What is the definitive Star Wars ship? Millenium Falcon, X-Wing or the Tie Fighter?

The Slave I, of course.

That hunk of junk: the Millennium Falcon.
Welcome to the Freaks.

Are you sure?
What about the only ship capable of hunting down the Falcon?
Oh, yeah--welcome aboard, Broad Arrow!!

tomandshell, thank you for the welcome :) And thank you also for the replies. I'm just starting out. I just placed an order for a SS Jaws, 20 Rocky and the 1/4 Endoskeleton. And I'm dreaming of the MR Star Trek Enterprise and a Star Wars ship (the reason I'm asking this question). Thanks, guys.

If you're dreaming of the MR Enterprise, then stay with MR and dream of the Studio Scale Falcon replica. I saw it at SDCC and almost cried because I have neither the space nor the money to order one. But that is the crown jewel of Star Wars ships.

If you are considering any of the Code 3 replicas, here's a shot of mine:

I would have to say that of all the Code 3 vehicles, Slave 1 is my favorite.
Tom, is that still the Photoshopped Chewbacca? :lol

I would have to say Star Destroyer.
No Star Wars ship makes as commanding of a screen presence than the Star Destroyer at the start of ANH.

The MRs are what I like but for the Star Wars ship, I think I will have to go with the X-Wing since I assume that it will be "cheaper" and it will give me time to save before its release. At over $2K, the Falcon is just too expensive for me.

Millenium Falcon
99% of the world would have no clue what the Slave 1 is.

I agree.
I was disobedient and posted my favorite ship instead of the definitive Star Wars ship, which is what he asked for. I think most of us would agree that the Falcon is the "definitive" ship in the Star Wars saga. The Slave I has always been my personal favorite ship design, but the Falcon is the most iconic and recognized--although I would argue that Luke's X-Wing is a very close second that some people would recognize before the Falcon.

I would choose the Death Star myself, because isn't it still some type of ship since they travel in it lol. :monkey1

It's funny how the Millennium Falcon is so popular, it was built and designed in like a week because they were originally going to use the Blockade Runner as the Millennium Falcon but changed their minds.
But I have to say the Millennium Falcon is very iconic.

But it can move like a ship. I think of it more as a ship than an actual space station for that one reason. If it were just a space station they wouldn't have been able to fly to Yavin 4.
I hope my girlfriend never finds out how much of a dork I am :monkey1

I still first think of X-wings when I think of Star Wars. The Millenium falcon was certainly cooler and more focused on. But it was the X-Wing that destroyed the Death Star (which is not a ship :lol ).

If it wasn't for the Millennium Falcon Luke would have died.
Remember that:rolleyes:

And if it wasn't for Fett and the Slave I, Han would never have been frozen in carbonite, Luke wouldn't have left Dagobah early to confront Vader in Cloud City, learn the truth about his father, and lose his hand. Leia wouldn't have vocalized her love for Han. Lando wouldn't have made the choice to side with the Rebellion (and it was Lando who blew up the second Death Star), Jabba the Hutt probably wouldn't have died, etc.
Darth Loki

Well if it weren't for a Tauntaun, Luke would've frozen before Han built the shelter and ESB woulda sucked!
OWNED!!!!

But if it wasn't for Ben, the Sandpeople would have OWNED Luke for a few months until he died like his Grandmother.

If it weren't for the Sandpeople, Anakin's mother wouldn't have died and he wouldn't have taken his first steps towards the Dark Side.

If it weren't for the damn Trade Federation shooting at the Naboo Cruiser, they would've never gone to Tattoine and found Anakin.

But if it wasn't for Palpatine deciding to get the Neimodians to move against Naboo, then Qui Gon and Obi Wan would of stayed on Courascant and not gone to Naboo, and therefore wouldn't have met Anakin, and there would be no Vader.

Well if it wasn't for that braid-wearing girl in the second grade who refused to give Palpy a kiss behind the reactor shed then he never would have turned evil and hatched his devilish plot--- wait a second that's not a moon, it's a space station!
Nice segue--but to get back on the track it's the Millenium Falcon.

If it weren't for R2-D2 fixing the shields of the Royal Naboo Cruiser then it would have blown up and Padme would have never made it to Tattooine. And Anakin would have gone one to great podracing fame throughout the galaxy.
Anyways, SOooo...how 'bout that Millennium Falcon Eh?

Most important...
Definitely the Falcon!

Eh, they wouldn't have killed Luke in the first movie no matter what! The Falcon was just a good way to bring Han back into the fold.

I at first thought this was a what's you favorite Star Wars ship thread but see now it's between the Code-3 releases.
I'd have to go with the Millennium Falcon as most definitive.
Now, off to make my own thread!

I dunno, it's a tough call between the X-Wing and the Falcon.
Whatever, I think Y-Wings are cooler anyway. :rolleyes:
