Mind Games US Accessibility Statement
We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email customerservice@mindgames.ca
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside of it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers), both for Windows and for MAC users.
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to customerservice@mindgames.ca

Davvero ottimo modellino della famiglia ICONX che ho fatto fatica a trovare. Modellino molto dettagliato e leggermente più grande dei classici metal earth. Nella confezione esce anche un paio di pinzette molto utili. Come per quasi tutti i metal earth ci vuole tempo (5-6ore per me) e pazienza ma il risultato finale è ottimo. Difficoltà medio-alta se è tra i primi modellini che fai ,media se sei esperto.

My husband loved this little project. It takes time, but looks really cool!

TLDR: It’s three times bigger than the original Fascinations model of the Millenium Falcon (shown in pictures), way more detailed and looks just awesome! Buy it!This is the third Fascinations model I’ve built, and after taking on the first couple projects, I feel like I’ve gotten the “Metal Earth build process” pretty much down. First, buy
Tool Kit for Metal Earth 3D Metal Models
. No exceptions. Well, unless you already own a mini needle nose plier, a mini flat nose plier, and a mini wire clipper. In that case, you don’t need the Metal Earth ones, but they ARE fancy yellow and black! Anyway, second, look over the instructions. Take note of anything that requires rolling into a cylinder shape. If you need to roll anything, get yourself a few cylinder shape things of different sizes. A pen. A toothpick. A drill bit. A toilet paper roll. Then, come to terms with the fact that if you rush through this, it isn’t going to go well. These take time, patience, and precision. If you don’t have those three things, don’t buy this. If you have those three things and you want to have something that people look at and ask how in the world you built something so amazing, buy this! This particular model takes a few hours to complete if you are taking your time and watching a movie. The final result is amazing! Have fun!Pro-tip: If you want to add some heft to this to make it even more impressive, but really to help keep it from tipping over if a tiny breeze hits it, then add some hot glue to the hollow base/stand! I went one step further and added hot glue to the inside of the model itself before finishing it. It now weighs about 10 times as much and is rock solid.

I received the standard Millennium Falcon model (Metal Earth #MMS251) as a stocking stuffer this year, and having never put together one of these models, I found it surprisingly enjoyable (it also helped that I had a strong interest in the subject matter). The only thing I would have liked more is if it were bigger. Luckily, after doing a quick search I found this ICONX version of the Falcon, which I would guess is 3 times bigger than the standard model, and much more detailed. It can be a little tedious at times, but for those with patience the end result is certainly worth it. I would guess that in total it took me about of 4-5 hours to put together, but I was taking my time.I’m am definitely very happy with my purpose, and hope that Metal Earth comes out with more of these ICONX-style Star Wars models. My only word of caution is that I would consider this to be an “adult” model, although I’m sure some model-building teenagers would also enjoy the challenge.

My son loves these so much! It’s so fun to build these. The only thing is that it’s very intricate and delicate- therefore I am the one that ends up putting it together because my son just can’t do it. Needless to say, I don’t mind one bit putting it together.
Samuel SchneiderSamuel Schneider –
This is an excellent model and very detailed. Great size over the smaller millennium falcon ones. Fun to put together but might be difficult if you’ve never built one of these metal earth models.
MaiTai –
There’s more parts than expected
Dmitri Kazberouk –
Millennium Falcon is one of the easiest to build, but very nice looking IconX models. I did not find any problems when assembling it, all was simple and clear. I would wish there were more Star Wars IconX models (though there are 16 Metal Earth models, and some of therm are substantially more difficult to build).

This Millennium Falcon is Awesome!!! It is much bigger than expected and the details are incredible, and 3 times more detailed than the smaller original Falcon made by Metal Earth. If you want true quality and a super nice trophy show piece, THIS is IT!!!

It didn’t take as long as I thought it would. I do recommend in investing in a pair of bottle nose pliers for the tiny details. I’d buy more for a rainy day if I could.

Looks like this has been reviewed pretty well by everyone else, but I do have a tip that makes the finished model look slightly better. On the attached picture I’ve circled 4 tabs that help hold down the edges on the top fuselage piece. In the instructions these are folded in steps 10 and 11 before the top fuselage (step 8) is attached. If you wait to fold these 4 tabs until after the top fuselage is attached they help to hold the edges down.Even on Facinations web site they only have 3 of 4 of these folded like that, even they missed one (I added the photo from their web site to show which one they missed). Hope this helps.One other thing – someone was wondering about the size difference between the Metal Earth version and the Iconx version. I attached a picture that shows both versions side by side for comparison.

