TANV Posted November 28, 2017 Posted November 28, 2017 This is now confirmed. The next set will be the Tron Legacy Light Cycle. Ideas Announcement Let the speculation commence! 3 Quote
Val-E Posted November 28, 2017 Posted November 28, 2017 Rotten shortlist anyway. Roll on next submissions. 1 Quote
HandyHand Posted November 28, 2017 Posted November 28, 2017 Yes, yes, yes! I had voted for the TRON Legacy Light Cycle set and am thrilled it will become a real set! Funny when they say about the Surf Rescue proposal: Following the intensive LEGO Ideas review, we have however decided not to turn their Surf Rescue project into an official LEGO Ideas set. Despite this, we have offered to work with Damien and Aiden on some special projects to share their story and message. We will announce more about potential initiatives if they become a reality. I 'smell' an upcoming City Sub-theme centred around sun protection at the beach. Regarding the next review results of those six sets: I think NONE of them will get the green light. Quote
biking_tiger Posted November 28, 2017 Posted November 28, 2017 I love Tron in a goofy nostalgia-tinged sort of way. I hope the actual set has a little more meat, though. Surf's up, baby! Quote
Mos_Eisley Posted November 28, 2017 Posted November 28, 2017 Looking forward to the Tron set. Let's do Flynn's arcade next. 2 Quote
exracer327 Posted November 28, 2017 Posted November 28, 2017 Tron is owned by Disney. Was probably the easiest license to pick up out of the lot. To boot, they could do a whole line of Tron products. Can anyone imagine the Carrier (original or Legacy) done in LEGO? The fighters / bombers from Legacy, both with swing wings like Star Wars V19 Torrent. The Solar Sail from original. Off-road dune buggy with changing wheels from Legacy. There could be a whole line depending on how this bike sells. I agree with others though, it needs something more like Clu on a red bike coming head-to-head with Flynn. That would be a cool set. Quote

They gonna do exactly the same with this set they did with GBHQ. Refused the idea at the voting stage, released later as a standalone set without giving any credit to the author, because they can.https://ideas.lego.com/projects/513f51f0-f6ea-473f-83e9-9dc6a61e7a4c Quote

They will not jump into the GBHQ PR nightmare again. The most likely reason is that the submission is lacking on its own as an IDEAS product, but can be a good fit in a City theme with some extra message. If LEGO is truly smart, they can run a small PR campaign with it to raise awareness (and sell more sets). Edited November 28, 2017 by inversion 1 Quote

Thanks for posting this. Exactly what I was thinking when I saw the IDEAS project page of this one so I didn't vote for it. Too lazy to dig out the image of this UA set yesterday after seeing the result... lol but I guess people will just buy as long as there's a cool license attached to the sets.

inversion Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 Good riddance. Saturn tower is nice in concept, but not really feasible as an official LEGO set for multiple reasons. If the selection is meh, let's spend the creative designer time on something else. 2 Quote
gregpj Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 let's spend the creative designer time on something else.Like more creative remakes! /s Quote
Dr Jedi Posted January 22, 2018 Posted January 22, 2018 Just watched TLG video revealing the new results. Interesting, and obviously intentional, Easter egg with the bleeps in the middle of the presentation. I'm no lip reader, but I could believe he says "Bespin set" when getting bleeped. And it would make sense, as I don't see any of the other sets potentially being turned down because it's going to be part of a future mega-set...unless they decide to roll out some D2C 5000+ piece NASA set - which I would totally be fine with! I think this is a clear tip of the cap that a new UCS Cloud City is coming. 2 Quote
Alpinemaps Posted January 23, 2018 Posted January 23, 2018 No offense to the designers - all of those are great MOCs. But none of those worked for me for sets. 2 Quote

Val-E Posted May 31, 2018 Posted May 31, 2018 At least we will get a decent rest from IDEAS sets till summer 2019, once Voltron comes out. Quote
