Isolating the relevant cut terms, we explain how the BFKL expansion can be used to construct the perturbative n-point MHV multi-Regge limit symbol from a finite number of basic building blocks. At three loops and at leading logarithmic order, two building blocks are required. These are extracted from the known three-loop six-point and seven-point symbols for general kinematics. The subleading and sub-subleading terms require two and one further building block, respectively. The latter could either be reconstructed from further perturbative data, or from BFKL integrals involving yet-unknown corrections to the central emission vertex, on whose construction we also briefly comment.
