Big Changes For LEGO Ideas

April 15, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

To celebrate the first birthday, LEGO Ideas has made some important changes to the lifespan of projects. Every project will now be given one year (365 days) to achieve 10,000 supporters and will be awarded more time when they hit certain milestones. For projects that get 1,000 supporters, they will get an additional 6 months (182 days) and if projects reach 5,000 supporters before time is up, they will get another 6 month extension (182 days). That means projects now have the potential to get a maximum of two years (729 days) to get 10,000 supporters.

For those projects that are currently very close to hitting 10k with only a few days left to go, they can now breathe a sigh of relief as they now have more time to get the required number of supporters. This change also helps projects that aren’t IP-related ones as they sometimes get looked over for projects that do have IPs so that’s cool. Head over to the blog post to read more about the major changes coming to LEGO Ideas.

April 13, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The 1969 Chevrolet Corvette by brickdater is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. Based onthe 1969 C3, it is one of the most recognizable classic cars in automotive history.

The project becomes the 11th one to reach the First 2015 Review Stage joining The Discworld, Science Adventures, Medieval Market Street, Disney Princess Frozen Elsa’s Ice Palace, Douglas DC-3, Bricksauria – Tyrannosaurus Rex, the International Space Station, The Golden Girls, The Legend of Zelda: King of Red Lions Play Set, and the RMS Titanic. There are now less than 16 days before the review period is finished and there are still a few more projects that could join the list as well.

LEGO Ideas RMS Titanic Achieves 10,000 Supporters

April 9, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Stepping away from the exciting LEGO Dimensions news today, I have some more LEGO Ideas news to report. The RMS Titanic by Ssorg enters the First 2015 Review Stage fray as it becomes the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. Ssorg has proposed two different sized builds for the passenger liner depending on what LEGO decides to do while reviewing it. Note that the sizes of the Titanic are scaled according to the real one.

The projects is the fourth one to hit 10k supporters on LEGO Ideas in the last 6 days and joins a crowded list in the review stage which includes The Discworld, Science Adventures, Medieval Market Street, Disney Princess Frozen Elsa’s Ice Palace, Douglas DC-3, Bricksauria – Tyrannosaurus Rex, the International Space Station, The Golden Girls, and The Legend of Zelda: King of Red Lions Play Set. I believe this will also have the most sets in a single review stage with 10 projects currently vying for that coveted spot to become an official set. Ssorg doubles his chances in this review stage since his Douglas DC-3 also reaching 10k supporters earlier this year.

LEGO Ideas The Legend of Zelda: King of Red Lions Play Set Achieves 10,000 Supporters

April 8, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The Legend of Zelda: King of Red Lions Play Set by flailx is the second project today to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. The project features Nintendo Gamecube’s Link from The Wind Waker in a 576 piece set which also includes the warship and an island for the play features.

There have been three other Legend of Zelda projects that have also achieved 10k supporter on LEGO Ideas/CUUSOO and have all failed to pass the review stage. The King of Red Lions project joins a large lineup of projects that have reached the First 2015 Review Stage which includes The Discworld, Science Adventures, Medieval Market Street, Disney Princess Frozen Elsa’s Ice Palace, Douglas DC-3, Bricksauria – Tyrannosaurus Rex, the International Space Station, and The Golden Girls. We’ll see in a few months if this Zelda project can finally pass the review stage or not.

LEGO Ideas The Golden Girls Achieves 10,000 Supporters

April 8, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The Golden Girls Living Room and Kitchen Modular Set by lostsleep is the latest project to hit 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. The media somehow got word of the project and it spread like a wildfire on various websites.

The set is a recreation of the Golden Girls House and includes minifigures of Dorothy, Rose, Sophia, Blanche, and Stanley. Although there was lots of coverage about the project, I honestly don’t see it passing the review stage with the lineup it’s going up against. The Golden Girls now join The Discworld, Science Adventures, Medieval Market Street, Disney Princess Frozen Elsa’s Ice Palace, Douglas DC-3, Bricksauria – Tyrannosaurus Rex, and the International Space Station in the First 2015 Review Stage.

LEGO Ideas International Space Station Achieves 10,000 Supporters

April 3, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The International Space Station by XCLD is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. A day ago, it was 2100 supporters away from 10k but with the help of Reddit, it hit the milestone a short time ago. This was one of the projects that had less than a month before it would have been archived.

In its current configuration, the set comes with 2 Soyuz and 2 Progress capsules as well as astronaut and cosmonaut minifigures. There are also a lot of play features that you can read more on at the project link above. XCLD has provided alternate sizes of the ISS in case LEGO thinks the original XL project is too large.

LEGO Ideas projects that were grandfathered in from LEGO CUUSOO now have only 26 days to get the remaining number of supporters before they will be archived. You can check out those projects here. The International Space Station now joins The Discworld, Science Adventures, Medieval Market Street, Disney Princess Frozen Elsa’s Ice Palace, Douglas DC-3, and Bricksauria – Tyrannosaurus Rex in a jam packed First 2015 Review Stage.

LEGO Ideas One Year Deadline Approaching

March 29, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Last year, LEGO CUUSOO made the transition to LEGO Ideas and all the active projects that were grandfathered in had 365 days to get 10,000 supporters. If you want to show your support for these older projects, you essentially have one month or 31 days, to be exact, before they are archived by the system.

Below are the top projects that have over 8,000 supporters with a month left that could use your support if they don’t already for the final homestretch.

Update: GlenBricker is running a LEGO Ideas Deadline Bracket over on his website of projects that are in their final days.
