LEGO Ideas Celebrates 10 Years

November 8, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Today LEGO celebrates an amazing ten years of LEGO Ideas as a crowdsourcing platform for fans. It all started back in 2008 as LEGO CUUSOO during the beta phase and it eventually changed to LEGO Ideas which we now have today. The first set made for CUUSOO was the Shinkai 6500 Submarine (21100) and the first one under the LEGO Ideas name was the Ghostbusters Ecto-1 (21108). There now has been 23 sets that have been officially released so far and it doesn’t look like it will be stopping any time soon. Which LEGO Ideas set is your favorite?

LEGO Ideas Pop-Up Book (21315) Modifications

November 1, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

The LEGO Ideas Pop-Up Book (21315) is now available and if you’ve followed the project on Ideas, you’ll notice that LEGO made some minor changes to it. Jason Allemann has uploaded a new video showing some modifications he has made to the official set to his liking.

One of the big changes was that LEGO omitted the clasp on the set which I mentioned in my review. In the video, he has shown us know how to make a small change to the set to add the clasp. What’s cool is that you don’t even need your own parts to make because it uses existing parts from the set itself. Jason also shows us how to make a clip clasp but that will require some extra parts.

LEGO has released the designer video for the upcoming LEGO Ideas Pop-Up Book (21315). LEGO Designer Wes Talbott and Graphic Designer Crystal Marie Fontan talk about some of the details and processes that went into the Pop-Up Book. One interesting thing that Wes mentioned was that there was little change from the original fan project to the finished product.

The LEGO Ideas Pop-Up Book will officially be available starting on November 1, but if you didn’t see my post from earlier this week, there will be a signing event this Saturday at the Washington Square Shopping Center in Tigard, Oregon.
