LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon enters back order LEGO.com

The month may have only just begun, but already

Star Wars is proving to still be popular on the official online store.

Anyone hoping to buy the huge

in conjunction with the October deals currently live in the US won’t be getting it until a little later in the month, as the set is now on back order.

Following a temporary stock shortage for the model in September, the 7,541-piece

won’t be shipping out with any orders until at most October 15, though this date may increase further with time.

The iconic freighter has been faithfully captured in the massive creation, with minifigures to represent the two eras of the ship, depending on which trilogy you prefer. Every inch of the build is packed with detail and to this day, it stands as one of the greatest

sets in the wide portfolio, as noted in both our in-depth review and our Top 20 list.

Thankfully, the retirement of this model has been seemingly postponed so there’ll be plenty more chances to get your hands on it straight away in future, but orders can still be made should you be happy with the belated shipping date. Alternatively, you might want to save that £649.99 / $799.99 / €799.99 for a rumoured double VIP points event later in the month, as you’ll be getting a total of 10,400 points.
