If you hesitated on getting the LEGO Ideas Winnie the Pooh (21326) when it dropped last night, it looks like you’ll have to wait a little longer to get it as it has temporarily sold out on the LEGO Shop. In addition, all of the limited edition prints on the Rewards Center have also sold out as well. I knew the set would be popular but didn’t expect it to sell out in less than 12 hours. The general release is April 1 but I’m not sure if LEGO will have any stock by then. If you have a local LEGO Brand Store, I would suggest checking with them to see if they have any left.

For those who were interested in the LEGO Ideas Winnie the Pooh Art Prints, they are now available to redeem on the Rewards Center. The prints cost 750 points each and they are limited to 1000 prints each. The sizes of them are 21cm x 29.7cm (8.3″ x 11.7″) and each has a unique design and phrase.

The BrickLink Designer Program: 2021 Invitational officially kicked off a few hours ago and there’s so much traffic going on to the site that some people may have issues with the projects not loading up.

LEGO has officially kicked off the BrickLink Designer Program: 2021 Invitational where you can see the rejected LEGO Ideas 10k projects that are being considered to be released on the BrickLink platform. There are 27 members who have agreed to accept the invitation and there are 31 projects to be considered. Projects that are IP-based were not invited to participate.

The designs are currently in the pre-production phase and the designers will have to meet the program requirements and pass the test building before May 31 to be considered for crowdfunding. Once the projects reach this phase, the first 13 to reach the crowdfunding goal will become BrickLink Designer Program sets. The projects that don’t hit the goal will be sold as digital building instructions only.

KICKING OFF THE BRICKLINK DESIGNER PROGRAM: 2021 INVITATIONAL

Today we’re excited to share the next steps in the collaboration between LEGO Ideas and BrickLink via the BrickLink Designer Program: 2021 Invitational.

As communicated in December 2020, we planned to invite a selection of LEGO Ideas members and their 10K Club submissions to participate in the pilot program, the purpose being to realize more of the amazing fan designs that are submitted to LEGO Ideas.

The result has been that 27 members have agreed to participate with 31 10K Club projects. We’re thrilled at the response we got from the invited members with almost 100% of the invited members deciding to accept our invitation.

The designers are already very busy at work on their designs in the “pre-production” phase. In
