   Along with this picture I think I recognize him as the same guy who designed the Death Star II. Am I right? Did you get a chance to talk to him? I’m curious what other LEGO sets he’s designed over the years? He’s obviously a very talented guy! Of course maybe a better question is what set is he working on now, but I’m sure he couldn’t share that!

Thanks,

Paul

Yep, that’s him! His name is Jens Kronvold Frederiksen - you can find an old interview with him here. I got talk to him for about fifteen minutes before things started (and people found out who he was:-)) and he’s a great guy - very open to answer questions, except the ‘secret’ ones:-)

He started in 1998, and he was first on Rock Raiders (he designed the large base set for that theme - Rock Raiders HQ - 4990) then he went to Star Wars and has been there ever since. His first work on the Star Wars sets was sketching the first generation Y-wing that came with Vader’s Tie fighter (7150).

Besides that, i didn’t ask for any other specific sets he worked on. I’ll be talking to him later this year for BrickJournal.
