75295 Millennium Falcon Microfighter: Are The Odds Against It?

Introduced in 2014, the Microfighter subtheme is the spawn of four convention exclusives released in 2012 and 2013. Intended as a small set with enough play features to entertain young fans, they ostensibly replaced the Midi-Scale subtheme that had briefly existed a few years before.

These sets were the first to introduce chibi caricatures to LEGO, a style that Tomy had utilized with its range of Super-Deformed Palm Talkers it produced for the Power of the Jedi through to Revenge of the Sith toy lines. Each set included a vehicle that displayed exaggerated features, and a minifigure pilot and came in special packaging.

When this new subtheme was introduced in 2014 it came on the back of two more of the same chibi convention exclusives.

Released as part of the first series of Microfighters in 2014, 75030 Millennium Falcon sported the features you’d expect to see on this famed flying gin palace-come-smuggling-come-Rebel spaceship, was armed with a pair of flick fire missiles, and included a Han Solo minifigure.

This new addition to the Microfighter subtheme comes six and a half years after the original, though only two years after the Sequel Trilogy-bedecked 75193 Millennium Falcon Microfighter, so – with the Microfighter subtheme already including two previous incarnations of the Millennium Falcon – is it really time for a third?

At such a small scale there’s not much room for upgrades or improvements, and LEGO hasn’t tried to make this revisited version flasher or more detailed than either of the two earlier ones. A few subtle brick changes to alter the surface elements and swapping the flick fire missiles for stud shooters is about all they’ve done.

Surprisingly, its price hasn’t budged in all this time and the piece count has gone up, making this an unusual set in the broader history of the LEGO Star Wars license – but bang on trend for the Winter Wave of 2021, which has already seen deflation in the cost of two sets – 75300 Imperial TIE Fighter and 75301 Luke’s X-wing Fighter. With its $9.99 price point and 101 elements, this set’s dollar per brick count is just under the magical $0.10, a benchmark set in 1999 when the first licensed sets appeared.

None of these changes makes the set any less – or more – desirable to the average LEGO Star Wars collector, so why has LEGO reintroduced it to the Microfighter subtheme? Accessibility is the answer. With more than half a decade between this and the last Original Trilogy version, this set’s value on secondary market sites like Bricklink and eBay has doubled – putting it out of the reach of the LEGO Star Wars fan who buys new sets with their hard-earned pocket money.

You can get this set direct from LEGO.com, Amazon.com, Target, Walmart, and Barnes & Noble now, for the recommended retail price of $9.99.
