Giant Millenium Falcons

Got my boy one of those 2 and a half foot Millenium Falcons for Christmas (this year I am prepared). Anyhoo I bought 3 and am selling off the other 2.
There's one for sale in Forbidden Planet for £150 and I've seen them on VATbay for £100 + postage.
I'm knocking them out at £92.50 each + postage.

I'm open to ideas on the postage as I think they might be too big for royal mail.

Cheers.

The box has 2 handles for a reason, Jimbo ;-) They are HUGE. But by far the greatest SW toy made yet, IMHO. Christmas last year was VERY good.

BTW I'm six foot three so that will give you some idea how big the sucker is. Only down side is its too big to run around going "wooooshhh" with, you might injure yourself.

Everything he said is bang on the money. I wish I could get it out and play with it more often. It is the most expensive toy I have EVER bought, and by far the coolest. Although 25th Blades is VERY close ;-)

It's not coming out of the box until Christmas so I hadn't looked inside yet. That review (which was pretty slick by TNTS standards btw) made me realise its even better that I thought it was.
I sold the spare 2 I had on the same day.

Ahem. Now, Chopper, remember the cover story - it's your sons. At least when the wife is in earshot...

No mate, this one is all mine and there is no ambiguity about that. ;-) Ended up playing with the APC and the 2 Hyena's. The little guy has Stormie (v1) in the back of the red Hyena. He thinks its cooler that way. Chip off the old block...

He also had to have the HAWK MkII down as well. He's a bit disappointed that he can't tear around with it. Tis sacred.

Stormie had trouble finding the trigger, Muton showed him how it works but fortunately 25th Blades got away. Ninja's are a lot more common than you might think. ;-)
