    Measurements on the Argos site are.

    Size H26.7, W34.3, D6.4cm.

    That photo must be for a bigger model, or it is a very small child.

    the link you posted says - Available in November 2014 exclusively at Walmart stores and Walmart.com, the massive Star Wars Hero Series Millennium Falcon (approximate retail price of $59.99) measures over two-feet-long, and features a rotating radar dish and moving cannon.

    Text from Argos link says

    ''Take your Star Wars adventures to a whole new level with this incredibly detailed Millennium Falcon vehicle! The many features of this realistic, 2½-foot-long vehicle let you re-enact the most amazing scenes from the Star Wars Rebels series - and then create brand new ones!''

    Those other dimensions must be incorrect.

    Or could the measurements be the size of the box you get from argos with the item packed inside it?

    Reserved the Falcon in Wexford,got an email to say I reserved it but no reservation number or no text either.Never had this happen before,on the site it told me it was available for pick up on the 25th.
    Do I have one reserved or not? CheckArgos says it's out of stock now.:confused:

    Ya thats happened me before. It's not reserved if theres no number. Sometimes the site gives an option to reserve it but in fact this option has never been there and it is the site not updating.

    That happened me only three weeks ago. I went to customer service with the email and the product number and my name and she found it reserved on her system so don't give up hope.

    Eventually got a reply from Argos saying that they are discontinued,odd considering somebody posted that they are only new out (it actually says it on Argos' site)

    Calling into store later anyway so I'll ask them there.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 59 ✭✭aidole


    Hi
    I just checked for the millennium falcon and there was one in Dun Laoighre so I reserved it, if anyone would like the code please let me know.

    Sennheiser CX475 Premium Ear Canal Headphones - Black

    now €26.49, was €51.99

    Plenty of stock around too. Checkargos.

    Bought these the last time they were reduced and I am very happy with them. Had been through numerous pairs of cheap earphones but these are still going strong and have very good sound.

    Good stuff. Got these last time out and was so impressed I spent full whack on a replacement pair when I broke my others.

    Gonna grab some of these tomorrow to use as spares. Great earphones!
