Generation-spanning set

The new Millennium Falcon Lego set has more than 7,500 pieces, making it the biggest Lego set ever. It comes out on Oct. 1 and will sell for a whopping $800 (£650, AU$1,008).

It's unlikely many kids will have that amount of galactic credits to blow, but some grown-up fans will rejoice. Let's do some stellar window-shopping with this gallery of high-res photos.

Lego Millenium Falcon Ultimate Collector's Edition

The model includes upper and lower quad laser cannons, a boarding ramp that lowers, removable hull plates that reveal the main hold, rear compartment and gunnery station, and a cockpit that holds four Lego minifigs at a time. You choose the generation or mix them. It even comes with both versions of the Falcon's radar dish.

Flyboys

It's hard to believe giant Chewbacca can even fit in the Falcon's cramped cockpit.

Seriously, it's huge

The set comes with minifigs from both the original trilogy (Han, Leia, Chewie and C-3PO) and the newest movies (older Han, Rey, Finn, BB-8, and two porgs). It does not come with this gentleman.

New generation

That's Rey, Finn, BB-8 and a silver fox-looking older Han at the famed holo-chess board. New strategy: Let the Wookiee win.

'I love you.' 'I know.'

The Falcon even comes with a secret room for romantic clinches. Threepio looks rather surprised to catch Han and Leia in a tender moment.

The 'Force' has awakened

Rey, Finn and BB-8 planning how to buy their tickets for "The Last Jedi." Oh, maybe not.

'Fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy'

Go ahead, set a new record for the Kessel Run with the ship Lando Calrissian called the "fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy."

Never tell me the odds

What's that Han Solo famously said about his ship? "She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, kid. I've made a lot of special modifications myself." Take that, Luke. 

And one of those modifications -- the hidden blaster cannon -- is alive and well on Lego's model! You slide a panel aside to reveal it.

Finn-ished?

Let's hope Finn doesn't get space-sick. He's flying at a nausea-inducing angle here.

Coming in for a landing

A previous giant Millennium Falcon set was released in 2007, but 10 years later, this version has more details and 2,300 more pieces.

The Falcon flies

Here's a top view of the ship. There's a lot going on underneath! According to Lego, just the rear compartment "features the engine room with hyperdrive and console, two doorways, hidden floor compartment, two escape pod hatches, engineering console and an access ladder to the gunnery station."

Meet the crew

Here's a closeup of the minifigs that come with the set -- Rey, Finn, older Han, young Han, Leia and Chewie. (Older Han is a silver fox, he doesn't need any Grecian Formula.)

If you turn Leia and young Han's heads around, they come with extra faces wearing breathing apparatus, as they wore in the space slug (Exogorth, to be precise) scene from "The Empire Strikes Back."

Beware of the mynock

This little fellow is a mynock, a creature that first appeared in "The Empire Strikes Back," and which can be bad news for starship captains because it likes to chew through power cables. One comes with the set, so watch out and don't let him get hungry.

Lock and load

Never fear, Rebels, the Falcon has your back. Here's a look at the gunnery station on the set.

'Ultimate' indeed

The set boasts more than 7,500 pieces, making it the biggest set ever made by Lego. Sure, $800 is a lot of cash. But remember what Darth Vader said: "I want that ship, not excuses!"

Wheels up

The set is so big, Lego stores will put wheels on the box so you can push it out of the mall. How else would you get it back to your home planet?

I Got an Early Look at Intel's Glass Packaging Tech for Faster Chips
Rahul Manepalli, right, Intel's module engineering leader, shows a glass substrate panel before it's sliced into the small rectangles that will be bonded to the undersides of hundreds of test processors. The technology, shown here at Intel's CH8 facility in Chandler, Arizona, stands to improve performance and power consumption of advanced processors arriving later this decade. Glass substrates should permit physically larger processors comprised of several small "chiplets" for AI and data center work, but Intel expects they'll trickle down to PCs, too.
