yesterday. Awesome to see after all this time you built this. And the fact that your community and fans help you do makes it all the more better. Thanks Jang!
I have the exact same feelings as you on the Falcon compared to others like the AT-AT and capital ships. But the potential retirement date and iconic nature of this set ultimately made me finally get it. I can safely say I have no regrets :)
So torn on this one.. I technically have the disposable capital... But 800 bucks..OI!
My deepest respect! First for the pain of the price and for the pain to build this without a break 👍💪
This is the first time I watch a review from beginning to end without fastforwarding much on this UCS Falcon
Owning one of these is a dream of mine. It's just so beautiful.
Thank you for taking the time to thoroughly review this set. I’ve had this on my wish list for years but sadly I absolutely do not have the room to display it. You’re right in that the cost is less of a factor than the ability to display it properly and safely. In the meantime I’ll make do with Technic sets and smaller system sets. :)
I am so glad that the Mynock was rereleased in an advent calendar. It's really nice to have him in a cheaper set for use in playscale Falcons.
Great review Jang! I still have mine in the box. It maybe time to finally build it.
I just bought this. It's a little nerve-wracking given the price and space requirements. Great review! Really appreciate it!
Well done Jang - I’ve been waiting years for you to do this review and as ever you delivered and more! I love this set as well and am currently on bag 14 and loving every single element of it 👍

I’ve been waiting years for this video!!
Love the channel Jang
Bought one, definitely don’t have the space for it now but definitely intend to enjoy it with a son about 10-15 years in the future
Yes! So glad you got around to buying and reviewing this. I’ve been dying to hear your thoughts since it first released
A brand new review of a somewhat older set....and I like it. That smile says enough :D. I have put this on a custom made stand out of tech-Lego. Quite an expensive MOC you can find on rebrickable, but the instructions were free. Which looks perfect. I should have watched the youtube instructions though, how to careful place theFalcon on that stand..... To make a long story short: I am one of the few people who has build the same Falcon twice.
I don't think I'll ever own this or really want to, but you've got to admire the build of it. It's such a well done lego set. One of the best.
Wait a second, I'm just now watching the stream and Jang actually did this in a 44 hour stretch? That's insane. What the heck
Great review.
Other than finding room to display this set the biggest problems I have with it is the lack of interior spaces and the poor MiniFigure selection.
For an Ultimate set at this price it should have more interior spaces and everyone at least from the Original Trilogy who was ever onboard. No Lando?
Love retrospective reviews! Esp in context of newer build techniques, designs, etc.
Keep it up!!
Honestly, if you want to keep it, keep it! I think everyone would understand your reasons for changing your mind. It's not a set you want to rebuild in the future.

Jang, you made me want this and thanks to you I will make it happen. Much appreciated for tremendously detailed review. You are King!
I loved the review! Thanks for giving us this, Jang
Hey JANG! A great set combo for this is old Ben's hut because of Luke, Old Ben, and the training droid/ helmet.

As late as this review is, definitely well worth the wait. A very impressive model, and display piece worthy of any living room coffee table if you don't have the space elsewhere. The 89 Batmobile I think is the closest I'll ever come to owning any display piece of this sheer scale/size and I think that's fine.
Oh my god finally Jang I have been waiting nearly 5 years for this video to happen
Long have we waited

I just received one for my birthday yesterday from a very good friend of mine! So excited to build it!! Dream set indeed.
Literally just built this set the other week. I love it so much
28:19 watching you pick up the whole model pretty easily really reminded of this exact point. The Star Destroyer was just so fragile. I’m glad to hear they’ve improved since then.
Hi Jang, I believe the design of the Falcon was going to be the model of the Tantive IV originally but Lucas thought it looked too much like another ship seen in a UK Gerry Anderson show Space 1999.

