I’m a big train fan and a modular building fan and this set would look fantastic mixed with the two themes. If LEGO/Bricklink reads this post, here are the three designs I would like to see made in the 2021 AFOL Designer Program. There are a lot of great designs and then some that it looks like LEGO has produced in a different form already. If my link doesn’t work, go to the Ideas site and when you search, select Product Phase - Not Approved and IP - Original Ideas. My search revealed 44 sets in this category. The rules are the project must not have an IP tied to it and it must have achieved the 10,000 votes. While not exactly what we wanted, I can’t complain about this effort. Instead of soliciting new projects and crowd sourcing them, they are going to use designs from the Ideas platform and produce some of them. We heard nothing for a while, but we finally got something a few weeks ago.īricklink announced on 17 December 2020 that they were going to re-open the program, but it would be slightly different in 2021. A number of fans, including me, hoped the AFOL Designer Program would return. LEGO announced their purchase of Bricklink at the end of 2019 and there was much consternation in the fan community as to what would happen. I was a big fan of both of them and probably would have purchased all 13 of them if I had unlimited funds. One was #BL19003: Skyline Express and the other was #BL19012: Bikes!. They crowd funded 13 sets that were designed by fans and released them for purchase in 2019. In 2018, LEGO and Bricklink teamed up for the AFOL Designer Program.
