The BrickLink Designer Program is fast becoming a big thing, and rightly so, as it gives rejected LEGO Ideas submissions a second chance.
We’ve already seen the success of Round 1 and next week sees the start of Round 2. But there is one set that has been pulled due to the tragedy a few weeks ago on the set of the Rust movie.
Brickwest Studios had been removed from this coming round but worry not as the Bricklink team have promised it’ll be back for Round 3!
The space it leaves will be filled by another great looking idea, Venetian Houses, which comes in at $289.99/€244.99.
Please see Brick Links official statement below:
Official statement:
As you might have heard, there has been a recent tragic incident on the movie set of Rust. Due to this tragedy, we have decided to move Brick West Studios to Round 3 and move Venetian Houses in to Round 2 to take its place.
We are doing this out of respect for people affected by the recent tragedy on the movie set of Rust. We didn’t want to draw any unintended and inappropriate association between the fan design and the tragedy at this difficult time.
Venetian Houses will sell for USD 289.99/ EUR 244,99.
We communicated this to the fan designers affected by this last week. I want to say a warm thank you to them for their understanding!
