I went to a dollar store called Dollar General and they had a cheaply made Hasbro Millennium Falcon that seems tolerable for 15mm gaming. I bought it along with some Matchbox and Hot Wheels for 3x Car Wars project flailing. This thing is thick, light and the cannon on top is just a nurnie not a separate piece. The rectangular radar dish pops off. It was $15 USD which seems steep for a ting like this but it's half the cost of a Firefly Yahtzee dice cup for X-wing so what the hey. So… what do you think sirs?

A quick paint wash and dry brush and you've got a winner. |

Looks great to me! Appears to be about the size of the old Action Fleet ones. |

For $15 USD you could buy several and butcher them into the various YT1300 and other variants, or even cut the top off and make an interior. I haven't seen one of those around here, might go looking now… |

Good find and thanks for the heads up. Off to find one for the star port. |

I'd pay $15 USD for it. I'd buy two, one to saw in half and mount to a tile for a "crashed" Millenium Falcon. Good find. |
