Chris McVeigh has been building in this style for years, but it seems it wasn’t until he was hired by the LEGO Group that the company saw the potential in this unique way of building.
Star Wars and Batman have proven to be two of the LEGO Group’s most consistently successful licensed themes, so it perhaps not too surprising that this is where the new theme will begin. As BrickHeadz has demonstrated, the LEGO Group might be willing to experiment with more obscure and unusual licences over time.
