Coming soon to the LEGO Ideas range: a motorized maritime lighthouse

LEGO has just announced the result of the third phase of evaluation LEGO Ideas of the year 2020, with a batch which gathered 25 more or less successful ideas but which had all been able to gather the 10.000 supports necessary for their passage to the stage. of review. This is the project Motorized Lighthouse submitted by Must Build Roses (Sandro Quattrini) who is the only one to be definitively validated.

Everything else goes directly to the hatch, for various and varied reasons which are not officially communicated by LEGO, even if one can easily imagine that LEGO was not going to remake products already marketed like the Colosseum, Bag End or the police station which is also available as is from a "third party" manufacturer, a Boeing 737 with a bad reputation, a board game that we do not understand anything or a very depressing MRI scanner ...

The construction of the only validated project culminates at 47 cm high, it has an interesting feature in the form of a light brick powered via a Battery Box and set in rotation by means of a motor Power Functions.
