Hasbro Hack (1/48 Millennium Falcon)

[crackerjazz]

Hmmmm...it looks like they're right -- The diameter of the Hasbro's hull is 3 times bigger compared to the Bandai, so it's really a 1/48-scale Falcon I don't really want to modify too many details on this Hasbro -- mainly just the dish, docking rings and some sidewall parts -- I just want something recognizable as a TFA Falcon until Hasbro can release a new TFA BMF.

Wow -- how did you guys do it so easily? I'll set that aside for later.

The linear dimensions of the styrene dish are exactly three times that of the Bandai, but just look at the difference in surface area.

Hi, guys, glad you like it so far! Hi, Lee, yeah, that's the one I'm working on. At 29", It's the poor man's 32-inch Falcon If you decide to pick one up, don't confuse it with the older BMF with the big cockpit.


A little progress...
