LEGO Cuusoo - Reviews in progress

As a preamble, note that the Jurassic Park project initiated by senteosan was definitely buried despite its 6495 supporters: LEGO recalls that another brand holds the Jurassic Park license, in this case Hasbro with its KRE-O range.

Hasbro has in fact signed a licensing agreement with Universal around the new film in the franchise, Jurassic Park 4, due in summer 2014.
All remaining projects around the Jurassic Park license in the race on Cuusoo will be progressively "archived", understand withdrawn, as soon as they reach 1000 supporters.

As for the next phase of "Review", no less than 7 projects (See the image above). Apart from the project Ghostbusters 30th Anniversary presented by Brent Waller, I don't see much coming out of this fall review.

Most of the other projects in the running, the feminist "Battle Pack", the rather minimalist reproduction of the CERN ATLAS module or the inspired mini-ships from the game FTL: Faster Than Light, have reached 10.000 supporters thanks to the intensive lobbying of their creators and the buzz on social networks, but their content does not in my opinion deserve to go further.

On the sidelines of Cuusoo, we are currently talking a lot about the excellent work of Orion Pax on the license Masters of the Universe (The Masters of the Universe). Obviously, all those nostalgic for the animated series go there with their "Shut up and take my money"on Twitter and others, and hope that the buzz will be enough to make LEGO react in the right direction.

But it is wasted effort and for a very simple reason: It was Mattel who created from scratch Masters of the Universe license and there is absolutely no chance that LEGO will ever release a box containing Musclor (He-Man), She-ra and Skeletor ...

Mattel, to take advantage at the time of the general craze forHeroic-Fantasy and Conan the Barbarian, has also first launched a range of toys Masters of the Universe in 1981 before ordering in 1983 from the Filmation studio the advertising animated series that we (almost) all know.

That being said, Orion Pax has covered almost all of the content of the license and you can go to his site to discover every character, every device and even the Castle of Shadows (Castle Grayskull) in LEGO version (Click here).
