As mentioned last month, LEGO Factory has just now been updated with quite a few improvements - including individual part pricing rather than by-the-bag pricing - among several other things. There’s a new LDD (v1.6) released, which also runs on Intel Macs, and more than 500 different bricks, including elements for trains and minifigs as well as decorated bricks. Oh, and one more important thing...

It includes an LDraw Exporter.

I haven’t downloaded and played with it yet, but I’m about to. The press release says there will be about a 60% savings over bag-based palettes.

Thanks, Kelly.

Is there a way to see what the brick selection is, that you (or anyone) is aware of? I am hoping for a wider range of bricks. (ie: introduction of bricks/colors previously unavailable in bulk or factory)

Hi Jonathan,

There didn’t seem to be a way to see the bricks but I’ve downloaded the software and the range is quite good.

Of special interest to you (and John Neal) is that they have dark red 1x2 bricks (some plates too). I did a test with about 160 of them and it came to £13.00 which is around BL prices.
