The Lord of the Rings Set: Minas Tirith by NujuMetru is the latest project to hit 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. We’ve had plenty of LEGO LOTR sets in past but there were still many scenes in the trilogy that hasn’t been created yet including Minas Tirith. Not only is the project at a reasonable size, it also has plenty of minifigures and play features.
THe project now joins the Avengers Helicarrier, the Labyrinth Marble Maze, the F7A, The Goonies 30th Anniversary Inferno, and The Natural History Museum as the projects that are qualifed for the Third 2014 Review Stage. It looks like the LEGO Jury will have their hands full with all of these great projects.

Fantastic! I supported this project when it was at under 1k supporters. Hoping that TLG will let this one go, but does LEGO approve projects that use the same licensing as existing products?
They can but those sets are harder to pass review. According to the LEGO Ideas guidelines: “these active licenses are likely to have similar concepts already in the pipeline. Please keep in mind that a project based on an existing LEGO license has a smaller chance of passing the LEGO Review than other projects.”
I been supporting LotR and hobbit entries just to show Lego there is still interest in the theme despite my doubts in them passing review.
