Just when I think I've seen it all, someone goes and turns a chicken into a Lego Millennium Falcon.
More specifically, they've created the galaxy's fastest hunk of junk using a Moana Lego Hehei set (which is adorably google-eyed and often available for less than $30 at Amazon). Fan Switz399 took to reddit with their creation, and it's... pretty good, actually? Yes, it may look a bit more floral than Han Solo's vessel traditionally is due to the flowers on Heihei's base. But even so, it's unmistakeably the scruffy nerf herder's ship. Most impressive of all is the fact that they apparently used every single piece in the box. Waste not, want not, I suppose.
Besides the shape being spot on (including the tricky cockpit which sticks out at an odd angle), this build manages to capture small but easily-missed details like the circular grills at the back and the cones on either side of the craft. There's even a bud standing in for the radar dish, not to mention a spanner for the gun turret in the middle.
As you may be able to tell from the thread title "Will it Falcon," turning the best Lego sets available (the more bizarre, the better) into this Star Wars icon is a long-running trend. As an example, someone proved that you can turn a Lego pumpkin into the Millennium Falcon a couple of months ago. While Heihei is a leftfield choice, it's in good company as a result.
