This isn’t my first post on the Bricklink Designer Program so I’m not going to go into all the details again. I’m hoping you’re up to speed by now. Voting ends on 20 October 2023 so go cast your votes now! The link is here.
And as a shameless plug, while you’re at Bricklink, you can check out the Bricks for Bricks Bricklink store to see what retired sets and minifigures are there. .
My top five picks to become sets are below (not in any particular order). For the past two rounds, I’ve gone one for five so let’s see if everyone agrees with me or not this round.
American Steam Locomotive
By Bricklink User: stijnd
Contains 2,141 pieces
As a train fan, I’d love to see more trains. This rendition of a steam locomotive is incredible and would look great going around your CITY layout. LEGO won’t produce trains that we want so let’s create some as a fan community. I haven’t seen a video of this one working, but it would look great even as a display piece or in a rail yard.
Octan Highway Truck
By Bricklink User: el_presidente0
Contains 531 pieces
The Octan brand is pretty classic and I think this set represents the brand well. Plus this one doesn’t have a ton of pieces so the cost should be lower. Maybe they’ll be able to add a logo into the final design. Even if it’s a sticker.
Picturesque Italy
By Bricklink User: levsi54
Contains 3,908 pieces
There were a lot of modulars in this round again. I didn’t want to pick a bunch again, but I really like this one. It has a good mix of buildings and would help to make your CITY look better with the addition of three well designed buildings instead of just one.
The Art of Chocolate
By Bricklink User: Bricester
Contains 2,574 pieces
This one could fit in a CITY, in a Winter Village, or just on it’s own. There are a bunch of play features and it is a great display piece. I think it would look great if you lit it up too. It’s fun to see a different theme as we haven’t seen something like this before.
Two-Seat Biplane 2.0
By Bricklink User: EmanueLego
Contains 2,268 pieces
I recommended a biplane before and I’ll try again. I like this design. It’s a great display piece and it looks like a fun build.
