5-foot Millennium Falcon - parts lists & complementary Info

[Treadwell]

Given the sharp line between black and white I'd say a missing part was there.

Great find Shamon! ... I always assumed it was a piece of the rubber tubing from the Lotus 49.
Do you think the subsequent pipe that continues under the hull shown below is also connected to that piece? Shaddows would indicate that it sits right under the hull plating. On most builds I see it connected one 'level' down.

I agree with you. I think the tip of the Kettenkrad is black is evidence that the pipe was connected to this place.

I'm sorry, I'm a bit lost there, is that the McLaren Pit? Where is that?

Yes, McLaren Pit

By investigating the place where the parts in the McLaren Pit were moved, we are confirming the appearance at the time.

 

[Shamon]

It seems that he accidentally forgot to color it.

Thank you Shamon! I think I was a bit imprecise here, I meant the other part not colored at all:

I had the impression a little bit of that part was also just slightly visible underneath the Ferrari part, but your second pic now convinced me U13b is another C12 from the McLaren and the left bit is in reality nothing at all.
I updated the collection of Unidentified Falcon Objects accordingly.

t seems that we have no choice but to believe in Bandai when it comes to lost parts.

 

[Shamon]

Here is another part that I don't understand.

Good eyes Shamon

I just realized I don't have a map that shows that angle. I'll work on one.

 

[Shamon]

Here, it looks like there are the same parts on the left and right.

For everyone's reference, what I learned from failure.

<January 16th. I made a small correction to the first image.>

Where you fail we have all failed...

Losing is just practice for winning...

And etc...

Today I did an experiment using a light. The black thing in the middle of the disc seems to have been a shadow.

 

[RealDaveWinter]

Thanks. I came to the same conclusion and used the same part that you have shown here. Somewhere in my thread I have a post about it.

I flipped mine over though, so that the lip is on the bottom making a stepped ridge. It could be another trick of the light, but to me it looks like the edge is sharper and there's a lip on the bottom.

You've been a great help in identifying various parts and solving some of the mysteries.

 

[Shamon]

I chose Panther because I wanted to use a disc of the same diameter as possible to conduct the experiment accurately.
However, considering the edge of the bottom, I think the Panther is too small.
So, this time, we conducted an experiment using Hummel. This is just an experiment, and I don't think it's correct. I think it's a glue sticking out from the side of the disc.

 

[Shamon]

There are Several parts that cannot be found in the Chieftain pit yet, but so far I have only found this.

 

[RealDaveWinter]

Wow... nice finds!
