LEGO Ideas now live

"In the fall of 2008, CUUSOO SYSTEM and the LEGO Group teamed up to launch the LEGO CUUSOO crowdsourcing experiment. Initially, the site was only available in Japanese. But the promising results from the pilot led to the launch of the international LEGO CUUSOO beta site in the fall of 2011. Today, the LEGO Group is very happy to announce that the partnership with CUUSOO SYSTEM, has been such a success that we have decided to integrate the CUUSOO concept more closely into the LEGO experience called LEGO Ideas. We are grateful for the many years of collaboration and experimentation between our two companies and wish CUUSOO SYSTEM continued success, building CUUSOO as an open crowdsourcing platform for brands to connect with their fans on cuusoo.com."

 

 

There are a few changes - one being that a project has only a year to reach 10K supporters.  Another drastic change is that now TFOLs ages 13-18 will be able to submit projects (Yay for the TFOLs!)  However, they will only be reviewed if they have the signature of a parent or guardian.

 

The change will take place on April 30, 2014.  Read all about it here.

I like that TFOLs are now able to submit their projects. I'm now considering making my own project.

With only a single year given for reaching full support on any project, I hope Lego learns to promote this site better than the other. Piles of good to great original concepts that barely saw the light of day compared to the endless drones of yet another licensed property. Course it would help if people clicked the support button instead of just browse. So you come across a project which is less than 100% perfect; support it anyway. Lego will/could make the idea better through the inevitable redesign process and someone sees their dream of something they designed being released as an official Lego set be realized.

LEGO just sent out an official email to members saying CUUSOO beta has ended and LEGO IDEAS is up.

 

If the CUUSOO logo is removed from all the existing (still available) CUUSOO sets for the further production, maybe 'the original' CUUSOO sets will appreciate even higher? :D Not to say the rover...  :money:
