    my son and I have been having a blast with the Lego sets and blocks. They are so much cooler than when I was a kid.

      The little brat is only allowed to pose with the Lego model for the photo, but of course daddy bought the 1.5K Millenium Falcon for himself. :)

        Now now, you had your 5 minutes, and you nearly touched it this time! Back into the cupboard it goes. No, not the Falcon, you, Billy!

          But have a look at this picture[^]. A fricking certificate of authenticity? I mean, we are talking about the Millenium Falcon here! Did Han Solo get a certificate of authenticity from Lando when he won it in a game of Sabacc? I don't think so. Seriously...

              I really want this one[^] :D This BIG stable model measures (in inches): 33.1 (L) x 22.2 ( W) x 8.3 (H) This is it the biggest LEGO Star Wars model ever made - 5195 pieces Unfortunately its price is quite SF too :(

              I'm sure they'll do another run of that model in a few years or so.
