The M. Falcon (7965)

I recently picked up the SW, M. Falcon. I was lucky enough to get one for under $100USD at Toys "R" Us. They had a promo that day. Plus it came with a free Harry Potter minifigure set (30110). Right away, when I got home, I noticed that the box was around the same size of the Queen Ann's Revenge. Yes, the Queen Anne's revenge came out awhile ago, but I got sidetracked and didn't get to work on it yet.

But the M. Falcon had more pieces, but less minifigures. The beginning of the build was a little bit bumpy, as the early pieces' connections didn't stay in one place. They swiveled around on their own.

I was rathered enchanted when I had to put there pieces for the turbine hyperdrive engine. These are the pieces normally found for hubcaps.

Then came an annoying part. I had to build a large quantity of these guys...

after building about 4 of these, I had a pretty good idea of how to build them on my own. That is, until i ran out of pieces to make more of them. Here's what i have so far...

I do like the control panels.

The fact that there's a mass of them instead of just one radar screen makes me like it that much more. That's all imma build tonight tho. I have to work on assembling some of the series 5's that i picked up the other day. OK, "some" is an understatement. =]
