| She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts. The Millennium Falcon! |
Whether it be illegally blasting out of Docking Bay 94 on Tatooine or one of the hangars of the
Death Star, combatting four TIE fighter sentry ships or evading a barrage of asteroids, Han Solo's trusty souped-up Corellian smuggling vessel, the now-iconic
Millennium Falcon, always manages to get our hero captain and his passengers out of a tight squeeze.
Here's a great selection of behind the scenes images linked to the ILM model filming (as well as other curios) from 1976/77.
