Re: Bandai 1/72 Millennium Falcon
I built mine as I wanted it to look. A little grungier and more damaged that the research photos I have seen of the 5'er. The teensy decals are on my model, but I agree, they were almost a joke by the Model Shop crew at ILM. The decals were left over from the kit-bashed models they used for greeblies, so they tossed them all over the thing; probably to keep from going crazy from the work load and the horrendously quick delivery date for model. When you are working day and night to crank out props, crazier things than some random decals can find themselves on the props. Remember all the junk that anded up on the Mother Ship from Close Encounters!
