According to wiki the “Millennium Falcon” is a spacecraft in the fictional film of Star Wars, commanded by a smuggler called Han Solo and his Wookiee first mate, Chewbacca. Well being a bit of a nerd I love all things Star Wars and indeed any Sci-Fi related merchandise.  And it seems that as long as it looks like a ”Millennium Falcon” people will buy almost anything! So without further ado I bring you…

10 – Episode 4: The Coffee Stain (source) £2,300
Seen above is an unofficial Millennium Falcon inspired coffee table that has a model of the Han Solo craft underneath its glass top. But it is not official Star Wars merchandise so it isn’t as detailed as it could have been, but still very cool indeed.

9 – Cash My Cuff links! (source) £4.99
They might look a little too large to be practical. sure, and they might well be just Micro Machines Falcons that have been altered to take the cuff-link fixture. But that doesn’t stop them from being super cool. Sadly I couldn’t find a shopping link to these amazing gold ones but the link does go to ones made from Enamel.

5 – Play it again Chewy! (source) £7,000+
Making this mind-blowing Millennium Falcon guitar Turned out to be much harder for the maker than the designer first thought.  Even after a whole month working on it he was not close, so decided to devote his weekends to finally getting it finished. And what you see above is the incredible finished item. And he is even selling them, all be it very expensive.

How do you spot a true nerd? Well tell them you have a made a modified Sega Dreamcast in the shape of a Millennium Falcon ship and watch that jaw hit the floor with copious amounts of drool coming out of their mouths. The maker of this incredible machine says that the Dreamcast’s gameport plate fitted into the side of the ship as if it was meant to be!
Sadly this is just a one-off but the maker has said he would sell it if the price was right!
