    A minor annoyance I had just how incredibly dingy the Falcon's interior got in a relatively short period of time. I mean yeah, a decade is a decent amount of time but like... damn, what the hell did Han do it? My car is 14 years old. The interior doesn't look all that much different from when it was new.

    I wish Lando's Falcon wasn't super-shiny brand new and was already at least somewhat worn.

    Han went on a 5 month bender with Obi Wan right before he met Luke.

    During the Kessel Run, the Falcon's interior took a hell of a beating. Once Han won it from Lando, he would have had to strip back all the damaged panelling/flooring and probably couldn't be bothered spending credits on tidying up the interior. That and it would be easier access to systems to make his special modifications.

    Lando's Falcon was basically a full restoration/modification on a 80 year old ship. He must have spent a fortune turning an old wreck of a freighter into his pimped personal transport.

    A disheveled smuggler and a Wookiee living on a spaceship for a decade, hauling cargo in and out, going on and off planets of all various terrains and ecosystems.... the ship is destined to be in rough shape on the inside.

    True. Though the movie also shows it getting almost destroyed during the Kessel Run, outside and in, so it’s no stretch at all for it to look the way it did in ANH.

    The difference here — I assume — is that your car is only your car, while the Falcon is Han and Chewie's car, home, freight hauler and garage. It's no wonder it looks the way it does.

    Also, I hope your car doesn't get shot up occasionally.

    But for extra cool points you could get some of those stickers that look like bullet holes to put on it.

    I had an ‘86 Buick Le Sabre for about 12 years, and despite not using it to smuggle drugs in space, not getting shot at by space pirates and space Nazis, and not routinely dragging it through hyperspace, the interior looked much worse than Han’s Millenium Falcon in A New Hope.

    We all have very different standards of cleanliness. Han’s being different than yours is not unrealistic. He’s just…not you. He’s me.

    Here is my SOLO display. I might try and make the post Kessel Run Falcon to go along with it.

    Cool. Bring them down to eye-level (they’re too close to the ceiling), and move them slightly left so the Falcon isn’t almost touching the wall to the right, and it’ll look even better.

    Yeah, I get what you mean.

    They are actually placed at the top of my stairs and I hung them so high to leave room for another Hasbro Hero Falcon underneath. I was originally going to have the OT Falcon underneath but I think I might attempt the post Kessel Run Savareen Falcon instead.

    Got it. Maybe just bring them both a down a little bit, if you can.
