Updated Millennium Falcon?

Post by dranoel » Thu Apr 10, 2008 10:17 pm

Galactic Hunter has released pics of what is supposedly an upcoming offering from Hasbro. But like they say, no toy is a toy until Hasbro officially confirms it :P

Check out www.galactichunter.com for their reports dated 4/8/2008 4:52:23 PM and 4/10/2008 5:22:12 AM to see the pics of what the updated Millennium Falcon could look like :)

Very exciting times for Star Wars fans with this release! Seeing the pictures at http://www.jedidefender.com/yabbse/inde ... =16598.480 makes me want to get it more but the price, the price at US$150 is already very scary, convert to Sing and plus markup, is it even possible to get it at $300? :cry:

I am guessing the price point at local retail would possibly be around S$400 :(

that will hurt... at $400, i m not sure local retail will bring in many pieces, will there be under supply? or the price is a turn-off that there is over supply? :?

Just got word that the BMF is retailing at $299.90, while the AT-TE is going for $199.90. What do you guys think of the prices? Fair or unfair?

lol, you probably meant the refresher (toilet).

Have noted that despite the amount of details that comes with the size, there might be some issues with the landing gear being too loose.

Anyway, regardless the price, this is one vehicle that am definitely getting.

Oh yeah, there's a rumoured battlepack that coming out too, with figures for the BMF.

Compared to US prices, it's definitely on the expensive side, but if you through in the shipping, we're better off getting from local shops. Too bad the toys are only coming out after Great Singapore Sale. I'd defiintely want to get my hands on both items :)

Just realised that not only is this going to be a huge item itself... it is going to come with Han Solo and Chewbacca figures :)

It's listed in the Official Handbook

I suspect TRU should have it. It's one of the highlights of the Clone Wars toys launch. Need to confirm....
