10179 Ultimate Collector's Millennium Falcon is a classic Star Wars set that was released in July 2007.

Description

This was formerly the largest set ever produced by LEGO, measuring 33"(84 cm) long by 22"(56 cm) wide and 8.3"(21 cm) tall, until being surpassed by 10189 Taj Mahal (which was eventually proceeded by 75192 Millennium Falcon, an updated version of this set). It was designed to be to scale with the minifigures, unlike most other Ultimate Collector's Series sets. The model is very intricate in detail with many special SNOT (Studs Not On Top) techniques involved in the front mandibles, so the set was designed more than just a toy, but mimicking the basic Star Wars technology and architecture. The first copies of this set sold through LEGO.com received a special first edition certificate of authenticity.

Minifigures

The set includes five minifigures; Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Princess Leia,
