Just don’t call him scruffy looking.

Everyone’s favorite pilot and Rebel will be on the big screen once more in this summer’s Solo: A Star Wars Story.  Focusing on the early years of Han Solo, the film will detail how the fan-favorite smuggler befriended the Wookiee Chewbacca and Lando Calrissian, the smoothest con man in the galaxy, as well as his first encounter with the Millennium Falcon.  With trailers and posters debuting over the past few weeks, the marketing campaign has kicked into high gear in anticipation of the film’s May release date, and with that come lots and lots of toys and playsets.

 The fine folks at LEGO have provided us with a first look at one of their upcoming sets for the film, featuring the Millennium Falcon during an event that’s been a part of Star Wars lore from the very beginning: the Kessel Run.  As in, the “made in less than twelve parsecs” Kessel Run.  Check out the press release and gallery below for all the details on the impressive looking set.
