Bricksauria – Tyrannosaurus Rex Achieves 10,000 Supporters on LEGO Ideas

The Bricksauria – Tyrannosaurus Rex by senteosan is the latest project to hit 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. If you remember back in 2013, the Tyrannosaurus was part of his LEGO CUUSOO Jurassic Park project before it was archived due to licensing issues. This was also before Jurassic Park sets were allowed again on LEGO Ideas.

As a Jurassic Park/dinosaur fan, I do like the overall look of the set and it would make a great display piece. The Bricksauria – Tyrannosaurus Rex project now joins The Discworld, Science Adventures, the Medieval Market Street, Disney Princess Frozen: Elsa’s Ice Palace, and the Douglas DC-3 to qualify for the First 2015 Review Stage.

LEGO Ideas Exo Suit (21109) Decomissioned Today

Just a reminder, today is the last day to order the LEGO Ideas Exo Suit (21109) from Shop@Homeicon as it will be decomissioned, aka retired. You can also pick up the set on Amazon if you want to go that route. The Exo Suit was one of the top sets in 2014 and even became sold out for a short time when it was first released. I’m not sure what will happen once March rolls around but I wouldn’t wait if you still don’t have a set yet. There might be some sets still lingering in stores after today but I believe this is it for the Exo Suit.

Douglas DC-3 Achieves 10,000 Supporters on LEGO Ideas

Douglas DC-3

The Douglas DC-3 by Ssorg is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. The aircraft is a fixed-wing propeller airliner that transformed air travel in the 1930s and 1940s and had the most impact in World War II. The set comes in at 18 inches in length with a 26 inch wingspan and includes some plays features such as a turn knob to retract and extend the landing gear as well as a removable top to access the interior. You can check out the landing gear feature in this video.

The project now joins The Discworld, Science Adventures, the Medieval Market Street, and the Disney Princess Frozen: Elsa’s Ice Palace to qualify for the First 2015 Review Stage.

LEGO Ideas Exo Suit (21109) Officially Retiring

The highly anticipated and very popular LEGO Ideas Exo Suit (21109) will be officially retired. The project by Peter Reid encompasses the feelings of the LEGO Space theme with the design of the Exo Suit as well as the minifigures included. Unfortunately, all things must come to an end and for the Exo Suit, it will be gone on at the end of February.

You can still order the set on Amazon or Shop@Homeicon but there are very limited quantities available. You may still also find them in LEGO Stores and possibly other retailers like Target and Toy R Us but the best chance to get it is still online. We’ve done a review of the Exo Suit (21109) and you can read more on it if you like.

Disney Princess Frozen: Elsa’s Ice Palace Achieves 10,000 Supporters on LEGO Ideas

The Disney Princess Frozen: Elsa’s Ice Palace by Fohzen is the latest project to hit 10,000 on LEGO Ideas. This project was inspired by the movie and was submitted before the official LEGO Disney Princess Elsa’s Sparkling Ice Castle (41062)icon was released late last year. This version of the castle is made with more translucent bricks to give it a more natural ice look to it.

Elsa’s Ice Palace will be joining The Discworld, Science Adventures, and the Medieval Market Street as qualifiers for the First 2015 Review Stage. Although the project was created before the official set was released, it has a small chance of passing due to LEGO having an active license with Disney and they even stated in the comments, “a project based on an existing LEGO license has a smaller chance of passing the LEGO Review than other projects.” Many fans of the project would like to see this set be produced but I wouldn’t hold my breath.

Medieval Market Street Achieves 10,000 Supporters on LEGO Ideas

The Medieval Market Street project by AlexP is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. The project features a very detailed market along with some medieval houses which are all three stories high and have different styles and advanced building techniques. Some of the buildings include a blacksmith, pub, stables, and a Sheriff’s residence. The market itself is filled with little stands that are selling various food items. You can check out more images and the backstory of the Town of Lev over on AlexP’s MOCpages. The project would go great with the LEGO Castle Medieval Market Village (10193) from 2008 but it actually looks a bit cooler than the official one.

The Medieval Market Street joins The Discworld and Science Adventures as the projects so far to qualify for the First 2015 Review Stage.

LEGO Announces LEGO Ideas Doctor Who and WALL-E Sets

LEGO Ideas Doctor Who

A few days ago, we reported that a Doctor Who project would indeed become a LEGO Ideas set and today LEGO has confirmed that rumor. The project by Andrew Clark, Doctor Who and Companions, will become LEGO Ideas set #12. It’s rumored that all 13 incarnations of the Doctor will be included in the set so I hope that’s true. For you Whovians, your request of an official LEGO set has been achieved. This also makes the second project from a TV show that will become a LEGO set with The Big Bang Theory being the first.

LEGO has also finished their review of the Second 2014 period and the WALL-E project by Angus MacLane will become the 11th set to be produced. Angus is an animator and director who actually worked on the film and he was done a great job creating the model. WALL-E was released in theaters back in 2008 and became a box office hit which earned it the Best Animated Feature Film at the 81st Academy Awards.

The design, pricing, and availability of both newly designated LEGO Ideas sets are still being work on and will be released later this year. Congratulations to both of the project creators. The third 2014 LEGO Review is already underway and we can expect the results late spring/early summer.

On a side note, I did see this news early this morning but I was not able to be at the computer. I appreciate everyone who emailed in about it.
