Robert8 Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 Huh? It's a moon? Or is it a plane? This won't pass review This is the whole set. I think it has some chances, but they would have to redesign it completely Quote

Is that an image he created with the LEGO logo? I wonder if they'll ding him for violating the part in the guidelines about using LEGO's logo in images. Quote

I replaced it with the official one. Quote

If this isn't approved in the review, I'm afraid they guy will kill himself. Honestly I'm a bit concerned about that myself- but I have to give the guy credit- he showed incredible determination... When I first saw the project I didn't support it... When I saw it on Facebook the first time I didn't support it. When I saw it the 10th time I still didn't support it. But somewhere around the 20th time I saw it... I decided to support it- because this guy worked hard and as a fellow Lego fan I couldn't let all his effort go to waste. I truly wish him good luck. I think had the main photo been of the plane and not the ball he would have got 10k sooner. And you know what... if they do make it... I'm buying one. Edited September 5, 2015 by BirdOPrey5 Quote
jonwil Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 As someone who really enjoyed the recent CGI-ish cartoon of The Little Price (It aired on ABC3 here in Australia but I cant find any real references to it online anywhere or any indications of where I might be able to pick up some DVDs or something unfortunately) I would definitely be interested in a Little Prince LEGO set.

Freakshow Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 I really want that golden girls set to get made! https://ideas.lego.com/projects/50814 Quote
BirdOPrey5 Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 I really want that golden girls set to get made! https://ideas.lego.com/projects/50814 This set is almost the same and is currently in review- https://ideas.lego.com/projects/98263 If that one makes it, no way this other one will, it's too similar. On the other hand if that one doesn't make it, I'm not sure why this one would either. Quote

On the other hand if that one doesn't make it, I'm not sure why this one would either. Yep. That project is pretty much doomed. The sad part is, that project was posted first. Not the one in review.

Robert8 Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 Review time! These 9 projects have entered in review in the hope of becoming official LEGO sets: It's that time again! The next review qualification deadline is coming up in just under a week: early morning Monday September 7th, 12:00 am GMT. If you have a favorite project you want to see considered in this review, it's time to get supporting and spreading the word. Projects that reach 10,000 supporters after midnight on Monday can still qualify for the Third review qualification period ending Monday, January 4, 2016. Quote
CM4Sci Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 Either Adventure Time or the cars. Rest are too big, licensed, and just don't make sense. Quote
jonwil Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 I am hoping the Stay Puft gets made, I would definatly buy one if they made it into a set (and I think they can scale it down a bit to make it viable without hurting the project too much) Its really the second most recognizable ghost in the film after Slimer so I think the sort of people who bought the Ecto would buy Mr Staypuft. Quote
dr_spock Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 I'd say Adventure Time if its license is feasible. Quote
fred67 Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 Well... out of those that got 10k, the one's I'd buy are the ones I supported - Lothlorien and Stay Puft. Both are quite big, but I don't think either one is "too" big. However, I have no hope that either one will be chosen (although I think Ecto-1 probably did pretty well, and that might be incentive to try to make Stay Puft work... even if it wasn't enough to make the Ghostbusters Firehouse work). What I think stands a chance? Yes, the cars. Given the Marble Run set made it, the "LEGO Physics" set stands a chance, although it would behoove TLG to wait and see how the LEGO Marble Run does before deciding to do this one. Of course, it'll be ages before we find out what gets selected, so they can take their time. I'm doubting Adventure Time is unlicensed. The others just don't seem likely. If I were a betting man, I'd say the Caterham Super 7 has the best odds. Quote
Robert8 Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) These are my bets: 1. Brick-Built Adventure Time Figures 4/5 2. Caterham Super Seven 5/5 3. The Modular Library 1/5 4. Lothlorien 0/5 5. LEGO Physics 2/5 6. Ghostbusters: Stay Puft Marshmallow Man 4/5 7. Hobbit-Rivendell 0/5 8. Indominus Rex 1/5 9. The Little Prince 3/5 Edited September 7, 2015 by Robert8 Quote
fred67 Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 I disagree, Robert8, about Adventure Time. Without knowing the license agreements they have, I don't see how Adventure Time gets a 4/5 chance. Minecraft has other licensees, so I don't know what the deal is (except LEGO often gets the "building toy" license), but that Adventure Time submission is ALL characters with little else, and there are already AT figures out there. I think it would be a really hard sell, although I wouldn't say it's impossible. Quote
MAB Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 This set is almost the same and is currently in review- https://ideas.lego.com/projects/98263 If that one makes it, no way this other one will, it's too similar. On the other hand if that one doesn't make it, I'm not sure why this one would either. Another option is that they roll-over the current Golden Girls idea, and then either deny both at the same time or accept to make one, with both creators as the inspiration. There are no hard and fast rules at lego ideas, they do what they like. Quote
jonwil Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 I would be very surprised if the Caterham Super 7 gets green-lit at all. Its a car most people probably haven't heard of (heck, its a car a lot of car enthusiasts may not have heard of) and its fairly large (in scale and price point) I think the Corvette has a much greater chance of being green-lit, its much more well known and it could probably be done at a better price point than the Caterham. Quote
BirdOPrey5 Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 If the 1969 Chevrolet Corvette doesn't make it they should just shut down the site... What's the point? If something so perfect can't make it to be a real set there's no point to have an Ideas platform. Quote
THERIZE Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 All those sets are doomed in my opinion. I can only see a small change for the cars and even those don't look like some set LEGO could make. But we just have to wait and see I suppose! I would love to buy those cars! Quote
LegoPercyJ Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 I'd say the little prince, cars, and physics have the best chance. AT and The library(they could make it smaller) have a good chance too. Quote
Robert8 Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 Don't expect the results of the current review anytime soon Throughout this summer, the LEGO Review Board has been hard at work determining the results of the First 2015 LEGO Review. It will be several more weeks before we're ready to share, so stay tuned It seems it's taking longer than expected, since this time there are 13 projects to review. Quote
Dr.Cogg Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 With the way ideas is, I don't think any of those will pass. Quote
fred67 Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 With the way ideas is, I don't think any of those will pass. Why? They did some random birds, why wouldn't they do the car? Quote
