If you consider yourself a diehard fan of adult-grade Lego, you might want to be hovering over these buy buttons<\/a> on Wednesday, February 7th, at 11AM ET. That\u2019s when Lego will begin selling five limited-edition sets that are literally a fan dream come true: fans entered a BrickLink Designer Program contest to create these Lego sets all by themselves, and they\u2019ll get 5 percent of the proceeds! <\/p>\n<\/div>\n They\u2019re also just really cool builds. I\u2019m definitely eying the $380 Mountain Fortress that looks like an excellent counterpart to my Lion Knight\u2019s Castle<\/a>, the $50 Snack Shack that reminds me of a shrimp truck I loved in Hawaii, and the $320 Parisian Street with its timeless Haussmann architecture<\/a> and charming storefronts. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n I\u2019ll tell you more about the contest below. For now, here are the sets! <\/p>\n<\/div>\n Image: BrickLink Designer Program<\/cite><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Image: BrickLink Designer Program<\/cite><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Image: BrickLink Designer Program<\/cite><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Lego believes the sets should ship in July 2024, but \u201cactual dates and shipping times may vary.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Lego will also be making more of these fan-designed sets than ever before. While previous fan creations<\/a> were limited to 10,000 copies or fewer, and Lego originally announced it would be making up to 20,000 of this batch, the company now says the limit is 30,000. That means these sets may not be as valuable for collectors as previous batches, most of which have already doubled in value<\/a>, but hopefully, that means fewer scalpers! <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
