Overview
- The contest was announced at New York Comic Con on Saturday and is now running as a LEGO Ideas challenge that invites public submissions.
- Fans may enter original builds in three categories — vehicles, characters, and scenes — with submissions accepted now on the LEGO Ideas platform.
- Community voting is set to take place in December with winners to be announced in early 2027 and any selected designs undergoing edits by the LEGO design team before production.
- Kevin Smith unveiled the initiative on the NYCC panel and tied the challenge to the Star Wars/Marvel: Hope Assembles comic project, linking the contest to broader franchise promotion.
- The program follows LEGO Ideas’ established path for fan-to-shelf sets, gives creators potential profit share and exposure, and briefly experienced a 404 error on the contest page as publishers reported the rollout.
