This is a site for AFOLs so probably not the target audience. I doubt LEGO would
take you up on the idea of a new TV show unless you approach them through the
correct channels. For unofficial parody type videos, youtube is probably the
best place.

Hi. Correct channels have been approached. Research is being gathered to test
the idea. Thanks for your feedback 🙂

i have a great idea for an episode:
lego guy gets hurt & goes to the hospital,
he broke his arm so they x-ray him & the doctor comes in & says:
"son, you broke your arm, but thankfully we found 1 in the same color on
Bricklink.com.
we can order it for you. but there is a $100,000 minimum purchase"
& lego guy has to go around with just 1 arm trying to find an arm at yard sales
& the dark city streets....
|
Great idea 😂👍

| | I have a question for everyone out there.
Back in 2004 I started collecting all the pieces for the Star Destroyer and along
with my collection I was able to complete it sometime in 2014.
It is based on the original instructions but I have improvised in some places.
For example the interior technic beams are black and not grey, the repetitive
greebling between the two halves uses different elements and I am missing the
2 grey domes at the top. There are a couple (maybe 4 or 5) missing light grey
plates.
I would think that you would have to be a true Lego Star Wars collector to know
that this is not the original set.
But this is 100% Lego - no compatible pieces.
I am thinking of selling it but I know no idea what it might be worth or if there
would even be a market for such a collection of pieces.
Please give me your thoughts.
Thanks

Take photos of the modifications. Disassemble the set and check inventory, ensuring
you have 100% of the parts to build it the LEGO way, plus any extras from your
addition. List it here in your new store with details on both ways to build
it.if the variations are great you can likely get a few extra yen for it.

I've already parted out several, have a few more to go if you're looking
to finish it out with correct parts and sell it complete.

1. You need a store to sell here.
2. Be honest! Make sure the buyer knows it is not the exact set and that parts
are missing and exchanged for more easily available parts.

I suggest you have a read of the rules and regulations on the IDEAS site. They
explain everything there.

LEGO Ideas doesn’t have limitations on the parts used (colours & decors, I don’t
think you can use totally inexistent bricks).
The chosen designs are completely re-designed by LEGO (sometimes, according to
some, the results are not looking much like the submissions).
Submissions are limited to IPs in the sense that you won’t be chosen if you use
IP that LEGO already has (Harry Potter, Star Wars…). You also won’t be chosen
if LEGO can’t (or won’t) acquire the IP.
BDP is limited to a palette of parts available when the sets will be produced
by LEGO.
One can make their own stickers (but not on minifigs).
The designs are not re-designed by LEGO. They are _checked_ (and produced and
sold) by LEGO and small changes may be done but the goal is to have real AFOL-designed
products.
BDP is “no-IP” at all. That includes IP LEGO already has rights for (Harry Potter,
Star Wars…) but also LEGO’s IP (NINJAGO…). There’s tolerance for Classic Space
or Castle themes.

BDP instructions for Round 1, Round 2, and Round 3 are right here:
https://www.bricklink.com/v3/designer-program/past/bdp-2021.page
|
Thanks, I did discover that just now.
I would think it highly beneficial to link to the instructions from the catalog
entry pages as a note on each kit though. Since all but the initial backers
buying the kit will never see that page, most all moving forward would expect
to find it linked in the set catalog entry or on LEGO.com. As is it is extremely
hard to find. I only did since I knew where the set originated from on the other
pages of the site.

It is being removed because it is being split in to 2 different parts: 3068a
and 3068b.
The difference is 3068b has a small groove on the bottom (most newer ones are
like that) and 3068a has no groove.
Hope this helps!
