Millenium Falcon #75192 - Community build
Leewan started this discussion in Official LEGO® Sets and Parts

The instructions for the new UCS Falcon are now available online, which means we can now build it on Mecabricks.
However, it being the largest Lego set (yet :p), building it would take a considerable amount of time. Which is why I suggested in the Official Sets topic that several builders could build different modules of the ship, which would be imported in a separate file for the set.

The bag 1, for example, can roughly be divided into three sub-assemblies : the rear, the middle, and the front of the frame (plus some other parts), so three people could build these modules separately.

I suggest naming the modules with their step numbers, to make it easier to complete the model. Going on with the bag 1 example, the three modules would be named "75192 / Steps 1 - 31", "75192 / Steps 32 - 70", and "75192 / Steps 78 - 124". Once all the modules for the first bag are done, we would need to assemble them, add the remaining parts (steps 71 to 77 and 125 to 130), and move on the the second bag (although most of the parts of the second bag are for the landing feet, so it can be done at the same time as the bag).
I think most modules can be done separately regardless of when they're added to the model, but to make sure the set is 100% complete, I think it would be easier to follow the building order, and doing so would help preventing two different people from building the same module without knowing.

I'll take the first module of the first bag (so "75192 / Steps 1 - 31"). Now, who wants to build the other two modules and the landing feet ?

First post updated, thanks for your work guys. I hope I haven't forgotten anything, I'm a bit tired right now.
I'll add all of this to the model once I have finished the bag 4.

Thanks for compiling it all and filling the gaps Jeff! Hope you get some needed rest. 😃

We're gonna need a flex option for the rigging piece (47996) so it can attach properly. I'll shoot Scrubs a message later, unless he sees this and replies before I get there. 😛

Can you guys cheat and use tubes? They are the same size. Making this part flexible for only 2 sets means hours of work for me and I am not even sure to get something better looking than the tube assembly.

Bag 4 complete ! I'll now add the Bags 5 and 6 modules, and try to make 47996 out of tubes.

I began working on bag 5, I'll do the steps 328-360.

Bag 5 done, and everything that's been built so far has been added to the model. We're slightly below 2700 parts, but the "fake flexible 47996" increase the part count a bit. I've also updated the first post with the content of the bag 7, if anyone wants to start building these panels.

I'll start with bag 7, steps 471-499 (done) and steps 501-529 (done).

Bag 7 done!

I'll countinue with Bag 8, Steps 531-548, 550-554. (done)

Edit: I'll continue with steps 556-573 and 575-579. (done)

Bag 6, Steps 440-469 (right mandible frame)

DONE!

I'll do the decorations

Thanks for your help Sealund ! I've now updated the first post. Sealund, Masman8675, I'll need you to make the mandible frames public so I can add them to the model. In the meantime, I'll add the bag 8 modules.

There is a small detail i'm alittle confused about on step 458. The red beams won't fit if the hinges are 90 degree, see this pic.

I've rotated the hinges alittle more to fit the beams but that makes the Tile, Modified 3 x 4 with 4 Studs in Center to not fit 100%.

I'm not sure about how this will affect your assembly of the whole mandible Jeff?

I'll continue with the bottom panels, steps 581-593 and 594-606.

Edit: Both steps done.

Do as you wish. Just create groups with the different segments so I can rotate them easily if I need to, like Masman8675 did with the steps 362-391 : https://www.mecabricks.com/en/models/QeDvVoLmaBR (BTW he forgot two 3M axles. :p).

Noice ! First post and model updated ! 😄

I noticed Stas did the decoration for the Dejarik table, so I've added it to the model too. Speaking of which, Brickset have nice pictures of the minifigs in their review, could that help you making their decorations ?

Okay Jeff, I'll try to finish it this afternoon. 😉

Just added those missing 3Ms, even though I probably didn't need to. 😛 Also, I sent a message to Stas pointing out the vectors in the building instructions. Hopefully those will be of use. 😃

Here's the left mandible (Steps 397-438): https://mecabricks.com/en/models/OJV2yK5DvyQ

I'll do 728-744 and 746-771 (from bag 10).

Ah, now it starts to look like the Falcon ! 😄
At nearly 4200 parts, we're more than halfway done. Thanks everyone for your great work so far. 😉
