LEGO Cuusoo: The Winchester won't happen ....

It is by a brief press release on his blog that the LEGO Cuusoo team announces the news: The project Winchester Shaun of the Dead that had reached 10.000 supporters will not happen. Point.

The advanced explanation holds up: The project, or in any case the film from which it is inspired, is not compatible with the manufacturer's target clientele: 6-11 year olds. End of the discussion. A whole paragraph follows praising Yatkuu, the MOCeur behind the project, and the thing is folded.

In short, I suspected a little, and even if some wanted to believe it because of the popular and media enthusiasm that this MOC will have generated.

LEGO's argument is still a bit dubious: It would have been enough to identify the product as Collector for Adults, and voila ... In short, once again LEGO is more about its own image as a manufacturer respectful of its pseudo non-violence policy, than the demand of its potential customers ...
