The Two Face and Riddler were Target exclusive extras with the Batmobile. I don't know if they're sold with vehicles anywhere else, but the Joker, Penguin, and Mr. Freeze were Target exclusive extras that came with the Bat Cave and they're sold elsewhere.

I hope that 4 year old play with that M.F. so much that it becomes so ingrained in his childhood memories that in 20 years he cannot walk past the Toy Section of a store without walking down the isle and feeling that comfortable nostalgia.

kids imagination + MF to cross over into his other toys ... never a real need for physical strength .. OR maybe his dad got him the toy bc the dad really wanted to play with it ?

I'm going to have to disagree. I started getting Star Wars figures when I was Three - Four and I took care of all of them and I loved playing with all my ships etc.
Sure they were all played with, not in mint condition but isnt that what toys are truly made for? To Play with, to create with, to imagine with? When I was around twelve, I gave my Quite played with and used Millennium Falcon to my seven year old cousin and he played with it another four or five years. I would never cringe to see a child get such an awesome toy because I know that's exactly why to this day I still love toys because I had them as a kid.

My dad bought me the orginal MF back in the day. I was 6. I treated it like gold and I still have it. So I'd say 4 is young, but it really depends on the kid. My son will be 4 in Jan. and I would not buy it for him because he would break it.

My son will be 3 later this month. He has quite a few Joes already, mostly vintage figs i had with broken hands and crotchs. He also has quite a few 25th and ROC figs, all without weapons. He has a Rhino, a Tiger Rat, and a couple of Operation Crimson Sabotage HISS Tanks.
He also plays with my large Millenium Falcon quite a bit. He can move it around fairly easily, though he can't lift if completely off the ground. And on occasion he's allowed to play with other Joe and SW toys. He has never broken a single toy I've let him play with. And he knows he's not allowed to play with daddy's toys, or even go into daddy's gijoe room alone.

I had SW at the 3-4 age range and I took care of mine. My younger brother, however, would destroy anything he got. I think the difference is I grew up poor so a toy was a rare event to be enjoyed while he was spoiled with anything he wanted. Teach a kid to respect his toys, clean his room, and don't spoil the child with his wants... I believe it will work out.

While I was browsing at Tru last black Friday, I saw a guy with his 4 year old son and the dad asked "would you like that Millenium Falcon?" and the kid said yeah and the dad happily picked it up.
The Millenium Falcon is really meant as a display model, I dont think its really meant for kids under 8. I almost felt bad for that Falcon going home to certain doom at the hands of a 4 year old. I dont know exactly how much it sold for on black friday but I'm sure it was still way out of my budget. And this falcon is more likely going to look like its been ambushed by a squadron of tie fighters in about 2 days after the kids get done playing with it. And left neglected and broken after the kid gets tired of it. *sigh* True enough it, ahhh, saw its share of wear-and-tear, but it was a toy!
