"What to build?

This month (July) the competition is all about Space – what would LEGO® Technic be in space? – is it shuttles, space stations, moon-buggies, satellites or something else? – you tell us, or rather… show us!

The theme is space, the model is up to you, be it rockets, shuttles or Space Stations, not even the sky is the limit here.

"How does it work?

Right now you can submit models - On the 19th of July - a panel of judges consisting of designers, marketing managers, building instruction artists and more will pick out (of all submissions) 10 finalists that will then be put up for voting here on the site. Considerations for the Nominees will be based on Model, Design, build to theme and age.

"The winner will receive a prize and also continue to the Big Finale in October."
