Deagostini Falcon. Anyone seen this?

Gotcha.

That reworked pilot was some nice work. I wasn't sure if folks had copied the UK give-away Han.
Hmm Mine was the totally 3d printed one..I think you are thinking of the custom one someone else posted pics of..

Looking at other images I think you are correct, good thing as I haven't drilled my De Agostini Quad Lasers...
Apologies to All
 
Forgive me if this has been covered, but are they going to include any landing gear and flaps with this bad boy? I haven't seen any photos of it, or is this one of those things that are still in production? I know it you will get to choose a stand at the end of the run, but I'm hoping we will be able to display it with the gear also.

I think it's pretty safe to assume that it will come with landing gear seeing as it will also have a remote control boarding ramp. The wall bracket is an option that you can purchase if you do not wish to display it on a surface.

Actually the US website says the wall mount ships free with last issue.
 
Looks like you had a case of attachment failure my friend

Waiting for Chewie!!!
yes! Should be getting my 1st parts soon...Will give me a better idea how big this is supposed to be..
 
Mine CAME!

Ok, I have to say... having seen the MR Falcon up close recently I was really hoping this would be the alternative to it... and it is! The detail on the parts is just great, and with custom painting, this is going to look fantastic.It's not EXACTLY like the MR in fine detail, but very close, best I can tell without having these pieces side by side.

I'm a sucker for the included issue magazines, and appreciate them for something fun to read. That's a lot of effort, that simply could have been and instruction booklet and done, and we'd still be happy. But these are full thought out little 'zines with fun facts, and filler.

Win.

I was actually giddy when I unfolded the blueprint tonight and saw just how hue it will be. Lol.

I'm looking forward to struggling to find a place for it. Sadly I think the wall mount may just be the only practical solution. I guess I've got two years to figure it out.
 
Is the blueprint included with the first couple of issues in the US like it was in the UK? I'm wondering if it will be available in Australia in the same issue otherwise I'll have to enlist the help of a UK member to get one for me.

Wall mount only with subscription and you do get Landing Gear as an option

When this subject came up I began to question this myself and became worried that the landing gear and ramp were "extra" options, so I went to the source and asked. So to set everyone's mind at ease, YES, THIS KIT COMES WITH LANDING GEAR AND THE BOARDING RAMP as part of the subscription. The Wall mounting plate also comes with the subscription to give you the option of displaying either on the wall or sitting on it's gear in landed position. These are included and free with your purchase! So now everyone can breathe a bit easier! The UK and US versions are both the same!

This is straight from their website:

Wall or Table Mount
The underside of your model includes concealed mounting points for the landing legs or a baseplate for an adjustable wall bracket.
