"Okay, we get it. You have a passionate community who wants to see Minecraft themed LEGO sets. It just took three server outages to prove it to us, but yeah, we're listening. ;-) We never expected a project to meet the threshold this quickly while still in beta. It took our first launch, the Shinkai 6500, 420 days to reach 1,000 votes in Japan. Hayabusa took 57 days to 1,000. With the start of Mojang’s Minecraft CUUSOO project it took just 48 hours to get 10,000 worldwide. We admire your passion as a community first and foremost of Minecraft fans, and second as LEGO fans.

We’re also pleased with how Mojang and the builders behind the original fan-created Minecraft project, “koalaexpert” and “suparMacho,” worked together in a collaborative and giving spirit. It’s a great story, and our hats are off to you for that.

So, without further adieu, we congratulate you on achieving 10,000 supporters and officially advance this project to the Review phase.Happy New Year! Since the Minecraft™ project reached 10,000 supporters on LEGO CUUSOO, many of you have been eagerly awaiting our update. Until now, the project has been in the LEGO Review—a stage before product development begins where a LEGO Jury evaluates the idea’s feasibility as a product and makes a decision.

We're happy to announce that the Minecraft project on LEGO CUUSOO has passed the LEGO review and we are now developing a concept that celebrates the best aspects of building with the LEGO system and in Minecraft and we can’t wait to show it to you—but we aren’t ready just yet. These things take time, so we appreciate your patience. More details are to come. " -Lego

This is indeed very exciting news. I wonder if there will be a LEGO MineCraft video game to? A video game of a video game?

*points to DesignByMe from Lego*
We could always create our own sets though, at least within the last four years. :3

I agree. It looks pretty simple to replicate and create our own minecraft blocks, tools, animals, players, etc. We just need a ton of plates. And when I mean blocks, I mean this:



Not the tiny minifig sized models.

Someone ought to build a whole map with this, completely solid.

*starts building Creepers with Lego Mindstorms*

So just regular Legos with a Minecraft sticker on the side of the box and 10 dollars more than regular price?

Good ol' Lego Systems Inc.
I prefer Megablocks over Lego most of the time because of the more exotic sets they have.
Halo, Dragon Wars, and RPG sets, just to name a few.
They're cheaper than the Lego brand as well, which is very interesting because of how well built they are.
