Like four years ago, Lego released a Millennium Falcon model that was, well, crap.

So, this spring, Lego made good, and released another Millennium Falcon, which, I think we can all agree, is much more creative and better looking, yes?

Well, this one guy got his set ... and then started adding to it. That picture above is his modified interior! Cool, huh?

 -

Notice that the modified Falcon features TWO gun stations. The interior photo here shows the interior detail of the gun-station.

Probably MOST coolest (I'm droolin') is what he did to the cockpit. In the original Lego cockpit, Chewie "sits" one peg behind Han, and they sit directly on a plate. In this modification, both Chewie & Han sit side by side, and have chairs! Hoorah!

Awesome, eh? Click here for the entire Brickshelf Gallery.

And, this helmet, is, like, all wrong, man! The blast shield was white, not black, and it had a heart-like symbol on it, instead of Rebel Alliance logo. And Falcon doesn't have orange chairs in cockpit [Wink] [Wink]

You have to ask? Hint: this isn't Star Trek.

Who is this lame LEGO-builder that portrays Luke painstakingly shitting in some sort of toilet but fails to add Chewie penetrating Leia's arm socket!! Duh?!

Why is Luke straining so hard on the toilet? He has the Force on his side, after all.

Picard: Mr. Crusher, what's our maximum speed this week?
Wesley: [checking manual] Uh, 9.4, sir.
Picard: Very good. Take us to Warp 9.8 then.
Wesley: Aye, sir. Warp 9.2 it is.

Constipation leads to anger. Anger leads to straining. Straining leads to haemorrhoids. . .

"Why is Luke straining so hard on the toilet? He has the Force on his side, after all."

Well, if he's dressed in his outfit from Tatooine, and he's on the Millennium Falcon, it must be before he went to Dagobah. So he doesn't really know much about the Force. I mean, look how hard he had to concentrate just to extract a lightsaber from where it fell into some snow.

Or maybe the Force is the whole problem. Maybe Obi-Wan is in the next room, messing with him.

Mabye Han just taped some plastic-wrap over the toilet as a joke for the dumb kid from tatooine.


Really, I recall when building things from Lego required some imagination: now it's just a really poor model kit at best with so many custom pieces unique to only that particular overpriced lego set. [Roll Eyes]

A "good ol' days" about Lego. Now our generation truly has taken over the world! The sixth seal is broken.

Coincidentallistically, the Simpsons-ep I caught yesternight was about the family going to Blocko-land.

Jason:

The only unique pieces on this set are the two 1/2 canopy pieces that form the cockpit.
