June 1, 20177 yr I think those BrickHeadz boxes look really cool, so I'll probably keep them in the box. The real question is: Do I buy every Brickheadz and collect them all or just the SW ones hmmmm.

June 1, 20177 yr So, I'm amazed to see no one discussing CM4Sci's post on Flickr... This is real, right?!? Edited June 1, 20177 yr by Richpepperell

The render looks bad and unfinished and the cockpit just looks wrong, it's the same as the two previous system scale ones which isn't accurate to the shape. The figs in the cockpit look weird and out of place, at some weird angle or something spring loaded shooters replacing two of the guns at the top? You have got to be kidding me... The biggest give away is the figures at the top, the Rey fig in the gold box is supposed to be the 1:1 scale representation, and given how big the box would be for this, she's huge. Don't fall for this obvious photoshop. Edit: I'm not saying it's fake. It IS fake. Look at how out of line the cockpit is with the connection to the main ship, it doesn't line up, it's clearly taken from a photo when the rest is a CGI render Edited June 1, 20177 yr by LordLEGOtube

It does have quite a few 2017 parts on it as well as a recolored piece only seen on the Saturn 5 rocket. However I dont think the box is. His original picture (can be seen on another forum) had a different set of minifigs that appeared to be from the Death Star.
June 1, 20177 yr Why are there two UCS seals on the side? What is going on with the radar dish that looks like it's hand-painted? And the top gun seems to be missing entirely?

But some other people are making good points, particularly the massive Rey minifigure! Edited June 1, 20177 yr by Richpepperell
June 1, 20177 yr This is the image CM4Sci posted on Reddit with the title "This is how you fake a box.". It is not real https://www.reddit.com/r/lego/comments/6ejhl4/this_is_how_you_fake_a_ucs_falcon_box/ Edited June 1, 20177 yr by nikhkin
June 1, 20177 yr Its obviously fake, just look at the poor render quality of the falcon, spring loaded shooters(!) and the cockpit, they used those window pieces for the normal MF set but not the old UCS one, why should they now? Really, this screams "fake" the very second I saw it...
June 1, 20177 yr It looks very real but something sticks out at me that makes me doubt it. Not entirely sure what though.

June 1, 20177 yr The other thing that makes it super obviously fake is when CM4Sci said "hey guys, I faked a box to show how easy it can be. Please don't believe them all"

June 1, 20177 yr Not gonna lie, I'm a little surprised that folks started calling the above image out as "fake" before reading on the subreddit that it was openly created as such. Hopefully the rumors of a Boba Fett buildable figure are, in fact, true. I would guess that it will be released after the TLJ figs, though.

I assumed as much, but wanted to try and let people know ASAP before we all spend 5 pages discussing whether or not we believe the new picture.

June 1, 20177 yr yes, lets kill this fire before it burns the thread up. this is a Fake, openly announced by it's maker to prove a point as to how easy a fake is to make. (you should see some of the other versions with more explosions! hilarious) so until something official is posted by Lego I recommend every image be treated as Fake until proven true.
June 1, 20177 yr Looking a bit further afield, any thoughts on when the Han Solo movie sets will hit shelves? The other merchandising events were/are: 2015 Force Friday September 4th 2016 Rogue Friday September 30th 2017 Force Friday September 1st They could arrive around December-January alongside the second “The Last Jedi” wave, but I find it more likely that they will have a special Disney release roughly 10 weeks before the 25th May 2018 opening (like Rogue One). That would early March 2018.

June 1, 20177 yr Lol. Putting spring loaded shooters on the UCS MF, he's got an evil sense of humour.
