Hi There! The UCS millennium falcon is brillinat, outstanding in termes of detail, but I was disappointed of the lame interior, so I build up the model from ground and adding a full movie accurate and detailed interior. It took me 4 moth to complete it. A strong base-plate was needed, because I had to remove every single supporting-beam in the core. At the beginning I had serious structural problems and the model collapsed several times. Now it's even stronger and heavier than the original construction! You can carry it with two hands.

Overview:

Some details:

I added Lego-LEDs, for the realistic look. There are lights in the gunner-station, the loading ramp, three in the cockpit, the two front floodlights and in the cargo-bay. But the biggest investment was the

"working" sublight engine. The solution is build in 100% lego no modified bricks. Total 16 Lego-LEDs (also 32 lights).

The work isn't finished. I'm still working on some details...

I hope you enjoy!

Looks fantastic! You're work on the interior is really, really nice. Great level of detail. Light add that bit extra to the model too.

Be great to see where you take it from this. :classic:

This is just fantastic !

I'm currently about two-thirds of the way through building my UCS Millenium Falcon - the superstructure is built, as is the 'skin' underneath and over the mandibles, but the inner structure is still open on the topside. Now I look at your MOC and wish that the official version had such a superb interior....!

The LEDs are also an excellent addition - great job !

The 'official' UCS MF us shaping up to be magnificent, but you have taken it to the next level.

UM, my jaw is on the floor. That is amazing, I don't own the set but I've heard the complaints, your pictures are really good, and the accuracy is stunning. This is truly impressive, 4 months!!!!! That's dedication, awesome work!

Fantabulous! You hit the nail on the head. People just love fixing this ship up because there is no interior, but too many times have people completely butchered the ship for their own purposes. You were able to keep the beautiful outside 100% intact, while the inside now has room.

Expert job! :thumbup: I couldn't possibly suggest anything better.

EDIT: Just re-read this again. You can pick it up? I would've though the thing would be immobilized, but now it's even sturdier? And it light's up too! You deserve a prize.

pardon my french but Holy Crap that thing is AWESOME, that is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. If Lego made the millenium falcon like that, I would honestly buy two. Great attention to detail. Did you watch the movie as you were building this?

Most impressive marshal_banana! :oh::thumbup:

That interrior is spot on! :wub:

Id have to say that this is one of the best Falcons Ive ever seen! :thumbup:

I really like the shots you did looking into the cockpit and also looking at Luke in his gun turret. :thumbup:

I agree with Fenris, more pics would be great!

That's amazing. I've never seen such a cool mod of an official set, it's really cool. I like the cockpit seats, and I have to say, your photography is excellent.

This is in my top 3 things I have ever seen with LEGO. You took one of the biggest and best LEGO models and made it incredibly better. Your interior is so amazingly cool. I too would love to see many more pictures. It looks like you have many hallways and rooms and I bet even a refresher in their. You need to call NASA and let them know how your sub-light engines "work" you could a make a fortune Kidding aside this is really cool.

I don't have the 10179 MF, yet but seeing this makes me want to get it. 1 question though: do you think you could post instructions or a tutorial?

It is truly a sight to behold, Kudos!

This is truly amazing! :cry_happy:

You've added tons of details to the interior, and I love it! Especially the chrome gold C-3PO near the Dejarik board game. :wub:

I've always wanted to see something like this done the the UCS Millennium Falcon. Stunning work! :thumbup:

I can't believe that I missed this. Thanks Mr.GanBit for reviving the topic! :sweet:

Hey guys. So I’m happy you like it! :classic: If LEGO would made the MF like this, it would be to expensive, probably double price. :sceptic: I’m sorry there are no instructions available, because it’s just to complex.

At the moment I’m rebuilding some interior parts (cockpit, hallway, sleeping room, machine room...) so be prepared for all new pictures in the future. Cheers!

Awesome MOD :wub:

Great work on recreating scenes inside the MF, deadon, and your photography deserves credits, great shots inside :cry_happy:

I think Smokebelch can only agree with this! I love Luke Skywalker in his turret seat and the hallway picture.

I see you put a lot of effort in the sublight engine but also the cockpit and frontlights, thats adding some great extra features!

Well done, thumbs up :thumbup:
