marcandre Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 22k pieces? I have a hard enough time storing SSD boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glenbart Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 The set would have to be priced at around 2k, no way would Lego make this set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glenbart Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 In fact, for 2k, it would have to fly and be able to submerge. Id buy it then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neosphinx Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Why not. A 1 off mother of all UCS. Would be nice that Taj Mahal is no longer biggest Lego set. If it has 20k pieces, I'd pay 1400 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinP Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Probably not going to be a set in the future. Lego would never release a set with 20,000+ pieces, and that retails for over $2,000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crustybeaver Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I see this slotting in nicely with the other Cuusoo and Ideas sets sitting at around the Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

citymorgue Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Although this would be nice, i would love to see a limited run set that was about 8000-10000 pieces and retail for 700-1000. Unfortunately this has a 99.999% chance of never happening. But it would be cool to build something of that magnitude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps in 10 years, they'll make a special anniversary set with 7500 pieces for 500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soadfan4ever Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 22,000 bricks? Might as well request a real live Unikitty come with each LEGO Movie set because it has the exact same possibility of happening. It does look awesome though.

trekgate502 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 The revised version is about 6,000 pieces as Lego said it was too big. I would love this as much as another UCS Falcon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@rtisan Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 It`s awesome, but seriously, where is the common sense? Lego would never make a set that large, I seriously doubt it. It would have to be $2000MSRP, out of most everyone`s budget, only the super collectors would plunk down that kind of cash. I`m up for a smaller version though (I see the edited 6000piece version) that`s still big, but more realistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest brickcrazyhouse Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 what does everyone think the max piece count limit is for a Ideas project? 508 being the most so far in the ecto-1. my guess would be the 1000 range Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smaller sets are easier sells though in mosts cases, so I`d like to think they will stick with the sub-$100 range, if they even go that high.

TheOrcKing Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 I would like to see the day where a 1,000 piece Ideas set is released or when I can look back and see more original concepts than licensed properties to have been accepted as actual sets. God I hope CUUSOO/Ideas truly will become a theme for creative builders. I am more hopeful of the whole thing now more than before, that much is for certain. However there still is an uncertainty in the air as to whether custom builds will make the cut for the long haul through judgment.Still this is a very impressive construction even if it is but a dream and oh what a dream it is.

Might as well request a real live Unikitty come with each LEGO Movie set because it has the exact same possibility of happening. It does look awesome though. If you ever see anyone crowdfunding a synthetic biology project to create UniKitty, let me know. I'm all in for at least one (two if my existing cats can tolerate the first one). I assume we're talking about a full-fledged UniKitty that speaks perfect English and can bounce off buildings, gobbling up Micro Managers...

Locutus001 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 I'd guess that it doesn't matter how many pieces are used as long as LEGO thinks that there will be profit for them. But since bigger sets are more risky for them I'd say that they will to more small sets before they might start out to do a big one (if they ever do).

Undercover Boss Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 They will follow their strategy to the letter. They would be more predictable if it were a public company. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
