Here is my review on 75389 The Dark Falcon: THE GOOD: 6 exclusive minifigures and all done well. It's a great build and the colour scheme looks great. The interior is what set this apart from other millennium falcon. THE NOT SO GOOD: It's expensive! With a 20% off discount deal, I decided to buy this now and it did not disappoint. I absolutely loved it. While this is not the first LEGO Millennium Falcon in this scale I bought, it is the first one I've built. I had a great time building this, from the base, exterior to the interior, it was fun. The top part can be a bit repetitive towards the end but other parts made up for it. It also look great, and I think the black and red colours scheme works better than the 2 tone grey look compared to the millennium falcon. The interior though, is what set this apart. There are tons of details that are really nice. The throne seat, the prison and the gaming area. I found it interesting it's a console looking like a PS5. Then we have the 6 excellent exclusive minifigures. If you told me these are real before this was announced and the Rebuild the Galaxy teaser, I wouldn't have believe you. In fact when this was first rumoured, I thought it was fake news. All 6 are done with excellent details, my favourites are definitely Jedi Vader and Beach Luke, in fact Beach Luke is so good it fits outside Star Wars too. Getting sith lord version of usual good characters is fun, although the C3PO with red eyes does look a bit creepy. Overall, it's a great set. You may have concerns on the build may be very similar to past falcons in the same scale, but I do think you still going to get a brand new experience due to the interior and also use of new lego pieces. The only downside of this set is really the price. without discount, it's NZD330, while the volume of the set is big with only good things to talk about even with inflation considered, a jump from NZD200 on the Force Awakens Millennium Falcon I bought 9 years ago still feel may be 50NZD over priced. Luckily the discount I got kinda make it more reasonable. Other than that, it's a great set that I definitely would recommend. Now I want to open and build the 2015 Millennium Falcon to place it next to this.
