They just keep on coming, and I love it! The LEGO Ideas fan submission platform has just concluded with another record-breaking high, with a total of 57 product ideas qualifying for the First 2021 LEGO Ideas Review stage, as announced over their blogsite. These 57 submissions managed to get the necessary 10,000 fan votes needed to progress for this year’s first LEGO Ideas review.
Since the start of the pandemic, the LEGO Ideas platform saw a steady increase of fan submissions, largely as a result of increased LEGO building at home. As I’ve mentioned before in a previous related article, this is a testament to how LEGO building as a hobby, turned out to be a positive outlet for most LEGO fans as we strive to cope with the series of lockdowns and stay-at-home orders.
I’ve always been a fan of LEGO Ideas, and I’ve covered and supported some of its fan submissions that eventually found their way to becoming official LEGO Ideas sets. And I also intend to continuously cover every LEGO Ideas fan submission that reaches that 10K support milestone. However, the recent influx of review stage qualifiers is just kind of hard to keep track of! I guess I just have to double down on keeping them on my radar. It will always be a pleasure to see the creativity of the LEGO fan community spring into life, so be ready with the scroll wheel because this will be a very lengthy list.
Additionally, it should be mentioned that there was a particular fan submission that didn’t make the cut even though it managed to reach 10,000 supporters. The Stadium Tour did not eventually qualify for the First 2021 LEGO Ideas Review because it failed to follow the platform’s stipulated guidelines, particularly on “intellectual properties”.
As a last note, the Third 2020 LEGO Ideas Review Stage is about to be concluded, with the announcement of the winner slated to happen sometime this summer. We have to wait a lit bit more to see which among the 25 qualifiers in this particular review stage will go on to become an official LEGO Ideas set. For now, let’s take a look at what these new 57 product qualifiers for the First 2021 LEGO Ideas Review Stage has to offer. Which is your personal favorite? Let us know in the comments below.

wow
Your article is partly false, Stadium Tour was cut because of Lego Ideas garbage IP rules. Stadium Tour was based on the German industrial band Rammstein’s current tour stage, but Lego cut it cause the creator didn’t mention it. More interestingly, the band themselves posted about it on all social media channels, that’s what makes Lego cutting it all more shocking…
Thanks for the heads up. I initially thought that when LEGO said that it somehow infringed on intellectual property, that TLG was referring to its own sets. But a quick Google search revealed the entire story and my post was edited accordingly. And yeah, I agree with you on that it’s kind of crazy how LEGO sometimes interprets these IP rules. If the band is not affected or upset about it, then I guess it’s alright especially if it will give them a sort of marketing edge. The LEGO Ideas Review team is within its rights to enforce these rules, but I think there could be other ways to implement them that will also benefit the LEGO fans that supported the stadium.
