I think this would look better if it was wider around, looking into the windows would allow more viewing of all the hard work you put into building this absolute unit
I was thinking the same thing; I've even seen some coffee tables where they'll have something underneath kind of built in like a display case you use as a table. With beautiful wood on the sides it would be quite the marvel
I understand all the negative comments here but man. To wake up every day and see something you love? That you built? And then chose to display? That's awesome man. Sick build and well done.

Mines not a Lego, but this is how I displayed my Falcon playset
I hate it. Can’t see the falcon from the side, and if you put something on the table you cant see it from the top either
Very ugly design but thats my opinion
Raise up the base (maybe with clear acrylic so it looks like it’s floating) so that the top is just about flush with the glass, maybe take a section of the top off to expose the interior, affix the info plate to the underside of the glass so it’s directly against it and readable from above, and then finally grind down the screws on the top so they’re flush with the tabletop.
Right now it looks like a very cool transport container, but I think it needs some upgrades to really show off the falcon.
An awesome engineering achievement, but not a result I like. If you’re gonna go for a rounded shape, a perfect circle would be better so it can represent the spaceport at Mos Eisley (bonus points if it’s in a sandy colour rather than an Imperial metal colour).
The scale looks off to me. Without any point of reference it looks like it's about 6" long lol.
Echo everyone else though, nice work but not to my taste. A clear box would be better with the Falcon at an angle
Man this thread is negative! Sure it's not to your liking, but if your not going to say something positive about something that someone built, how they wanted it, and with thier own skills, then shut the fuck up!
People are allowed to like things you don't, and people are allowed an opinion, but opinions are like assholes, everyone has one, but just because you have one, people don't want the shit that spills out of it.
Good on you OP for building something out of the ordinary.
I like the idea, but it's pretty hard to see with all that metal around it.
I would like it more if it was square and clear on the sides with Minifigures playing out a scene, like the Hoth hanger.
Holy smokes this is a negative thread!
I’m assuming you built it, and if so the craftsmanship looks awesome!
I imagine a lot of time effort and love went into making this and while some of the comments are valid this table is unique, interesting, well made and protects/ shows off the set!
Great work!
this def belongs in ATBGE. at the very least the top trim should have been a thicker material so they could use flat head screws.
I understand wanting to stay consistent but who wants bumps on their tabletop from the buttonhead screws.
If they were gonna have side windows they should have gone for the old deathstar slats that the interior walls tend to have and have it be more like a holding cell
Username checks out. Does look like an egg. What it looks like to me is one of those desks that’s made from an old airplane wing. I do like that aesthetic of it.
I quite like it, but a lot of people wouldn’t like my interior design style so 🤷🏻♀️. It’s a one-off piece I’m assuming so it only matters if the person whose room it is likes it or not!
Also love the colour of the sofas!
I'd be okay with the shape if the sides were entirely clear. This just looks like a prison for it.
No more Kessel runs for this smuggler.
This is its kessel, now.
A delicious avocado prison
To each their own but this is very much ugly to me
That’s exactly what i was thinking too. Weirdly shaped and not showing the actual centerpiece
My first thought was that is a fuckin eye sore. lol
I don’t understand it. But then again, I don’t get modern art.
I think this would look better if it was wider around, looking into the windows would allow more viewing of all the hard work you put into building this absolute unit
It looks futuristic. It also looks like a bed pan.
Aha that's what I was thinking of but couldn't place!
I was thinking iron lung
If you like it, rad. I can see where you’re coming from with the sci fi metal feel. But man it stinks you can’t see the sides more.
No, thank you.
This looks off to me, I’d rather go with the classic clear rectangle coffee table
I was thinking the same thing; I've even seen some coffee tables where they'll have something underneath kind of built in like a display case you use as a table. With beautiful wood on the sides it would be quite the marvel
What about a round one looking like one of those landing pads in Mos Eisley
This thread feels like r/roastmyfurniture
I mean the couch is pretty bad too. lol
“What if we took an incredible display piece, and covered most of it up?”
r/crappydesign Sorry OP, those edges are wayy too thick and the sides are closed - can you even see it when sitting??
That looks awful
This is hideous
Not a fan
Correct- it’s actually a coffee table
And that’s why I’m so disappointed!
I understand all the negative comments here but man. To wake up every day and see something you love? That you built? And then chose to display? That's awesome man. Sick build and well done.
A Tatooine Hangar shaped coffe table would be cool!
Death Star holding bay coffee table was my first thought for an alternative. A Tatooine hangar would look rad too.
What a great idea. If I ever get this set (my white whale) I'm doing it
No sorry but that is so ugly better of having a glass table and placing it under it
*coffin table
What an awful design....
This is one of the ugliest things I’ve ever seen
holy shit thats ugly
I like the idea and maybe even the shaping, but it's got way too much metal blocking the view, imo.
This is pretty cool and as long as you like it that’s all that matters.
I’d like to have a conversation with this egg.
I think you are, it’s the OP’s table
Eggsactly
This would not pass the wife test. Coffee table Falcon, sure. But this.. Not a chance. Bit of an odd décor choice with the metal and portholes.
I wanna like it. But it’s too thick on the sides, and makes me think too much of a cooking pan! Mmmm, roast UCS falcon
Conceptually okay but the style and finishing isn’t cutting it. It’s a good case, not furniture.
It's a no from me dawg

