 A Magnificent MonstrosityDec 16, 2008
By L. Riffel
"Racing is life"
I don't understand the other reviewers. They 'love' this set...but then only give it four stars? Very strange. Make no mistake, it is AWESOME. The box is huge, it has dozens of bags inside with thousands of parts and the bound instruction book itself weighs several pounds. It will take an average person 20 to 30 hours to put together. Probably much more if you are helping a child. Every section is painstakingly accurate and detailed. Once finished it is far too big and heavy to 'play' with, you simply have to admire it from many angles. Even from below it is ridiculously detailed. It is the centerpiece of my guest-room (after spending too long in the living-room, according to my wife) and every time I look at it I want to tear it down and start again, it was so much fun for me...maybe next time I have a week to kill? FIVE STARS!!!!!

 A Lego Collector's DreamDec 13, 2008
By al1d8gun
I have been a Lego collector even since Lego came out with the Statue of Liberty (3450) with the limited green brinks. The Lego Star Wars Ultimate Collector's Millennium Falcon is one of the largest Lego sets out there today and I believe it is worth every penny spent! I just recently purchased this set thru Amazon.com on sale and the price has beaten most Amazon.com's completion, even Lego (MSRP $499.00 plus tax and free shipping). You may find a better prince somewhere else, as mentioned in other reviews, so shop around, but Amazon.com might be your best bet!
There was another review below that stated that stated that they, an avid Lego collector myself, received the product slightly damaged. Well, right after I placed my order thru Amazon.com, I contacted their customer service team and asked if they could add some extra packaging material to protect the product. A representative replied back stating that there were no guarantees about how the product was going to be packaged, but forwarded the note to the warehouse. I received the product a few days after I order the Lego set and it was in a large Amazon.com box that was well packaged. The product arrived undamaged.
Overall, Amazon.com took care of my collector's and has delivered the product in record time! Thank you Amazon.com!

Fun but time consumingDec 09, 2008
By Thomas Loveless
This toy was great fun, and it looks incredible done. The hours of work required are around 30 hours. This of course is after sorting all the pieces. The only down side to this set is that all the extra pieces they give you are of no importance to the construction, simply accent. This isn't good when you have a rotating joint or hinge that needs to be placed on an item to make it work. I highly recommend clearing a large clean area for construction and keeping younger kids and pets out of the vicinity, or face frustration of losing that one piece that makes all the difference.

Needs patience and a level of maturity to assemblyJan 08, 2012
By JustFish
"JustFish"
My son used his own money to buy this set when he was 13. He decided to open and assemble it instead of treating it as a collector investment. Since then he has disassembled and reassembled the set about 4 times. One of the builds he made a stop motion video of the complete build. So you can us this as a learning opportunity if you are creative.
You need patience and a level of maturity to do the assembly since there are a gigantic number of small parts. The assembly manual is very good if you follow it carefully. Based on where the price point is today, you are better off buying a used set if you want to actually assemble the set.

Long but worthwhileFeb 16, 2009
By James Wood
I think that anyone seriously considering getting this doesn't really need to read a review. It's lego and it's the Millennium Falcon what more needs to be said. It is BIG! It took us about 4 days over Christmas to build it so be prepared to not see the finished thing quickly, but it is worth the wait. Just make sure that you have somewhere to put it after you are done, because as I mentioned, it is big.
