• Man sets out to build full-scale Millennium Falcon, interior and all

    • It’s quite an absurd thought to have a full-size, 1:1 scale Millennium Falcon parked somewhere in this realm. But soon shall be. Chris Lee is one bloke who is going to make sure that this distant fantasy will be made into reality. He has bought 7 years of hope from us in exchange for what should be a 117-foot replica of the Star Wars space vehicle. This could trigger off some serious funding if he does put work to word. But it remains to be seen
