See A Classic Chase Scene Frozen in Time With This Millennium Falcon Asteroid Field Coffee Table

Gear Evergreen Movie Millennium Falcon about 9 years agoby Ben Pearson

Richard Riley at Tom Spina Designs crafted this cool coffee table featuring Han Solo's iconic Millennium Falcon frozen in a chase scene from The Empire Strikes Back. This was a custom job for a single client, but I'm guessing they'd be willing to make another one for the right price. Check out some pics below, and keep an eye out for the TIE Fighter hot on the Falcon's tail:

When The Empire Strikes Back debuted in 1980, fans like us marveled at the movie magic created in the asteroid chase scene.

When a client asked if we could create a custom themed coffee table based on Han Solo's beloved Millennium Falcon, we decided to make it something special, and bring the classic scene to life.

One of our artists, Richard Riley, took the licensed Hasbro Millennium Falcon toy and a Tie Fighter model kit, gave them movie style paint work and then built them this amazing diorama, made to be topped with a sheet of oval glass to create a custom piece of furniture perfect for this Star Wars fan's home theater!

The result is 60" wide, 36" deep and approximately 20" tall.

Fantastic scene from Empire which really pushed the boundaries of special effects and the score is something of legend. This is a scene that culminates why Empire is a sequel that takes everything from the first one and steps it up. Gotta love it when the TIE Fighter sparks out of control.
