    The amazing thing to me was learning that it’s a much smaller ship than it felt when I first saw the movies. I always thought the original Falcon Kenner toy that had the removable top (and was huge and heavy for a toy) was likely not a great scale, but it was reasonable. I mean if I really looked at even the first movie closely back then I suppose I could have extrapolated, but it felt big on the screen. Says something about size not mattering where it counts.

    But a cargo pusher like a tug boat doesn’t have to be big to be effective. That theory both blew my mind and remains canon.
