Hapori Tohu Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Yet another project has achieved ten thousand votes of support on LEGO Ideas! The Douglas DC-3 by Ssorg is a model of the iconic propeller-driven airliner from the 1930s and 1940s that was so popular that some are still flying today. The set itself looks great, and the builder has even proposed versions at two different scales to give LEGO the option of making either a smaller or larger set. While we'll have to wait until the review period arrives and ends, this is certainly an impressive model that deserves some consideration!

UnderscoreChronix Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Dat chrome though. Looks fabulous, though I expect LEGO will replace it with either silver or light grey in the final product. (Which looks like it'll be very, very expensive too seeing that thing's size and complexity) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vorahk1Panrahk2 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 It is a nice model, but yeah it's a tad on the large side. I wouldn't be opposed to it passing through (we need more non licensed Ideas sets), but I can't say I'd be willing to spend money on it.

Toa Smoke Monster Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 I like both versions of the model, though I don't think I would get either of them if it became a set. I still wish it luck in the review stage. Quote Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masterchirox580 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Lego ideas/cuusoo I haven't used that in years (does my account even exist anymore?), still though pretty good plane, although I can only imagine how expensive that will be, although I can say I'm pretty certain that it'll pass the review.

Ballom Nom Nom Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Many of the Ideas that get to the review stage seem implausibly large to be realistically made into sets that could sell well. The plane looks pretty cool, yes, but it's not 100+ dollars of cool by any means. ~B~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, only a handful of people on the web have revived that Shield Helicarrier that came out a couple of weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
