    ...it's just a really large toy!

  2. $500? Serious? by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 4, Funny

    It doesn't even come assembled. The price of all those mass produced pieces can't even cost half that, let alone the price you'd pay with unlimited virginity were you to actually assemble that.

      Word has it you can also build a 1:50 scale model of Mom's basement with the spare parts.

    ...that has done the Kessel Run in 8 parsecs or less.

  4. Star Destroyer by Grizpin · · Score: 2, Funny

    I'm waiting for the Lego Imperial Star Destroyer of the same scale as this Falcon.... based on specifications found online the star destroyer would be 165 feet long. How many Lego's is that?

  5. Boring by orkysoft · · Score: 1, Funny

    It looks kind of boring to me, but then again, Star Wars is kind of boring to me.

    I mean it looks like there's a lot of repetitive assembly required, with lots of similar ship sections.
