Vintage Smuggler's Run Falcon
« on: July 27, 2020, 05:13:13 AM »
Mos Eisley Customz and I were sure talking about this ship on another thread so I figured I might start a thread for it. What are your thoughts on this ship (BMF Falcon Size) for $400?



This is only available through target.com:

https://www.target.com/c/collectors-toys/-/N-54vro?AFID=HasbroCollectorSpot

and has already pre-sold out twice since they listed it last week. I am assuming more will hit the shelves the end of August. Anyone order it or plan on picking it up?

Like we was saying, this should be the 40th anniversary ESB Falcon instead of galaxy edge  ::)

Yeah that would have been better and maybe had me bite. I have the Legacy version and don't see the need for this even though I love the vintage box. I just surprises me folks are willing to pay $400 for this.

I have my Legacy version on display and every year think about using that space for other things. It was the first huge vehicle I can remember Hasbro gave us so I leave it out. I can sure see your point though. I just can't stand the thought of paying 250 more dollars for the same thing in a vintage style box.

yeah and this was the glamour shot. Those ships always get better paint job than the regular factory ones.

Guess folks will start getting theirs this month. For $400 I hope it at least sports some decent paint job.

Yeah, Bossk's Bounty and Only One Kenobi have shown their TVC Galaxy's Edge Falcon already! Crazy how early they got it! Didn't even know the UK gets it at all! I'm glad I got it 50% off back in 2009 - paid 99.99€ back then - so massive pass at $399.99.