The little point defence blaster in the bottom had to be put into this model and they did. It's incredibly simple, but it's incredibly awesome!
Great review, Jang!!! Totally worth waiting for it!!
the outside looks really good. Really good! Really GOOD!
I'd highly recommend the wickedbricks display stand for this set. I have one myself and there products are just the highest of quality.
It was a little difficult to mount it at that angle but once it's on there, boy does it look good on display!
Congrats on finally getting it. I too have it in my collection. Even the cost hurt for a bit but it was definitely worth every penny.
Loved the live stream, was an absolute beast of a building session
This set puts the ultimate in UCS. It's as close to a perfect Lego set as I've seen, but I'd never have space for something like this.
Wish I could justify that 800 dollar price tag.... But thats just too much
Having seen the Falcon in the LEGO store when I picked up my UCS Y-Wing four years ago, yes: it is as big as it is. It’s massive, definitely awesome to look at… but not a set that I would personally pick up. I can only appreciate the care in the attention to detail.
I'm not even a big star wars fan and I still love this set. It's easily top 5 or higher along side sets like the Bugatti and Welcome to Apocalypseburg/Ninjago city sets.
OMG, the sticker on the UCS plate is insanely precise! And it was applied simply by hand, no special technique (although for the second try only :) ).
I really wish this had a complete interior after seeing the AT AT
Me too, that was definitely my biggest complaint. The exterior is gorgeous, but I've always been a sucker for detailed interiors too and the lack of interior space was definitely a let down.
Jang - the true MVP of Lego reviews 🔥🔥🔥
The best place i found to display one of these is a glass top coffee table with a shelf under it
I’m working on this right now. I plan on finishing it today
Finally, the set we have all been looking forward to… Lego set closest to perfection, reviewed by the king.
ive been waiting for this video for so long
Depth/width imo is the most challenging dimension to consider for display. Height is nearly a nonissue, and length isn’t too bad since shelf length is easy to find. Depth however requires a lot of planning and possibly ensuring the display place has a lot of strength
It’s a good thing I’ve never really displayed mine on all landing gear I keep reading comments on the mandables sagging i haven’t seen that issue in mine I’ve had it on the efferman stand since it was available to build it good thing too
I have been waiting to see you build and review this! I have it sitting sealed in box waiting for me to find the time to build. No, I will not build in one sitting.
Hoping to have the space to build & display mine one day also.
Great review and dedication to building it.
I got this set for Christmas for 650 dollars very happy with the set
I have seen this model at my local Lego Store and it is stunning. What is interesting is it is the same size as the smaller shooting model ILM made for “Empire Strikes Back”. And you’re right, the detail is fabulous. In terms of the Millennium Falcon proper, I understand what you are saying but you must agree it is iconic. For me, my favourite Star Wars ships are, in order: Blockade Runner (what was the “original” Millennium Falcon); Y-Wing; and Millennium Falcon.
Have fun taking it apart.
Thank you for this great review, Jang! I will probably never be able to get this set due to its size, but this review got me close what that would be like.
Definitely worth the wait!! In terms of display options, I've seen people build coffee tables around it and use it like an accent piece...
You make me gonna buy this. I love MLFC but never had one. Fantastic review 👍👍👍👍
Before I am going to watch this:
In some way this review already existed in the part of my mind and heart that has been a fan of Jangbricks ever since ending my dark ages and discovering his stuff some years ago.
But now he has sealed his greatness, has put a thumbprint on himself as a Lego-reviewer by ack-tually doing it.
I am quite not sure how to cope with watching it. In the most funny way I'm a bit scared.
Thank you for all the work and effort giving quality and joy.
It’s happened. I never thought I’d see the day. Been waiting for a review of this since I got mine five years ago haha
The great thing about that empty void in the back section is it’s great for hiding away the alternate dish and other spare parts
It’s better because it’s the Millennium Falcon. There were so many scenes shot in the ship throughout the last six movies that it’s almost as we’ve all flown in it. There’s a great deal of nostalgia with this ship (especially in the original trilogy) even though it’s kind of like an old station wagon, but it’s so cool.
I'd love the challenge to build this UCS Millennium Falcon! But when you do, you really need to anticipate the space where you will display this massive build! I don't have that kind of space, or the money to purchase it, but still, it looks way cool! This is definitely a grail to own, as massive as it is, you won't stop looking a it! I can still remember the very first Millennium Falcon that Lego made in 2000, it looks almost nothing like the ship we see in the movies, but had a ton of interior space! (I'm sure you can find the review on Jang's channel! 😉) Thanks for this awesome review that I never thought you would make one day, Jang!
Lego should feature you on their store page! Not only do you deserve it but you have caused my bank account a lot of hastle!
Lego does have this effect of making you appreciate the shape of a ship
I had kinda given up hope you would ever do a review of it, but Im glad I was wrong !
Duuuuuudeeee this thing looks absolutely Mahoooosiveeeee 💥🧠💥🧠💥🧠💥
An absolutely amazing set. I completely understand the effect it's had on you. It's proof that some things really are more than the sum of their parts.
