If we can get LEGO Avatar, why not Code Lyoko. It's getting 3 animated movies in Early 2009, And possibly Season 5. It's a VERY popular show, and would be a hit.

Set Ideas:

Set: Ulrich+Odd's Dorm
Price:$7.99 USD
Minifigs:Ulrich, Odd, Kiwi

Set:Jeremie's Dorm
Price:$7.99 USD
Minifigs:Jeremie

Set:Aelita's Dorm
Price:$7.99 USD
Minifigs:Aelita

Set:Yumi's House
Price:$10.99 USD
Minifigs: Hiroki, Yumi, Yumi's Mom, Yumi's Dad

Minifigs:Jim, Jeremie, Odd, Milly, Timmiya, Sissi, Nicolas, Herb

Set:Park
Price:$21.99USD
Minifigs:Jeremie, Aelita, Sissi, Jim

Minifigs:Yumi, Jim, Ulrich, Odd, Principal Delmas

Set:Factory

Minifigs:Yumi, Jeremie, Franz Hopper, Aelita, Ulrich, Odd, William


Other possibilites of sets would be some classrooms. A few of those could be year-after that sets, Q2 sets, or store exclusives. But really, this has great potential. Do you know how well this would sell? Krankrelats could use newly colored Toa Inika Heads. The Toa Inika Heads, and the head part with the XANA symbol look almost IDENTICAL. Making the Warriors' vehicles would be easy. The would sell like beeeeeeep hotcakes.

OK this does not look good if it was a set. I absolutely hated this show. It is so boring and lame. I don't think people want dorms and schools they want battles and fun stuff.

[Deinonychus]

No vehicles + Lack of broad recognizability and appeal = FAIL

Because LEGO Avatar sold ever so well  :-P

[Greyfox327]

Ugh, no! I'd much rather have a good anime! DBZ, Trigun, and Rurouni Kenshin come to mind.

Edit: I don't think talking like that is gonna help people agree with you. There's no reason to say "mother____"

I don’t think at the moment Lego should or will want to pick up any more licensed lines, to be honest I’ve never heard of the show, the best licensed lines are the ones everyone will have heard of no matter how out of touch with the modern world they are like me. So Batman, Star Wars, Indy even SpongeBob I think is the limit for the moment.

[kill will]

Um, no thanks. Never even heard of it. :-X And like Grayfox said, unless you want to get chambered, don't say Megablockin' awesome. *sad*

Yes, yes, YES!

Thank you! someone finally said what's been jumping around in my own head so much recently.

Here's the deal people...Licensed LEGO themes ARE NOT the vehicle for your personal favorite franchise to be made into toys. LEGO is very careful about choosing what licenses they make into sets. With very few exceptions (Avatar and Jurassic Park jump to mind, but I think Avatar may have been a package deal with Spongebob) they are themes that have a broad, perhaps even worldwide, appeal.

LEGO has also prospered so long by staying somewhat true to a building, learning, and fun angle with their products, and if something can't easily fit into those requirements, then it won't be licensed. I've also noticed the themes that seem to do the best are heavily vehicle based. As in Batman doing relatively well where Spider-Man crashed and burned.

So yeah...might as well go into the Embassy forum and request that LEGO start cracking on those House of 1000 Corpses sets

I can still dream of a Lego Vash the Stampede... 8-| (Look him up if you don't jknow what I'm talking about.He's awsome.)

It's a term of exasperation/disbelief, for things that would make you bury your face in your hands in real life. Silly isn't it? I thought that the -> :-| <- coverered that well enough. Keyblade Wielder Your attitude could do with some work. If you can't handle people disliking your idea then maybe you shouldn't post here. We also do not like the usage of internet speak on Eurobricks. Half the people here will have no idea what you are on about.

i dunno...i'm just guessing here.

okay...back to the discussion.

This is just one big single sided arguement  *wacko*  Frankly might've been abit mean at first, politness can go a long way. Even though we all have our own favourite shows - They all don't make great lego themes to everyone, this is why generally themes are strayed away from, unless intensely popular, like star wars, or harry potter. TLC doesn't like to gamble, ever since galidor.

So, frankly, I just don't see it happening, which in my mind isn't bad, sorry  :-$

I just want to point out to everyone that this is a great example of a rational response. It's respectful and doesn't take things too seriously. Let's all try to remember this is a LEGO site and we should do our best just to have a good time and be nice to eachother. People come here to have fun after all.

Sorry to single you out Brickmaster, I hope the other kids don't think you're an ass-kisser and give you a wedgie on the way to class. Although, I'd laugh at that. :-D

Whoa, whoa, whoa, let's not go slamming on the Jurassic Park license.  ;-)   JP is a strong license, but the way in which it was handled was not the best in my opinion.  The sets were kind of lackluster, with the exception of the Spinosaurus Attack Studio, which included the plane.  Plus, there were only two sets, but it came out under the studios line.  So did Spider-Man, and I don't know about you but I thought those Spider-Man Studios sets were kind of ugly.

I think, without a doubt, it would've worked out a lot better for them had they done what they are doing with the Indiana Jones license.  Releasing sets from the first two movies would've have been a great idea, as they were pretty heavily vehicle based, especially The Lost World.  The third one, not so much, not to mention it wasn't as memorable.  Plus it is a very strong license, and I think if it's handled right, it can do well.  And with Jurassic Park 4 slated to come out next year, anything is possible. But I won't be holding my breath. :-X

And wow, sorry for getting way off topic there. lol  As for Code Lyoko, I doubt Lego would ever release sets based on that show.  I'm just not sure how strong its international appeal would be.  And after the blunder that was Avatar, I don't even think they'd consider it.  Doesn't mean you can't dream though.  :-)

[Deinonychus]

Well don't get me wrong, I wanted Jurassic Park to do well (it should be obvious why ), but it didn't really lend itself well to a LEGO theme. JP is all about the dinosaurs, and aside from a lot of sets with the land rovers and jeeps and perhaps some fences, it'd be Dino Attack without the tanks and helicopters. I also doubt many kids would be thrilled with the In Malcom Minifig (although I'd love one)

Now, Spidey has some good sets for the second movie when LEGO divorced it from the Studios line. But all they were were nice buildings and such...no real "whee! factor" overall.

I think I accidentally watched Code Lyoko a couple of times. It was pretty much unwatchable, and most defiantly unbuildable  :-P

[DarkYamiDragon]

I love Code Lyoko, and it would make a great theme.

But I'm afraid that Lego would definitely not make a theme of it. Sure, I think it's a great show, but it's really not that popular.  |-/

Not Popular? Epic Failure. It has had Almost 100 Episodes, 4 seasons, has lasted for 4 years, has had 3 video games, and tons of merchandise. Not popular my megablocks.
