                        The new FineMolds 1/72 Millennium Falcon kits are on the shelves here in Japan! 15,940 yen (about $134 USD) will get you one big suitcase-sized box full of styrene. Massive!
                        I didn't pick one up today, but if Santa isn't nice to me this year, I definitely will get one for myself. Thanks, FineMolds! Big Smile [:D]

                        Hobby Link Japan have a video clip of their order arriving. It also includes footage of one box being opened and the sprues displayed. There  is a 10.3MB .wmv file, or a QuickTime version,so better to right-click and "save target as"

                        It hurts me to see how bad he handled the parts. If I paid a total of 27000Y for that from HLJ, I would handle it with alot more care.

                        Anyway.

                        Seems like a nice kit to build, but the prizetag is as massive as the model itself. Smile [:)]

                        Haven't gotten one yet, but I hit all the local shops again this past Friday, and didn't see a single Falcon anywhere! They literally flew off the shelves!

                        Perhaps one will land under my tree here tomorrow...Smile [:)]
