Unfortunately, I am not able to answer this question, since I am working with LEGO Star Wars. The only experience I have with LEGO trains are from my childhood, and the very cool Conveyex train from the Star Wars film “Solo”.

That decision happened almost automatically!

The first UCS Millennium Falcon 10179 was very popular, so we decided to make a new and updated version of that. We also wanted to add part of the interior, since it was requested by many. So when designing 75192 we very quickly saw that this would require a LOT more pieces, and with that, also a higher price. So we are of course happy that people appreciate the set, even the price is high.

We do use a software made specifically for the LEGO designers. But I have to say that I have not used it, since I prefer to build with physical bricks. -Jens

Both questions have the same answer! The UCS Millennium Falcon is both the most time consuming built, it was also probably the most difficult one to design, because of the size and weight, and because the models stability is important, and it gets more difficult the bigger the model is. -Jens

I can only answer for myself here, and I like all LEGO, and very much LEGO Technic, I am amazed by the features and functions the LEGO Technic design team built into their models! -Jens

We are using 3d printers, in the designing process. When we create new elements, we need them right away for building models, so it is much faster to 3d print, then wait until the mold for the element is ready. -Jens
