Two sets have been chosen by the LEGO Ideas team, these will become future purchasable sets. First up is the Minifigure Prize Machine by fan designer Rob Vangansewinkel, this one looks great and perfect for Minifigure collectors. Next is the Westen River Steamboat by Aaron Hall, this one also looks great and is something complete new we’ve not every seen before. Being selected from a group of 49 fan projects is incredible and we would like to say a massive congratulations to the designers.

In addition to the two projects above, a third set was also chosen, Disney Pixar’s Luxo Jr Lamp, but this requires further review so watch this space for more details on that one.

Over the past months, the LEGO Review Board evaluated 49 innovative and stunning product ideas that reached 10,000 supporters between early May 2023 and early September 2023.

We want to congratulate all 10K members for achieving this challenging milestone and becoming eligible for review. Our review board has again had the difficult task of reviewing the wide variety of high-quality submissions.

We currently have 7 fan creations in development, launching at different points in the future. On top of that, we recently revealed the stunning Dungeons & Dragons: Red Dragon’s Tale set created by our talented Dutch fan designer, Lucas Bolt aka BoltBuilds.

Today we’re thrilled to add 2 new LEGO Ideas creations to that list today!

Check out the announcement presented by LEGO Ideas Community Activation Manager Hasan Jensen and LEGO Ideas Model Designer Marina Stampoli.

This simple yet effective design by Brick Dangerous shows the very basic nature of the game. Despite the animation giving the impression, it doesn’t have a moving function, rather you rebuild the design to move the T-Rex and other elements. Should LEGO decide to make a set for this that might be a great addition.

We would like to wish Brick Dangerous the best of luck in gaining the required 10k support. If you like the look of this idea and would like to give your support, please use the links below. Registration is free to LEGO Ideas and only takes a minute, so head over there now and do your part!

Among a few things you might see in Antarctica are impressive ice sculptures carved out by the wind, penguins (my favourite animal), or if you are lucky you might even witness the southern lights! I wanted to combine my passion for design with my fascination with Antarctica to create a model which appeals to Lego fans and explorers alike!

So it’s a great idea to have a dedicated LEGO display set showcasing the beauties of this continent. It’s a quite substantial display featuring around 3,000 parts. Included is a light brick feature (which I’ll cover later on) and a nice range of penguins. Smile and wave boys!

The 7 species of penguin, from left to right are: Emporer Penguin, (Emporer penguin chick), King Penguin, Macaroni Penguin, Gentoo Penguin, Adelide Penguin, Magellanic Penguin, Chinstrap Penguin.

My favourite feature in this project must be the use of a light brick to create the southern lights (aurora australis) in the backdrop. Using several colours transparant pieces to give the impression of a true spectacle of light. This screenshot doesn’t really do it justice, so I can only encourage you to head over to the project page and watch the video that’s embedded to see the light function in operation. And while you’re there, just hit that support button.

We’ve had countless LEGO Ideas over the years and there’s no sign of stopping, this year we’ve already had the A-Frame Cabin (21338), which will shortly be joined by the second set of the year, the highly anticipated BTS Dynamite (21339) set.

Thankfully it doesn’t stop there, with a plethora of ideas still in the works and due to arrive later this year and beyond. They include some excellent builds and themes, including one GWP (gift with purchase) set and for the first time a series of Pick-a-Brick mini models, one of which was designed by our good friend Martin from Boom Brickz!
