Someone has made a Lego Millennium Falcon out of a chicken set, and now I think I’ve seen it all

Just when I believe I’ve observed everything, someone decides to transform a chicken into a Lego Millennium Falcon.
More precisely, they have fashioned the galaxy’s swiftest heap of junk utilizing a Moana Lego Hehei kit (which is adorably google-eyed and frequently available for less than $30 at Amazon). Enthusiast Switz399 shared their creation on reddit, and it’s… rather impressive, actually? Yes, it might appear slightly more floral than Han Solo’s ship usually is because of the flowers on Heihei’s foundation. Yet, it’s unmistakably the scruffy nerf herder’s aircraft. Most remarkable of all is the revelation that they seemingly utilized every single part in the box. Don’t waste, don’t want, I assume.

In addition to the design being accurate (including the challenging cockpit that protrudes at a peculiar angle), this construction adeptly captures minor yet easily-overlooked features like the circular grills at the rear and the cones on either side of the craft. There’s even a bud representing the radar dish, along with a wrench for the gun turret at the center.
As you may have inferred from the discussion title “Will it Falcon,” converting the top Lego sets available (the odder, the better) into this Star Wars emblem is a longstanding trend. For instance, someone demonstrated that you can convert a Lego pumpkin into the Millennium Falcon a few months back. Although Heihei is an unconventional selection, it certainly shares great company as a result.
Not interested in all that hassle for creating your version? No worries, there’s an official Lego Millennium Falcon of a similar scale that usually retails for considerably less than its listed price on Amazon. It might not comprise flowers and all the hues of the spectrum, but I’d argue it’s quite attractive as well.
