Announcing the Next LEGO Ideas Set, and Winter 2014 LEGO Review Results Yup, you’ve got it! This is the results of the Winter 2014 LEGO® Review. Six projects from the Winter Review and one still under consideration from the Fall 2013 LEGO Review have been considered from every angle. Here’s what we have decided: LEGO Ideas #008: Research Institute We’re very excited to release Ellen Kooijman’s Female Minifigure set, featuring 3 scientists, now entitled “Research Institute” as our next LEGO Ideas set.
This awesome model is an inspiring set that offers a lot for kids as well as adults. The final design, pricing and availability are still being worked out, but it’s on track to be released August 2014, so keep an eye out! All other projects from the Winter 2014 Review periods will not be produced The LEGO Review Board has evaluated each project according to our decision criteria. We’ve decided that all other concepts in the winter 2014 review period will unfortunately not be produced as LEGO sets. This decision, however, does in no way take away from the incredible talent put into these projects or the passion supporters have shown. How do we make these decisions? Getting 10,000 votes for on a project is a huge accomplishment in and of itself. But it is really just the beginning of the project’s journey, because the 10,000 supporter milestone means the project enters the LEGO Review Stage. During the LEGO Review, a team of specialists within The LEGO Group – including LEGO set designers, marketing and business representatives, and other relevant team members – investigate and evaluate the project to determine its potential as a LEGO set.
This involves analyzing the votes and information you give us about your project as well as looking at things like playability, safety, and fit within the LEGO brand. This takes a while and the timing varies because of all the different factors involved in the decision process. Every potential LEGO product, including those developed internally, goes through a process like this and must meet the same standards. The LEGO Review Board makes all final decisions on which new sets the LEGO Group will release based on LEGO Ideas projects. First 2014 LEGO Review Results Coming Late Summer/Early Fall-2014 The first 2014 LEGO Review is well underway, and you can expect results late summer/early fall. Remember we have updated our review schedule to three times per year. We’re very excited about bringing you the Research Institute set and look forward to considering more of the amazing projects reaching 10,000 supporters and thereby qualifying for the LEGO Review. From LEGO CUUSOO to LEGO Ideas
As you may have noticed, LEGO CUUSOO changed its name to LEGO Ideas. But the name is not the only change! We introduced a new and improved website, complete with responsive design and the possibility of embedding videos into your project. We’ve also changed a few rules… For instance project creators now can be 13+ rather than 18+. We’re excited to see what the younger audience will bring of fresh new ideas and great builds. Also, a project is now only given year to reach 10,000 supporters. This means that you (yes, you) need to start campaigning in order to make the deadline. We hope you are as excited about the new LEGO Ideas as we are. And while we know that some transition time is required, we know that LEGO Ideas will be an even better community with more amazing projects than before!

In the event that the Companion Cube does speak, the Enrichment Center urges you to disregard its advice. ), we've been developing a Portal Cuusoo Project for some time now. The two seem to mix well, Lego and Portal, the basic bricks and tiles can easily and perfectly (with a little brickmath) replicate the standard setting of Portal, the iconic Testing Chambers. But for the more complex assets of the game, notably GLaDOS, there is satisfying level of difficulty, but still an elegant and representative translation. Lego and Portal will mesh nicely, each enhancing the other, the whole greater than the sum of it's parts.Now, let us flick forward in time a few months. A word of advice. If you notice yourself trying to warn you about supporting this project, do not make eye contact and ignore whatever you say. Lab boys tell me that'll wipe out time - entirely. So do both of yourselves a favor and let that handsome devil go about his business.We brainstormed for quite a while before crystallizing our various ideas and the multitudinous remarkable things about Portal, Portal 2 and related storyline into a few sets.---UPDATE - Wow, the project is over two thirds of the way there!

Post in the comments to suggest which other minifigs you'd like to see!---Background InformationThis project was put together by four Lego enthusiasts.
This group (known as Team Jigsaw) was originally assembled in 2011 to compete in a massive month-long MOCing competition, testing our steel against the most tempered foils in the Lego building racket. In 2011 twenty-one teams brawled in the MocAthalon, and our team finished in Third place. In 2012 thirty-nine teams strove in Lego conflict, and our team came in Second place. Suffice to say we can plot a line graph and are optimistic for 2013.These long, successful competitions tend to form a bond, and our team has stayed in touch since the last competition, having fun, honing our story-telling abilities in creative writing scrimmages, building, painting and making total fools of ourselves.Nick (Brickthing): A New Zealander Bionicle enthusiast, currently attending University in pursuit of an engineering degree. In his spare time he paints, plots and pwns.John (Fivey): An east coast American and the founder of Team Jigsaw, who stays up until 5 AM when collaborating on mad projects (such as this one).
With a ken for organizing and a lust for creative prowess, he orchestrates and participates in many wild Lego contests.Micah (Kakaru): Odds are you have seen an MOC or two built by his hands. An avid Lego fan, builder, writer, and reporter, he has creative abilities that are sometimes virtually indistinguishable from madness.Evan (Ehl-jay): A denizen of Hawaii, the creator of a wildly popular Portal vignette, and a significant presence in the Lego Flickr community, he has been MOCing for years at a ridiculous pace.Why are we doing this? Please show your support and share the project with your friends! All supporters will get cake!Aperture Science is required to remind you that all willing supporters must first be baked in order to qualify for cake.For more pictures of the entire project, click here!Older Wallpapers8000 supports - P-body Wallpaper (built by Evan)Widescreen:1600x10001024x640800x5007500 supports - Puzzle Game WallpaperStandard:1600x12001024x768800x600Widescreen:1600x10001024x640800x5007000 supports - GLaDOS' Chamber WallpaperStandard:1600x12001024x768800x600Widescreen:1600x10001024x640800x5006,500 supports - Cover Image WallpaperStandard:1600x12001024x768800x600Widescreen:1600x10001024x640800x500
