The Medieval Watermill by fishingtwister is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. The project can easily incorporate into a castle themed setting. It proposes three minifigures, a mom, dad, and son but the main feature here is that it can integrate Power Functions to rotate the watermill with everything hidden inside the building.
The project now joins The Blues Mobile, SEGA Classic Arcade Machines, Dungeon Master, Red Arrows Hawk, Venetian Houses, and Jeep Wrangler, NBC’s The Office, Tron Legacy Cycle, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, and Surf Rescue as the projects to reach the First 2017 Review Stage.

Well, it doesn’t adhere to a licensed theme, so it kinda has a chance.
The amount of details could probably be toned down to reduce part count and price, without significantly affecting the quality of it.
I would think so. Great looking mill…
nice.. very nice! .. too bad that the contestants are not required to publish also the piece count.. what could this be? cca 3000 pieces?
Your RSS feed is filled with spam.
I believe that Allen has already told you his opinion on the matter.
What even is an RSS feed?
Erm…I guess you had to delete a post?
Temporarily.
Ew. I highly dislike this overly-detailed style of building. Thankfully, it almost definitely won’t be made into a set.
I thought that the more detailed the more appraised. Given your attitude LEGO might altogether stop releasing their UCS sets.. hell.. ! why just UCS sets.. these SW minifighter will do just right! (at least for people with your way of thinking :).. and dont forget the “overly detailed modular buildings! they stand next in the row..
I disagree with the EW, but I’m with you this won’t be sold as a set.
Makes sense to produce considering there’s no licensing and there’s gotta be a lot of collectors who would like the challenge. 🙂
Very interesting model. I hope it stands a chance against the high expectations!
Alot going for this set: no license to acquire, advanced techniques, power functions compatible, rare goat minifig.
The build looks amazing with all the angles but I wonder if LEGO can up there game to give it the “go ahead”.
