They seemed like a match made in modern pop culture heaven, and now it’s a reality. Lego and Minecraft will be joining forces! The Lego Cuusoo Blog has the details.
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. We can’t wait to show it to you—but it isn’t ready just yet. These things take time, so we appreciate your patience. More details are to come.
We’ll have more as it becomes available.
Lego and Minecraft Together At Last
Should be interesting to see what all comes of this. I'll probably get at least the cheapest set they make.
I'd be willing to bet this is more video game related then toy wise, given a Lego Mindcraft set would actually be fairly lack luster.
It's odd when you think about it. One would figure Lego'd have been the first to make a game like Mindcraft long before Mindcraft ever hit the scene.
It makes a lot more sense then the sub par action platformers they've been churning out.
I think it's a no-brainer for the two to get together, but why do I feel that Minecraft will get lost within the Lego-branded stuff?
I'll be really curious to see if the Minecraft side can stay distinct. With their other partnerships, they're so unique it's easy. Star Wars, Marvel, DC, Indiana Jones, etc. - all easily identifiable even in Lego form.
Lego Minecraft Set to be Revealed at Lego World Copenhagen
honestly, any kid who grew up in the 90s(like me) who remembers playing lego island would kill for this to be a game.
what do you mean?
oh come on guys...here. It was basically an exploration/building game you could finish in like an hour or two. You build the vehicles to get around the island. It was awesome for its time back in the mid 90s. Its pretty much the first of all the other lego games you see today.

Good to know we'll be seeing what they've got in the works in a week. I'm not against them making a video game, but I still think that sets are an absolute must.

id like to see minecraft using actual lego pieces tho...then id probably, maybe, play it.
Isn't there a guy on MineCraft recreating Pokemon?
So, uh...Anyone still actually care about this?

Looks kind of lame, to be honest. For $34.95 you might as well just buy the game.
I'm still trying to figure out why this is happening.
You don't get much for $35. Most of these are just standard Lego pieces you can get elsewhere. Sadly, I'll probably buy it just for the Creeper minifigure.
