No offense to @TobyTheBuilder64, but LEGO depicting young adults and kids killing each other for entertainment of the ruling elite is not exactly a mess LEGO would want to get into...

BrickBob Studpants Posted June 10 Posted June 10 I recently advertised my current project in the other Ideas thread and completely forgot we also have one for licensed projects specifically, so here we go! If you wanna see The Emperor‘s New Groove potentially join the ranks of the previous Disney Ideas sets, please consider supporting my project! Thank you very much! Quote
Sumichi Posted June 11 Posted June 11 Iconic 1996 Movie Twister - Educational Purposes This build can help people to learn more about how tornadoes work. The shape of the twister shows how mighty and strong winds creating powerful destruction in their path. The debris flying around (bike, cow, roof panels) reminds us how dangerous tornadoes are in real life. Storm chasers like the characters in the movie collect weather data to help scientists understand these storms and warn people early. This design shows the power of a twister and the chaos it brings. I hope this build reminds people of the movie Twister and also inspires kids and fans to learn more about weather—and to create their own ideas with LEGO bricks https://ideas.lego.com/projects/ef404b75-b918-4cfa-ad71-1a565b55aa4a Quote
Legoman123 Posted June 16 Posted June 16 We have to get a Lego Futurama set soon, there’s now been 3/4 sets on Lego ideas that have made it to 10K supporters, surely Lego can see the draw is there and then some to make a set based on it. Quote
siuliano Posted June 16 Posted June 16 @Legoman123 it's usually an IP conflict. Futurama would sell really well. The good news is that LEGO Ideas have just introduced a new system so if they like a set and there's an IP conflict that looks like it could be eventually resolved, they park it, so the submission doesn't have to go through the 10K process all over again.

Sorry when you say park it what do you mean? Like they let it go through until they obtain the IP? Also why is there an issue with the IP? Quote

Also why is there an issue with the IP? The idea of the “parking lot” means they give themselves more time for decisions. A project can end up there for up to 3 consecutive periods, i.e., an entire year Negotiating licensing agreements is a potential reason why a project might benefit from the additional time, but I’m sure there are others. Technically, the concept isn’t new since they’ve delayed decisions before, but now it has a name and is handled more formally. Quote

To be honest I don’t think it’ll pass through LEGO ideas anyway but I do think LEGO will do it off they’re own back and make Futurama like they’ve done with the Simpsons again and Star Trek and I’m sure other themes to. Who currently holds the licence for Futurama? Quote
RichardGoring Posted June 16 Posted June 16 There are so many impressive designs in this round. Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted June 17 Posted June 17 Godzilla and Tintin made it! Congrats to both fan designers! Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted June 25 Posted June 25 X-Files and Wallace & Gromit are both excellent picks!! 2026 is gonna be a great LEGO year ^^ Quote
Max_Lego Posted June 28 Posted June 28 Glad that they are doing Wallace and Gromit (though I'd prefer a minifigure scale set). But let's see if the finished set looks nice Quote