These are amazing models! This one is bigger than the regular version of the Millennium Falcon offered. Has much more detail. Some amazingly small parts but can be done well with patience.
D. Billings –
Not sure why Amazon wants me to review this like an article of clothing? Much less challenging than the Star Destroyer but there are a few rounded bits that are challenging. Again, it’s not a snaptite model. They’re tough. Budget a few days and take a break if needed.
John L. –
I am a glutton for punishment, so this is the first Metal Earth model I assembled. I am pleased to say that it went without a hitch, and I was done in about 2.5 hours. I would encourage others to note the assembly tips noted in these reviews particularly the tip about the 4-6 tabs on the top deck that can be used to hold the top conical fuselage section down to the decking to create a far better fit. Fine tip snips should be considered essential for this model. You will also need to create many curves — the pieces are etched to make curving the metal in the proper direction easy, but rolling the metal under a thin dowel on a work surface that has a bit of “give” works excellently for achieving perfectly even curvature.

A great stocking stuffer.

great

Smaller than I thought it would be, but it was a gift and he loved it!
Israel Andrews –
This model was great fun to build and looks great. I would give it 3 out of 5 as far as difficulty goes. Not for a beginner but with a few models under your belt definitely doable and as I’ve said great fun to put together. Can’t say enough good things about it.
Hakon Wien –
Great model, fun to build, looks excellent on the shelf
Amazon Customer –
A challenging build — there is definitely a learning curve that comes along with it. The included tweezers are helpful, but you will probably also want to use some small needle nose pliers and something round (screwdriver works) for manipulating certain parts. I couldn’t find a way to extract the pieces other than bending at the connections repeatedly (tools I had wouldn’t do the trick). The fit quality is pretty good, but you need to be very careful when folding parts, as too much bending can easily break pieces. I realized at the end that they do include some extras of the small parts, probably to compensate for this.

If you like building things from kits, and are accustomed to small parts, you’ll enjoy this. If not.. Well I’d get something less intricate. LOTS of VERY small parts. Good eyesight and small motor control a must!
Amazon Customer –
Awesome
JeremyJeremy –
This was my first metal earth experience and I think it has the potential to become a gateway model. The in-laws got me the Falcon as a gift, and I’m grateful it was the larger model and included a basic set of tweezers, b/c otherwise I think I would have been in trouble. But as it was I was able to put this together over the course of a couple of days while the kids did homework.My advice: don’t be intimidated by tiny parts. The instructions are simple and clear, to the point where just about anyone could put this together. Definitely worth a try.

J’ai commandé le faucon millénium Iconx 5061302 et j’ai reçu le simple faucon millénium 5061251. Ce n’est pas du tout la même qualité de détail et de prix.

This required a ton of time to put together especially since it was my first time building one of these kits. It was fun though. I highly recommend getting the tools they sell or at least getting some clippers, They are the most necessary tool. I tried putting it together with the tools I have laying around, but I didn’t have small clippers to remove the pieces, which proved difficult to remove by twisting without accidentally bending.
Michael Giles –
excellent and interesting model off sheet metal,…..went together very nicely!

Metal earth è sempre un buon prodotto e di qualità superiore, sopratutto per appassionati di modellismo, peccato per il imballaggio scadente…da correggere.
Mr. Snappy –
This larger version of the Millennium Falcon is everything all other reviews has already said: jeweler-tool precise with a great model at the end. The instructions are excellently drawn and presented and extra parts (plus excellent hobby tweezers) provided.The delicate and pointy-sharp metal of these models means you will not handle them after construction so if you want to display them, make sure you get a mirrored base or a display cube (with a mirrored base as well) and some form of lighting. The underside has landing gear and is just as visually interesting as the top of the ship so you can display all angles.While the metal’s finish is somewhat fingerprint resistant, don’t forget to wear gloves (the metal is impossibly sharp) and have alcohol and a Q-tip to clean the surfaces completely so they shine!

This is about the 10th iconx/metal earth model I’ve done. It was the first I had to use super glue on. You need to be very ginger when removing the exhaust pipe pieces. The finished product is amazing and is in my office next to the rest. These are ingenious inventions and I love the challenge of them and the finished model. This one was no exception.

brilliant little models. easy to put tog too.

Modellino molto ben fatto, richiede molta pazienza e precisione, ma il risultato è eccellente
Drowsy –
So incredibly satisfying to build. It took me about 6 hours, and this was my first ICONX set. With the right tools, enough patience and attention to detail, this kit will yield and incredible 3D model of the Millennium Falcon. I would definitely buy this again just to enjoy building it again. I would say, this is definitely not for beginners with Metal Earth models. To prepare for this, I built several smaller models first.

j’ai acheté ce produits pour décoré une tour d’ordinateur/vitrine et en effet le métal brille du meilleur effet sous les éclairages mais il n’y a pas 2pieces mais une bonne cinquantaine dont la plus part sont de l’ordre du millimètre et prévoir environ 4 à 5 h de montage …

I always loved putting models together as a child. The Metal Earth models have brought back the joy. The detail is awesome! Easy to follow instructions. Really enjoyed putting the Falcon together…though it did take a little longer than 12 parcects!
