'''Han Solo''' is a skilled and/or lucky intergalactic smuggler, and pilot of the ''[[Millennium Falcon]]'', frequently finding himself on the run from [[Darth Vader]] and the [[Empire]].

He bears an uncanny resemblance to [[Harold Edsel]].

==Fiction==
===''Star Wars Transformers''===
Shortly after making their famed completion of the [[Kessel Run]] in just under twelve [[Units of time|parsecs]], Han Solo and his co-pilot [[Chewbacca]] are discovered by the omnipresent Empire. Determined not to be captured so easily, Han and Chewie use one of the more recent modifications to the Falcon. Now able to split into not one, but ''two'' heavily armed attack robots, the Falcon unleashes a barrage of missile fire onto an Imperial vessel... showing Darth Vader that although she may not look like much of a threat, the Millennium Falcon sure does pack a solid one-two punch of speed and power! <ref>''Star Wars Transformers'' Millennium Falcon packaging bio</ref>

With a price on his head, Han Solo found himself the latest target of notorious bounty hunter [[Boba Fett]]. After avoiding Fett for several months, Solo was spotted on [[Coruscant]].<ref>''Star Wars Transformers'' Boba Fett ''Slave I'' packaging bio</ref>

:Only available as a 2-pack, Han Solo is packaged with [[Chewbacca]]. Fittingly, he combines with Chewie to form the ''Millennium Falcon'' with Han forming the front section of the vessel. His robot mode head is sculpted to look like a mechanical version of Harrison Ford/ Han Solo, haircut and all. Pressing in his sculpted belt buckle activates lights as well as sounds and Han Solo dialogue from the ''Star Wars'' films. He includes a small slightly articulated pilot figure of Han Solo which can sit in the cockpit in ship mode, or a thin compartment on his chest in robot mode.

:Unlike his partner Chewie, Han is mostly [[Gold Plastic Syndrome]] free. The one part on him that does suffer from it is his crotch. We know how that sounds. As it's painted the fact it's the same plastic as Chewie is hidden until it breaks. 

:Note that in the image above, Han is mistransformed—specifically, his shoulders should be flipper around and his crotch is supposed to be folded back. Again, we know how that sounds.

:Much like the original version from 2006, the 2018 ''[[Star Wars/Transformers]]'' version of Han Solo transforms into the front half of the ''Millennium Falcon'' and can once again combine with Chewbacca, whom he is packaged with. The ''Falcon's'' main cannon is made of two pistols molded after Han Solo's iconic DL-44 pistol which he used in the films. Unlike the original mold, this figure features no electronic lights or sounds. A tiny pilot figure of Han Solo is included and can ride in the ship's cockpit which ends up as a large arm-mounted cannon in robot mode.

:This figure is the only figure in the 2018 ''Star Wars Transformers'' line that has a robot head that does ''not'' closely resemble the movie character and is instead a new design that looks more like Optimus Prime than Harrison Ford.

==Notes==
* Han shot first.
*In the script for "[[Hoist Goes Hollywood (episode)|Hoist Goes Hollywood]]", [[Harold Edsel]]'s character Dash Jordon was originally named "Sam Solo" in homage to Han.
* In the ''[[Q-Transformers (cartoon)|Q-Transformers]]'' episode "[[Mystery of Smearing Salt in the Open Wound]]", [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] suggests that the best way to respond to "I love you" is by saying "I know". Everyone thought the line was very cool.
* Han was of course portrayed by [[Harrison Ford]] in the ''Star Wars'' films. [[Neil Ross]], [[Lex Lang]], [[Michael Daingerfield]] and [[Max Mittelman]] have all voiced Han in various other media. In the Japanese markets, Han has been voiced by [[Tsutomu Isobe]], [[Kōichi Yamadera]], [[Kenyū Horiuchi]], [[Toshiyuki Morikawa]] and [[Tomoaki Maeno]].
