I'm Serbia there are no clones whatsoever, and I'm fine with that. But maybe we should discuss that in another topic.

In finland, most of peoples buy lego sets for kids. Because lego alternatives are hard to find in stores. We usually have the bare bones like cobi and mega construx. But when i was kid we only had cobi and cobi was back then so hard to find. And in 2020 and later now mega construx and cobi can be found most of the big stores. But still most kids in here just want legos. And if you want something else than cobi or mega construx. You have to import it from germany most of the times. This is kind of sad to think i really wish we had more choices:/. 

AliExpress and Temu are quite popular in Spain. There are some other brands like megablocks that are available in stores, but most of Lego clones are bought directly in China here.

Agreed!

Let's focus on this set and the LEGO brand

This set Lego designer feel like Olav Kroigaard.  Gearbox distribution layout similar to 42082.  Slow functions movement but it will delivered the functions well and stable.

One thing that I personally find exciting about this set are the new triangular panels. I have a feeling they will be very useful for diffusors, winglets, etc in the upcoming 2026 sets, especially the new Supercar.

He is retired. It's probably a Markus Kossmann model.

From 42209 Topic. Post by Ngoc Nguyen:  "According to Milan's Instagram story, this set is designed by Olav, preumably Olav Kroigaard " 

He is back. Since he design 42209, high possible 42215 as well. The Gearbox layout too similar to 42082.
