17/12/2020 - 18:04 LEGO Ideas Lego news

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.

The visuals of most of these boxes had already been leaked on social networks but today LEGO provides some crisp photos of some of the sets expected for January 2021: On the menu, a few pandas in a box celebrating the Chinese New Year, a New York taxi, an Indian tuk-tuk, a Valentine's teddy bear, dogs and cats.

Bravo to the designer of the tuk-tuk who thought of adding the traditional packed lunches to the roof of the vehicle that hundreds of delivery people disperse every day in the four corners of the big cities.

It should also be noted that the BrickHeadz range frees itself from the usual standards for the two boxes which feature pets by offering bases installed in presentation supports a little more original than those usually delivered.

We will talk about these boxes again soon on the occasion of "Quickly Tested".

You might expect it. The vote proposed at the end of November on the LEGO Ideas platform which aimed to determine which license would have the honor of filling the box with the 150th LEGO BrickHeadz minifigure brought together 13000 participants and the winning proposal among the Minecraft, Lilo & Stitch, Jaws and Star Wars licenses is ... Star Wars.

LEGO does not provide details of votes, not even a few percentages, just to get a more precise idea of ​​the distribution of support recorded for a particular license. Suddenly, some obviously cry conspiracy and rigging, it is in season. It is also not known which character from the Star Wars universe will have the honor of wearing the number 150 in the LEGO BrickHeadz range.

Come on, I don't think anyone is fooled, whatever the subject, it's always Star Wars that wins at the end and LEGO that decides the content and the timing. This whole operation was probably only intended to tease us the next licensed figurines to come.
