The millennium falcon, the big one. It took about 16 hours of build time for two people. I think the only set bigger at the time was the titanic. I’m actually not sure if the Eiffel tower has more pieces, or if it’s only physically bigger.

So they’ve issued almost half the possible numbers, current US population is actively using 1/3rd of them. I think unless there is a major drop in birth rates “several generations” is two.
