Story:
While at VES '99, I asked John Knoll about hidden items found in TPM. He mentioned that he put the Falcon in Episode One, but not how you would expect it to be in the film. "I added spires and stuff on it and made it a building on Coruscant," revealed John. This was in June. After months of searching and tons of speculation - it may have been found.
Pictured above are shots from TPM showing what appears to be the Falcon without it's dish. (reference from ESB on bottom) Although it goes against the definition John gave me - this is the closest lead yet. Thanks to Necorr 1 for the submission.

Thanks to Flash for this submission and pics:
"There are actually dozen's of Falcon's hidden in the Phantom Menace. Not just one or two. There are Falcon's flying in the traffic of Coruscant, in the general shots of the Planet, and also a Falcon and an X-Wing Fighter flying in the traffic lines visible through the windows of the Jedi Council building. Also, in a few of the shots where there are multiple Droid Control Ships, the smaller background Droid Control Ships are actually Falcon's as well."
What an excellent submission! Although this is speculative, and not fact, the highlighted areas in the pictures COULD be the Falcon, couldn't they?
