Minifigs and Millennium Falcon

Recommended Posts

I'm looking to make a list of minifigs of Star Wars characters that have stepped foot on or inside the Millennium Falcon in the movies (deleted scenes OK!) for a group photo in front of my 10179.

I have so far:

Chewbacca (I will probably use both designs)

Han Solo ANH

Han Solo Hoth

Han Solo Bespin

Stormtrooper

Han Solo out of Carbonite

Han Solo TFA

Luke Skywalker Tatooine

Luke Skywalker Bespin

Leia ANH

Leia Hoth

Leia Bespin

Ben Kenobi

R2-D2

C-3PO

BB-8

Rey

Finn

Kylo Ren

Snowtrooper TFA

Lando Calrissian Bespin

Lando Calrissian Battle of Endor

Nien Nunb

NOT IN LEGO FORM (That I know of):

Imperial Scanning Crew member ANH

PruneFace? (or some sort of hooded figure that walks into the Falcon in ROTJ)

Lando Calrissian (at the end of ESB)

Can you help me out with any I missed or have any suggestions to create non-existent ones like the Scanning Crew member? My copies of the original trilogy are out on loan, so I can't watch them to verify.

The imperial crew minifigures from the battle pack are basically the same as the scanning crew. Look forward to seeing the photos!

Thanks. I'm working on gathering the minifigs, the Lando's and Bespin Leia need to be acquired through Bricklink or ebay, so photos will be awhile. I also want to make a TFA radar dish for the 10179.

I missed that battle pack somehow! That crew guy is a great stand in for the scanning tech.

Thanks for that! I knew there was someone else in the Falcon cockpit. Blount should be easy to make, I have Endor trooper helmets and various tan torsos.

As Jedi-Bendu said you have the crew from Battle of Endor:

Apart from Blout ( http://4.bp.blogspot...rebels-0001.jpg) and Craken http://4.bp.blogspot...rebels-0000.jpg) who manned the two quad cannons,

there was also a unidentified navigator who stayed in the cockpit during the battle ("pressure steady" http://starwars.wiki...Rebel_navigator ).

Cracken has a minifig but Blout and navigator could be created using the bodies from 75133 (http://brickset.com/minifigs/sw690/Rebel-Trooper-Rebel-Helmet-Jetpack-(75133)) with say Owen Grady's head and hair for Blout (http://brickset.com/minifigs/jw011/Owen) and a Rebel Endor Helmet for the navigator (http://brickset.com/parts/6109676).

I think there was a deleted scene in Jedi were there was a sandstorm and everybody was getting on the Falcon. Leia had a poncho or a coat she was wearing at that moment.

EDIT: Han had a ponch/shawl too! And Leia also got some goggles.

There is a tredwell droid helping Han fix the Falcon on Hoth:

"There's got to be a reason for it. Check it at the other end."

Don't know if there is a lego version of this droid.

Also Lando creepily wearing Han's clothes at the end of ESB:

I'd wait on the Bespin Lando & Leia... Bespin Gown Leia--the minifig they made--was never on the Falcon; she was in her Hoth outfit minus the vest, with the Bespin Gown hairdo. It's possible we'll see that one within the next year or so. Lando, too; if you can't wait, just try to score his torso if it's cheaper, and use the most recent Skiff Guard Lando head (or Winston Zeddemore, due to the similar mustache) with whatever hairdo you choose (Dracula-style, slicked back, or the new Finn hair...the new Superman hair from the Dawn of Justice sets might also work for ol' Billy Dee!), and dark blue legs which are easy enough to find.

EDIT: well, forget my Lando torso advice. $47 is the cheapest I see it on Bricklink! You'd be better off getting a plain Medium Blue torso, swapping the hands for Reddish Brown, then finishing it up as I suggested with recent/easy parts... sure it lacks detail, but there's probably a decal somewhere you could print and it beats spending $47 to over $100 for relevant parts.

There were a couple Endor Rebel Troopers on the Falcon in Episode 6 if I do recall.

Those Bespin figures are really expensive.. Good luck mate.

If you want a Lando figure then you could always go for a custom. There's a very good pad printed custom which is in production at the moment.

Leia isn't as expensive but I must admit those older designs seem lacking when you put them up against something like the recent UCA Boba Fett.

Good luck with the collection!

Yes, I forgot about that droid, thanks! I could probably fab something passable out of parts.

Yes, yes they are. But this is something I really want to do, and I've sold off quite a bit of Lego recently, so it won't be too painful. Such is the hobby, anyway.

Nice ideas, I appreciate them. I will probably acquire the original figs, expensive to be sure, but such is this hobby sometimes. This photo idea is something I really want to do, and I made myself sell some other Lego items from my collection to help with this. I'm just glad I bought 10179 several years ago!

TK421 - the stormtrooper sentry who walked up the ramp to help the 'scanning crew'.

Yes, I listed an Episode 4 stormtrooper. Actually, come to think of it, there were two Stormies who were walking through the Falcon right before the Han and the gang popped out of the smuggling compartments. I think one of those stormies had the longer blaster rifle?

You dont have listed the guys who come with the current set. Tasu Leech and whoever the Kanjaclub gang guy was in the movie before the escape fight with those big ugly creatures.

They never boarded the Falcon though, they were just on Han's big freighter, weren't they?

Those guys never made it into the Falcon, IIRC. They watched it fly away.

Edit: Ninja'ed!

Lego has made the treadwheel droid in the Sandcrawler sets.

Yes, thank you! I have the parts to piece one together! I plan to place some figs in positions relative to where they were seen in the movies and see how that works out for photos (if it doesn't work, I'll just have the group in a line in front, probably in order of chronological appearance). So, I'll have Hoth Han and the Treadwell on the roof of the Falcon, TK421 and friend standing guard at the ramp, and so on.
