I would have to say that the 2004 Original Trilogy Collection (OTC) Millenium Falcon is THE BEST Falcon that was made using the original 1970s Kenner mold ( the other 2 versions are the original Kenner Falcon and the 1995 Power of the Force (POTF) Falcon). The Best features are the light up LED engines and the new authentic sound effects straight from the Star Wars movies. An improved cockpit hinge, spring-loaded rear landing gear and ramp hinge are also definite pluses. I would have given this OTC Falcon 5 stars but I didn't because of one thing: CHEAP, BRITTLE PLASTIC!!! The gunner seat, 2 ramp struts, and removable cockpit dashboard are made of poor quality dark bronze metallic plastic. When I tried to carefully install these pieces to their respective locations the tab broke off the seat, the peg broke off the strut, the dashboard cracked. No Good Hasbro!! If you're not big on originality, I suggest you get your hands on the gunner seat and ramp struts from the 1995 POTF Falcon. They are direct replacements made of better plastic but are black in color. I have a POTF Falcon purchased new and these pieces, as well as the rest of the Falcon, are in awesome condition. For the removable cockpit dashboard, your going to have to just crazy glue it, apply the stickers, install it and then never remove it again. (unlike the previous Falcons, this dashboard is installed on the upper cockpit cover instead of the lower dash so that some larger figures could fit better. It's still super cramped for 2 regular sized figures though. So there you have it. Aside, from the a few poor quality yet necessary pieces, the 2004 OTC Millennium Falcon is awesome to own. Now if you want the ultimate Millennium Falcon look for Hasbro's 2008 Legacy version. That thing is HUGE, also electronic and has tons of new features/accessories plus a Han & Chewie figures! But this OTC Falcon is still great and much cheaper alternative. Hope this helps with your purchasing decision!Read full review

It IS VERY brittle as one reviewer mentioned here-those EXACT piecestrey speak of, broke off of mine with little to NO effort. I was only bringing down the ramp and the strut piece snapped right off!! I own EVERY Falcon except for this one and I've NEVER had ANY pieces brake. Now I have to get a gunner chair and the ramp struts, I'll do as the reviewer suggested and purchase the older ones as they're probably going to be sturdier. The back hatch doesn't close all the way and I'm afraid that if I open and close it too much, the tabs will snap. It's a beautifully painted and molded ship with great detail, but the plastic is very cheap.
