LEGO Ideas The Pirate Bay Achieves 10,000 Supporters

March 5, 2019 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The Pirate Bay by Bricky_Brick is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. It reached the goal in less than a month due to it being a pretty cool looking project and it also had some media attention for it. The modular build is able to remove certain areas to access the interior. The project proposes 7 minifigures as well as a number of animals including a monkey, scorpion, shark, dog, crabs, hens, pigs, and parrots.

The Pirate Bay now joins National Museum – Rio de Janeiro, Anatomini, and The Office – NBC as the projects to reach the First 2019 Review Stage.

Comparing the LEGO Ideas The Flintstones (21316) to Submitted Project

February 17, 2019 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The LEGO Ideas The Flintstones (21316) was officially announced yesterday and there has been a divide among fans of how the set came out. A few of you have asked me to compare the original project to the one that will be coming out later this week. I did have a clear look at the project when I was at Philly Brick Fest last year and here are my thoughts.

As with other LEGO Ideas sets, there are differences between the official set and the projects as LEGO has the final say on what they want in the set. One of the things I’ve noticed is that the official set has more muted colors compared to the project which had very vibrant colors as some of the old Hanna-Barbera cartoons had. The result is somewhat bland especially on the inside of the house.

The dirt path and the Welcome to Bedrock sign has been completely omitted which helped reduce the parts count. Some other things that were excluded were some of the characters such as Bamm-Bamm, Pebbles, and Dino. I’m not sure why they were left out but considering the Big Bang Theory (21302) set had seven minifigures at a lower price point, adding two, possibly three more would have been nice. Perhaps they could be in a future set? Probably not.
