LEGO is seeking fans to test early designs of Ideas sets

The LEGO Group is looking for fans to help test early designs of upcoming LEGO Ideas sets at LEGO World 2022.

As part of its ambition to ‘make fan-powered innovation even more fun, honest, and rewarding’ through LEGO Ideas, the LEGO Group is seeking members of the crowdsourcing platform to help test prototype designs of new products. There are currently nine LEGO Ideas sets in the development stage, having been given the green light in the review phase.

Any one of those could feasibly be part of the test, though if recent rumours are true, Truman Cheng’s Vincent van Gogh: The Starry Night is already in production. Given these are ‘early designs’, it seems more likely to be one of the recently-approved projects, such as Jaijai Lewis’s The Office or Andrea Lattanzio’s A-Frame Cabin. 

To be eligible to take part in the test, you’ll need to be at least 18 years old, be able to speak English, and have either previously submitted a project to LEGO Ideas, or participated in a contest on the platform. The 45-minute test will take place at LEGO World 2022 in Copenhagen on April 17 and 18, so you’ll also need to be attending that event.

If you fulfil those requirements, head over to the sign-up form and fill in your details. If you’re selected to take part, you’ll also be compensated with ‘a small LEGO set’. You’ve got until April 7 at 10am UK time to fill in the form.

I like to think of myself as a journalist first, LEGO fan second, but we all know that’s not really the case. Journalism does run through my veins, though, like some kind of weird literary blood – the sort that will no doubt one day lead to a stress-induced heart malfunction. It’s like smoking, only worse. Thankfully, I get to write about LEGO until then.

    Hello, my name is Isaac and I’ve been playing and building Legos ever since I could remember. It’s what inspired me to be a structural engineer. Now that I’m an adult and have a big boy income I collect alot of Legos. I’ve seen and built all sorts of Legos. As a kid I started with those big 1″egos and now I mainly collect nano legos. Being a reviewer on the side would be pretty fun and exciting. Let me know if you have any questions and would like to see my collection.

    Stupid that you have to be in attendance to an event. I’d have to fly out to Copenhagen for this and I don’t have the money to do so but I’d have loved to be a tester
