Star Wars Micro Galaxy Squadron Millennium Falcon vehicle with lights and sounds
Star Wars Micro Galaxy Squadron 23cm Assault Class Millennium Falcon - Looks great but has some issues
As a huge Star Wars fan I wanted this to be a great product and at first glance it is. However when it came to playing with it there were some problems that could not be ignored. If you are keeping it in the box on display then its great.
Pros
- Looks amazing and authentic
- Has some brilliant sound and light effects
Cons
- The figures have poor detail
- Opening the top cover is difficult and you feel like you will break it
- Does not come with batteries already installed
- The landing gears fold in on themselves too easily
