I paid £109 for mine. I waited for it to come on offer for ages and when it did, it sold out instantly and I missed it. Then it went to end of life and I didn't want to chance it disappearing and me missing out on it so I grabbed one at full retail.

Totally worth the price

Definitely! It's a really fun build. I've only recently finished it, doing a bit in the evenings. Onto the ISS next!

I'm gutted I didn't get Saturn v so ice caves and ordered Tantive is off with the kids next week. I've not yet started my falcon due to my mancave not being built yet.

I had the chance to get one, realise I am not into space that much...not into making money from it either, so put it back down.

I find the Ghostbusters HQ more interesting. Problem with all of them are they all take up so much space and dust gets into all the nooks and crannies.

I dunno why. I'm only interested in buildings, space and cars. I don't think any of my sets are anything else!

I like UCS sets, some licences stuff, certain technics and creative. The pirates stuff don’t interest me. There are a few I want for display like the Falcon. But I don’t have the space to put it.

I'm genuinely thinking of mounting the falcon on a TV wall mount eventually

I use a compucleaner blower. Cleans all the dust out in seconds.

They had one displayed in my local lego store pre xmas.

It is deceptively massive.

I think that I may crack mine open tonight. Got a loft full of other new sets to build too but can't resist it much longer.

I see backorder on these is now end of the month.

Would have to be a cantilever one so it could 'fly'

That's awesome! Not sure I have space anywhere for a massive dinosaur though.

I have 4 sets currently in the living room! No idea where to put this!

See this is where the n+1 fine line exists between having an epic man cave level of display; instead of being seen as weird person playing with kids toys when people visit.

No problem in a lock down with visitors so build away