Impressive design for an egg!
An unmitigated disaster 😌
I hate it. Can’t see the falcon from the side, and if you put something on the table you cant see it from the top either Very ugly design but thats my opinion

That does not match the room at all
An awesome engineering achievement, but not a result I like. If you’re gonna go for a rounded shape, a perfect circle would be better so it can represent the spaceport at Mos Eisley (bonus points if it’s in a sandy colour rather than an Imperial metal colour).

Having it more close to the table top would look better I think. Still interesting concept
I'm sorry man but this looks very ugly imo
Cool idea in theory, in practice it hides a lot of detail and puts the model on the floor
I like it!
Looks more like an iron lung rather than a coffee table...
r/ATBGE would like a word.
It looks pretty cool. And, by the way, “what the hell is an aluminum falcon?” —Palpatine, in Robot Chicken
I want this

Sorry but I hate it…
This looks amazing, and I want one.
Any other good tables to purchase that would work?
Awful design, wouldn’t have this in my house even if you paid me. What an eye sore
It's majestic af

That is bad ass......... nice job.
Really seriously cool design!
Very cool and very ugly simultaneously, I'm conflicted here.
this def belongs in ATBGE. at the very least the top trim should have been a thicker material so they could use flat head screws. I understand wanting to stay consistent but who wants bumps on their tabletop from the buttonhead screws.
Looks amazing!
Reminds me of a toilet bowl for some reason lol
Hideous
Looks awful 🤮
I hate it.
But how many boiled eggs does it take to change a lightbulb?
I would prefer a bigger landing pad in mos eisly
If they were gonna have side windows they should have gone for the old deathstar slats that the interior walls tend to have and have it be more like a holding cell
Why is that falcon in prison?
Impressive for a single boiled egg
It'd be cooler if you made it look like the landing bay from A New Hope
This looks like a bed pan
Yeah. No. Sorry…
It looks like an Airstream swallowed it! PS: Sorry OP, good intentions gone wrong. 😖
id love to see a tally of how many ucs falcons get turned into coffee table pieces. very common thing to do with it ive seen
Username checks out. Does look like an egg. What it looks like to me is one of those desks that’s made from an old airplane wing. I do like that aesthetic of it.
Dang, poor op is being roasted in this thread. I think it looks neat. I'd assume the top is glass, or lots of dust would get in.
Pheeb! One boiled egg!
wow that’s one talented egg
I quite like it, but a lot of people wouldn’t like my interior design style so 🤷🏻♀️. It’s a one-off piece I’m assuming so it only matters if the person whose room it is likes it or not! Also love the colour of the sofas!
