Settle a debate : Paul thinks that the First Lego Midiscale set was the Nebulon B-Frigate - a Comicon exclusive Releases.
However, the Historical Timeline of LEGO Midi-Scale Star Wars Ships
indicates that :
Millennium Falcon (7778):
Release Date: 2009
Details: This set marked the first venture into the midi-scale category for LEGO Star Wars. It featured 356 pieces and was designed to offer more detail than mini sets without reaching the size and complexity of UCS sets (Brick Fanatics) (The Brick Escape).
Imperial Star Destroyer (8099):
Release Date: 2010
Details: Following the success of the Millennium Falcon, LEGO released the midi-scale Imperial Star Destroyer in 2010, further establishing the midi-scale line
(The Brick Escape).
The Nebulon-B Frigate
Comic-Con Exclusive (2020):
Set: Nebulon-B Frigate (77904)
Details: This set was a Comic-Con exclusive in 2020, featuring 459 pieces. While it was a notable release, it was not part of a new midi-scale series but rather a one-off exclusive to the event
(The Brick Escape).
The Current Series of Midi-Scale Ships
Executor Super Star Destroyer (2023):
Set Number: 75356
Details: This marked LEGO's reintroduction of the midi-scale series. It was a significant release, renewing interest in the midi-scale format after a long hiatus (The Brick Escape).
Millennium Falcon (75375):
Release Date: 2024
Details: Another notable addition to the revived midi-scale series, confirming LEGO’s commitment to this format as reviewed in this video
Millennium Falcon (7778) and Imperial Star Destroyer (8099) were the initial midi-scale sets, laying the foundation for this category.
Comic-Con Nebulon-B Frigate (2020):
This set was an exclusive, not the beginning of a new series. It was a unique, limited-edition set and not indicative of an ongoing line
(The Brick Escape).
Revival of Midi-Scale (2023-Present):
Executor Super Star Destroyer (2023) and Millennium Falcon (2024) represent LEGO’s renewed interest in the midi-scale series, building on the original concept from 2009 (The Brick Escape).
Conclusion
Paul, the evidence is clear: the original midi-scale series began with the Millennium Falcon in 2009, not the Nebulon-B Frigate in 2020. Your argument about the Comic-Con exclusive starting a new series is a misinterpretation. The current midi-scale series resurgence began with the Executor Super Star Destroyer in 2023.
