BrickLink Designer Program: A second chance for rejected LEGO Ideas projects

LEGO today announces the launch of a test phase of the all-new Bricklink Designer Program, an initiative that will at least temporarily replace theAFOL Designer Program created in 2018. The objective: to give a second chance to some of the projects which had in the past reached 10.000 supporters on the LEGO Ideas platform and which had then been rejected during the review phase.

This new version of the program will only be accessible by invitation and it is therefore LEGO that will select the projects that will be eligible for the second chance offered. Projects which are based on an external license will be automatically disqualified.

If this new variation of Designer Program is modeled on that of 2018, it will certainly be necessary to commit to buying one of the "drafted" sets and it is the number of pre-orders that will determine whether the product will actually be put on sale or not.

We do not know much more for the moment on the operation of the operation or on the packaging of the products that will come out. Knowing that LEGO has acquired the Bricklink platform in 2019, there may be a chance that the manufacturer's logo will be on the boxes of these products, a detail that may seem insignificant to some of you but which will reassure the most discerning collectors who only want products really "official" on their shelves.

Case to follow.
