The Millennium Falcon Set from LEGO’s Ultimate Collector Series is available for 20% off.

More than 7,500 pieces make up the LEGO Millennium Falcon Set.

Amazon has beaten LEGO by slashing almost £150 off a ‘rare’ and collectible Star Wars set. In a new ‘limited time deal, the retail giant has reduced the LEGO Star Wars Ultimate Collector Series Millennium Falcon Set from £734.99 to £588.98.

This marks a discount of £146.01 or 20% and undercuts LEGO’s own £734.99 price tag. A similar deal is also available at Smyths Toys, where the set has been reduced to £588.99 and highlighted as a ‘rare’ product.

LEGO says the set is its ‘biggest ever’ Millennium Falcon, measuring 83cm x 60cm and comprising more than 7,500 elements including minifigure characters from the original and sequel Star Wars trilogies. It forms part of the iconic brand’s Ultimate Collector Series (UCS), which it says features hard-to-find, exclusive and impressively large Star Wars sets made specifically with adult collectors in mind.

Other discounted sets in the series are the LEGO Star Wars TIE Interceptor UCS Vehicle Building Set (£169.98) and LEGO Star Wars AT-ST Walker Building Set (£155.37). But the UCS Millennium Falcon Set is arguably one of the most sought after LEGO Star Wars sets, with removable hull panels offering access to its detailed interior and iconic Star Wars scenes.

A main hold with a seating area, a Dejarik holographic game, a combat remote training helmet, an engineering station with a turning minifigure seat, and a doorway construction with passageway decoration complete the ship. A four-minifigure cockpit with a detachable canopy, interchangeable sensor dishes, upper and lower quad laser cannons, seven landing legs, and a lowering boarding ramp are just a few of its exterior features.

There’s also a gunnery station complete with a minifigure gunner’s seat and a detachable hull panel with a fully rotating quad laser cannon, while an additional quad laser cannon is mounted on the underside. The LEGO Star Wars Ultimate Collector Series Millennium Falcon Set has achieved a 4.6-star rating from Amazon customers after more than 570 reviews.

One person referred to “the best LEGO set ever created” and “without a doubt, my favorite set ever created.” I have no fault with LEGO for allowing it to continue its active lifestyle and foravoiding retiring it for so long. Although it is enormous, the details and appearance are stunning. Although the construction takes a lot of time, the end result is perfect and overwhelming.

Another person referred to the item as “immensible and priceless.” It took more than a week to build, consuming both late at night and many hours.

However, the same buyer also offered some advice, saying that it was necessary to build the kit in a room that was at least as large as a dining table.
