I don' know if anyone has hears of them but there is a company called Code 3 Collectables, they make primarly Fire Apparatus and Police car models. Last year they made a model of a Fire Engine from the Skywalker Ranch Fire Brigade. It is part of their "Diamond Plate" series (which is larger than the usual). The ususal being 1/64th actual size where as the Skywalker Engine #1589 is 1/32. They have a deal with Lucasfilm to make more models and now they are selling a Millenium Falcon that weighs over 5 lbs. Is kinda on the high side $$ wise but if you read the descrption it sounds worth it. The address is www.code3.net then click on the SW tab.

I saw a review of the Falcon model, it was "Stellar" really a fabulous review, so probably worth the money. I've seen pics of the Skywalker FD truck, it looks really great as well, but was too high for my budget, maybe later.

Well I just received mine last week in two massive boxes. It is just 13" wide but the wrapping is good. In it's display case it looks great. It is rather heavy and they only put three legs to it. I though that the Falcon had four in Empire? Anyway it is, with my Mace Windu Master Replica the best item in my collection.

I saw it on their site. It looks really nice, though I'm not going to get that one. If I start collecting more of those, It'll be never ending. If they do the Jedi Starfighter, I'd get it. To me the Falcon is the OT icon.
