Earlier this year I shared that a LEGO builder by the name “GoodOlPrice” had submitted a LEGO Ideas creation inspired by The Haunted Mansion at Disney’s Magic Kingdom in Florida. This week, LEGO announced that the set was among 10 product ideas to make it into the review for the Second 2019 LEGO Ideas Review qualifying period, which ended on Monday, September 2.
Being included means the set gained the crowd-sourcing platform’s 10,000 supporter requirement between May and early September of 2019. Now, fans of the set will need to wait as LEGO puts the creators of these sets through a series of interviews and makes a decision on which sets, if any, will be turned into an actual LEGO product. When selecting a product LEGO takes into consideration not only the quality of the set, but the viability of the set based on licensing, sales projects, etc.
Earlier this year another LEGO Ideas submission inspired by The Addams Family Mansion made it into the First 2019 LEGO Ideas Review. With this week’s announcement, LEGO also revealed that the results of that round of reviews are expected to be announced this fall.
