The Brick Fan has reported that Lego is planning on creating new Minecraft sets in minifigure scale and would like customer support for ideas.

You can head over to their Facebook page and leave feedback.

Fantastic! Would love to see these - not only do I have a Minecraft-fan family, but it's pretty big with all my friends kids, too - perfect for Lego to continue to pursue.

Sigh. I don't really know what to think. Just awhile ago, Lego was gonna tear Minecraft apart for their hand in "killing" LU. Now they have a microfigure theme, a minifigure theme, and who knows what else? Strange. On one hand I can understand the craze surrounding the game, it's like having an unlimited supply of Lego to build whatever, but then again this will be the first time Lego has done a video game license, so who knows if it will tank or boom. Personally I don't like how the characters look in minifigures, brick-built would probably be more suiting. As a collector, I'll be staying away from essentially an expensive box of 2x2 bricks but as an investor I pick one up depending on how they do.

It's sort of funny actually. That they have to sell bricks as part of a building game brand to promote... building?

Interesting. By the looms of it, we should get some really nice new molds to build with, and some of those printed elements look really good, like the face of the pig. I can't tell if there are any new elements but the combination is nice.

I hate the sets and hate the game. Ill flip it if they make it though. Sooo easy.

Ookay, I have to ask. Why do you hate the game?

Awesome game. I play on the TOG (the older gamers) server in Aussie space.

The first set is pretty fun to play with, especially if you have 2 or more to add to the bricks. I have all the sets for investment, but I had to open 2 of them to play with.

I found this little gallery of rather large MOCs for various parts and characters from the game itself.

That is one thing I will admit to liking with the sets themselves. The more you have, the bigger world you can make as well as more room to be creative.

IM not creative. There is no point to me. I need a much more structured video game

Not a fan of the game personally. Certainly nothing against it, but Minecraft isn't my block of tea. I am curious though to see what they end up doing with a theme. I`m sure it will do very well amounts those who are fans.

Time to get some variety in the CUUSOO themed sets.

TheOrcKing · November 3, 2013

If Lego is intending on going through with creating a full range of minifigure scale sets under the Minecraft theme, I would think Lego will need to make them more readily available for everyone than the current CUUSOO sets are meaning these sets can not be Lego exclusives. As if we really need another limited theme here like Technic.

My kids are going to go bananas over this. They love LEGO, they love Minecraft, they love to spend my money.......

I agree. I am hoping the now approved Exo Suit will at least be a start in the right direction away from Minecraft and yet even more licensed properties.

After getting much feedback for the Creeper design, Lego is now going for the cow next and needs help.

Same with me. I am not a fan of the game. But there are people who want these sets because they like Minecraft.
