I am glad it is a tiny Hulk. Gives me a mini fig head I can play with. HULK IN BUNNY SUIT!
Amen! Love that mini-Hulk!

Looks like the Firefly Cuusoo got declined. I wish Lego would make more sets intended for adults. (In terms of design and complexity) There are so many awesome ideas and builds that they could produce (like the Serenity) that fans would gobble up, but of course they decline to produce it because they can't sell a set based off a show that's intended for older audiences. Even though they have sets with minifigures that use guns and all kinds of weapons. Ridiculous.

People should really stop trying to get cuusoo from IP owned by big media. You aren't going to get News Corp, Disney or anyone else to license IP without some serious negotiation.
modular...western....town.......
I love Cuusoo and what it represents, but there are a lot of sketchy decisions they make. The comparison of LotR and ANYTHING with violence is prime. It's a bit sad that they would use the argument of violence when there are CLEARLY violent undertones in some of the current themes they are offering.

Yup. Minecraft was niche enough it was probably easy to get licensed. But the movie and TV sets are just way too big, and if Lego thought they could get stuff from those IPs they probably would have gone after it themselves.
Modular Minas Tirith. Make it happen, Lego!
Modular Cloud City
...only 650 more votes needed for the Western Town...
Nah. I want an entire line based around Cloud City. The biggest set being this huge and imposing model of the city itself, the smallest set being a Cloud Car or something.
And just for kicks, make a set where you build Lobot's earmuffs or whatever they were.
And let's be honest: who cares about a submarine and a satellite? I know they achieved the most votes but WHY
This confused me as well. The model was gorgeous, definitely...But in all seriousness, I really did wonder why those got more votes than, say, the Modular Western Town.
I could go for a UCS Cloud City, in the style of the Death Star II
CUUSOO was beta-tested in Japan, hence the first two projects being of Japanese origin.
Otherwise, why not have the Hubble or Apollo lunar lander instead of the Hayabusa?

Can anyone confirm for me if there are any stickers in the Magneto/Wolverine/Deadpool Helicopter set?
I'm thinking of buying two to qualify for the Hulk minifig as I can hold on to one for my nephew, and I'd like to know if there is the possiblity of bent stickers in the box.
Thank you.
Whoa, LEGO needs to do this! I could hardly believe that was all LEGO from that pic.

As amazing and awesome as that set would be, that is a HUGE set. That would retail for about $800+ if it came out like that.
I am sure they could make it mini fig scale and get the piece count down to like 5-6K or so. And it would be a very imposing piece on display.
I dropped by my local Target and then TRU stores, both stores were completely out of stock of minifigures. And if I ordered online I wouldn't be able to know what I'm paying for.
So I'm thinking about just giving up on being into LEGO. I'm sick of how tedious it is to get my hands on them. Shit is always overpriced and often out of stock and I'm about done with it.
Just save up and order the sets you want online. That is what I do. I only get the mini figs on impulse myself, and sets I plan on.
Yeah, I guess I could always ebay or bricklink the Evil Knight and Space Marine.
I propose a new game.
Guess the set.
What minifigs do you have? I have three knights now and two space marines. I am not trying to complete any sets, but just trying to get some cool figs that I like. I wouldn't mind a trade of figure for figure if you want to.
Appreciate the offer! But I don't have any other ones.
Has this been revealed yet?

There are wheels but that is wrong.Are those wheels in the lower left bag?
Maybe 5867?

Are there any Apollo projects on cuusoo? I'd give them all my money for a large lunar lander set, or a Saturn V

Ya, I don't think it dawned on me how tall that was even though it had a mini fig and a snowspeeder for scale. Looking at the ones on my desk, heh it definitely would be huge, but it's also one of my all time favorite Star Wars vehicles so I'd buy it in a heartbeat.
They've done two or three AT-ATs in the past. I have the motorised walking one which is really good looking but much smaller and simpler than that one. Regardless of how gorgeous a model is, you aren't getting an 8,000 piece set produced
Nope. But I do think with some clever brickwork they could get something really detailed and massive down to the 5k brick mark or so.
Maybe. I just can't see it. The motorised one 10178 (so UCS/exclusive numbering) was 1200 pieces. It isn't perfect, but I can't see them going that big - even the SSD is only around 3,000 pieces.
I was just referring to how much they could shave off of the 8k that model shown is. They could probably get it down even further, like the 3K range, but might have to sacrifice some size to get it.
