Greetings and Salutations. With today’s lockdown
NO
I talking about the MCO lockdown. Ha ha ha
I Resolved tiding up my 2008 Hasbro Legacy Millennium Falcon. Yup the big ass MF or more commonly known as Big Millennium Falcon. A hefty more than 2 feet in length.
I purchased it a few years back at a bomb. With no research done, I did not realize that there were many parts missing and ended up 3D printing them. The cost of the 3D printing totaled to the price I paid for the MF. All in all I ended up paying double and I am still missing a few parts.
If I can find the pictures of the 3D printing, I will post them in another blog. But from the pictures below, the 3D printing parts are pretty evident. They are all the ones in Grey color.
The 3D printing alone took 6 months to do by a friend due to problems borrowing the original parts to copy and also through modifying to ensure they fit properly.
So if like gives you lemons you make lemonade 🍋 right, so that’s what I did. I made the best of the situation.
During this MCO lockdown that’s what I did, I made my simple display with the figures I had. I will keep adding and making it nicer as time proceeds.
Initially the plan was to have it hanging from my plaster ceiling as if it was flying, but I quickly scrapped the idea. Imagine that big ass thing falling down and that’s it.
By the way this BMF is not mine. It’s my birthday gift to my son when he was 9 years old.
So here’s what I ended up doing. This is the view from the stairs on the 1st floor of the house
These are Hasbro Black Series. Oh! Yes as like all display areas in the house you will find used bottles of perfumes around. Perfume bottles are one of my collections
Join me and together we will rule the galaxy as father and son
To hold the cockpit, compartments and create a visual flying effect, I just used straws from used pumps of shampoo bottles and Faber Castell Tack-It.
Solo in carbonite
Last but not least the hot wheels display for my lovely wife, which I will share in another blog
