I am using OrcaSlicer/BambuStudio with the P1P. Also, the hotend currently has hardened steel gears and a 0.8mm nozzle.

Am I forced to print the lego pieces slowly? Is there a setting or function that I can tweak to slow down my printer when it reaches the tiny circular geometry?

My only advice is that it’s not worth the hassle. If you really want to though, yeah, slower is probably better.

You might be right about that. Still being able to print at that quality or near it, would look good.

Resin, 100%, is your solution. Not FDM.

As great as it is at detail, even resin won’t be perfect. Plus it won’t last if you use it because of the nature of resin.

Absolutely, but even when it looks perfect, it still won’t match the tolerances of actual Lego pieces so it won’t function as well if at all. They’re super meticulous about that stuff and amazing at it especially for a toy company!
