Hapori Tohu Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Minecraft players rejoice! The <a href='http://legocuusoo.posterous.com/minecraft-lego-cuusoo-project-passes-lego-rev-54968' target='offsite'>Lego CUUSOO Blog</a> announced this morning that the project to create a Minecraft-themed set has passed the review stage and is now in the works! The post says that they are "developing a concept that celebrates the best aspects of building with the LEGO system and in Minecraft." Does this mean working nether portals? Custom diamond blocks? Exploding creeper figures? The only way to know is to wait. In the meantime, we better get back to building, both in game and out.

Toa of Nerds Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Lego and Minecraft were meant for each other. I'm just surprised it took them this long to figure it out.-don't touch my pocket protector Quote Three great comedies at one low, low price....NOTHING!

Ektris Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 An exploding Creeper figure? Heck yes! :PHaha, I'm so glad this passed review. My only hope now is that it doesn't take the Minecraft set(s) to be released as long as it did for the Hayabusa. It would be a good idea to get these out while there's still a lot of interest...~|ET|~ Quote E-T... Phone home. "He walks among us, but he is not one of us."

Serpent of Fire Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Can't wait to see what they come up with. Even if its just a bucket of square bricks, it will still be awesome. Quote I was there when Bionicle started in 2001. The next ten years were a great run. Sadly, all things must come to an end. But I will stop by and check in from time to time.

Legolover-361 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Intriguing. I've played only a free online version of Minecraft (no multiplayer), but it's quite addictive. Hopefully the Lego sets will be the same. Quote (( BZPRPG profiles: Kynaera, Nova )) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obsessionist Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Actual TNT Lego parts that explode would be cool. Illegal, but cool. I hope the sets turn out well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeluNumber1 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 I'm hoping this comes to the US. I'm very happy about this development; only two other sets have been released prior to this. So, awsesome! Quote Why are orange and black such a good color Combination ? Purple is pretty, and so is blue. Pink hurts your eyes, green is quite mellowing, black is very threatning, red is cool, orange is SO awesome, yellow's hard to read... But you can't see white at all! Oh, wait. I forgot brown. Here's my thoughts: If a person tells the truth and says, " I always lie," Is he lying? Or is he telling the truth? And what has a mouth, but no head, and a body, but no torso? Do caterpillars like to tend to supporting colum of stone's every need? Or is that name misleading by nature? Speaking of nature, why are the children of animals called offspring? don't many young beasts come alive in spring, and thus, should be called onspring? Heeeeeeyy..... I got the first post on a page for the first time. Who knows; it may happen again. What the... It did happen again... and again... YEAH! I'M ENCOUNTERING PROTODERMIS!

P~M Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Brilliant idea:The bricks would have small RFID chips in them that a special scanner would recognize, so when you build a LEGO Minecraft creation, you can scan it in and it would appear ie Minecraft!Horrible, I know. --CV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shmid Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Maybe they'll make something like Heroica: Make a bunch of mini-sets that you can combine to make a bigger world! Now that would be cool!

Meiko Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I just recently got into Minecraft, right after I played it for the first time! I haven't bought it for myself yet, because I don't think it would do the best on my current computer. I'll definitely get this set though, because it's a good bundle of parts for my collection, and it'll be a real cool collector's item.

Kahu Rider 13 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I don't play Minecraft, but some of the pics on the lego minecraft page look pretty coolNow, I must admit, that's not something I ever thought I'd hear, since Minecraft is known for the quality of its gameplay, not its graphics .When I heard about the idea, I had some concerns about how well this would actually work. Hopefully, this means that LEGO have seen something that I haven't - and in any case, should they decide to go ahead with this, I hope they can prove me wrong and succeed with it. I'd probably buy one or two of the sets myself! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aanchir Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I hope it's not Japan-only...Just FYI for everyone, the only reason the previous two Cuusoo sets were Japan-only is because at the time they were submitted and voted on, the Cuusoo service itself was Japan-only. Minecraft was the first successful proposal to be submitted and approved on the international site; thus, it goes without saying that it will be an international release.Glad to see feedback, especially since some people were beginning to make baseless assumptions that the Minecraft proposal would for some reason never end up becoming an actual product.

Laughing Man Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 hmm not too thrilled with the idea of promoting minecraft to kids as it's multiplayer has ircs...and not all servers have filters on themand you can build anything.You're kidding, right? Star Wars had intense violence including depiction of decapitations, fairly disturbing scenes (the end of Revenge of the Sith, anyone?) and occasional profanity, yet there are Lego sets of it. The Batman comics contain all that (and in greater levels) plus some other not-so-family-friendly content, yet there are Lego sets of it. Heck, Bionicle itself had content that could be considered more "inappropriate" than anything in Minecraft. The fact that people's personal servers often don't have language filtering means nothing in regards to Lego. And as for your "build anything" point, well, the exact same could be said for Lego itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avohkah Tamer Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Oh, and when wandering about at night or in caves you always have the fear of:[*]lava[*]monsters[*]just plain dying[*]losing tons of progress to the aboveMaking it a very scary game. It should be put in the Horror catagory.Alright, so, i'm not being too serious about my 4th reasoning, but could someone respond to this post and defend LEGO® Minecraft™?If the monsters or lava make the game too difficult or scary for a player, there's the Peaceful difficulty level as well as Creative Mode easily accessible in the options. Your experience in Minecraft is completely what you make of it.Minecraft is a sandbox game where you can use your creativity to build anything you want out of a wide selection of blocks.LEGO is a Danish toy with which you can use your creativity to build anything you want out of a wide selection of blocks.I fail to see how these two ideas wouldn't fit well together; especially considering the action components of Minecraft (Tools! Minecarts! Swords! Monsters!) that would help make a very marketable, fun playset not unlike many other LEGO set themes.~ (A VTOAHMKEARH) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sumiki Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 (edited) As an apathetic bystander to most gaming in general, I care not that LEGO is producing these sets one way or another. I am interested to see how they'll create Minecraft sets, considering bricks are not blocks.I'd love to see them use this opportunity to bring back the old Modulex parts, which were actually square. I'd snatch up every last one of them if they did that, even though I don't give a fig about Minecraft.

Of course, I can't be sure they'd do that. But it's possible.
