 Millennium Falcon - Star Wars Wiki
De Millennium Falcon was het legendarische schip van Han Solo dat dankzij de avonturen van Captain Solo en Chewbacca een nog grotere staus verwierf.
De Falcon was bovendien veel te sterk bewapend en versterkt door Shields dan eigenlijk mocht voor een schip van die grootte.
Normaal gezien was de Rebel Blockade Runner de Falcon geweest, maar Lucas liet een nieuw ontwerp maken omdat in een Britse SF serie een schip verscheen dat sterk leek op de Rebel Blockade Runner.

 OAFE - Millennium Falcon Adventure review
Millennium Falcon Adventure is currently the most expensive set in the series.
Playskool has perfectly captured the look of the Millennium Falcon (assuming that the ship has smashed into a brick wall or something), packing the sculpt with detail right down to the exhaust ports.
Playskool could have given the Millennium Falcon a simple deco since this a toy intended for children, but they really stepped up to the plate, making the deformed ship as accurate as possible.

 Kenner Toys - Millennium Falcon
Forced to push their operation into overdrive in order to capitalize on the film's enormous popularity, they had employees working overtime building the massive wooden pattern that was needed to create the Falcon's steel production molds-- the same steel molds that would be used to produce thousands of the toys for Christmas of '79.
During the time that the Millennium Falcon was on toy store shelves, two elections for U.S. President were held; Star Wars evolved from an obscure sci-fi film into a cinematic institution; and Kenner, the modest company of Sit 'n' Spin and Easy Bake, was vaulted into the upper echelon of U.S. toy makers.
In 1995, however, Hasbro issued a new Millennium Falcon toy, which was virtually identical to the vintage model in terms of molded detail.

 Falcon
You have to remember that the inside of the Falcon is larger than the outside by at least 25%, so fitting the internal set layout into a model that looks the right size externally is, well, impossible.
The cockpit, which is often distorted in other Lego Falcon models, is one of the most difficult parts to get right, particularly if you want to make the lard butt minifigs comfortable.
Actually, in the proper external set scale the cockpit of the Falcon is too small to fit two thin people side by side, let alone the widebody minifigs, so I didn't even attempt to put two pilots chairs in it, which is why it looks perfect.

Although it could be considered to be a simulator ride, it is not a "ride" in the strict sense as there are no moving parts.
This attraction is entirely separate from the Star Wars special exhibit, and tickets to the special exhibit are not required to visit the Millennium Falcon attraction.

The Millennium Falcon is filled with exciting features that put you in the captain's seat.
This is NOT a dirty looking Falcon; it is a Falcon that looks to have just a couple of years on the road (maybe it looked like this by Episode III, but not in episode IV).
I believe this sums all the differences with the old POTF Falcon, and that this will be an enjoyable toy for children, since it effectively combines both a ship and a playset that are easy to handle (Queen Amidala's starship was also a ship and playset, but it was quite big for children to handle).
