Out-of-this-world kit: Star Wars - Build Your Own Millennium Falcon (Studio Fun International) [Review & Giveaway - US/CANADA]


My thoughts:  Not being a "Star Wars" fan or follower, this is a bit out of my element. However, for those who relished the out-of-world experiences brought forth by this genre, this might be just the item to tuck into your arsenal of remembrance items. Or more realistically, if you were a fan during the early years and are now a parent and want to share those experiences with your own crew, read on.....


This item is two-part in that it comprises a book with images that take you back to the episodes or movies and facts that tickle you mentally to recall. The  major part of the item or book is a kit to punch out or use a crafting knife to cut out parts to put together your model of the Falcon ship.


I didn't take the kit apart since I'm not a "kit type person" and I think I'll pass this along to a grown grandson who has his own kiddie. Perhaps they will relish the challenge to construct the ship and travel through the universe in the mind trips aboard their mini Falcon.

Is it a good kit? I don't know. But it looks like a well put together product and I can't wait to pass it along to see what my folks make out of it and how it brings them back to the future.

  1. I like the Spirograph book. I had a spirograph when I was a kid, and I had no idea it was still around.
