LEGO today announces the list of nine mini-builds selected as part of the initiative LEGO Ideas Test Lab Challenge launched in september 2022 : Nine creations were selected among all those submitted by the participants invited to this construction challenge involving a limited inventory and the Studio software.

These nine mini-models will be available for sale through the official online store, probably through the interface Pick a Brick initially associated with this initiative.

No prices or specific dates for the moment but we will know more very soon. In the meantime, you can take a closer look at the nine creations concerned via the list posted online. on the LEGO Ideas blog.

The jury in charge of counting the votes for the competition organized as part of the partnership between LEGO and W aiming to produce a set on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the license Dungeons & Dragons gave its verdict: it is no surprise that the creation Dragon's Keep: Journey's End who wins. LEGO designers will now work on adapting this construction of almost 3000 pieces as an official product of the LEGO Ideas range, which should not be marketed before 2024.

The LEGO team in charge of evaluating LEGO Ideas projects that have reached 10.000 supporters will once again have to roll up their sleeves: 36 projects have been selected for the third phase of the 2022 review.

As usual, the selection is made up of more or less interesting ideas, slightly wacky projects that a priori have no chance of passing, various and varied licenses, modulars, medieval sets, etc...

Fans have voted, now it's up to LEGO to sort out and select the idea or ideas that deserve to pass on to posterity. Always so difficult to risk a prognosis, we know that LEGO sometimes has the ability to surprise and disappoint us at the same time. All will not be lost for those who see their project go down the drain, they will receive a consolation endowment consisting of LEGO products with a total value of $500.

If you want to find out more about all these projects, go to the LEGO Ideas blog, they are all listed there. Result expected for summer 2023.

As far as I'm concerned, I just hope that the project Classic Thunderbirds by Andrew Clark will be validated, it's all my youth.

Update : there are in fact only 35 projects in the running, the one inspired by the film The Neverending Story having been withdrawn following a request from the rights holders.
