Cuusoo Doctor Who Lego Sets – More Designs Roll In
Doctor Who Lego Sets – The Designs Roll In
An update on Lego’s Cuusoo design site suggests that Doctor Who Lego sets are now possible.
You can send in designs for Lego sets and if it receives 10,000 votes or more there is possibility it will be considered for release under the Lego brand.
Doctor Who has always been rejected in the past due to licensing issues – until now
We do not know why this has happened and what this means for Character building. Character currently hold the master toy licence for Doctor Who products.

License Conflicts and Resolutions
Sometimes we have to turn down project submissions that refer to specific brands or licensed properties. We do this to avoid getting your hopes up for something we know we aren’t able to make. In these cases, we already know the LEGO Group can’t secure licensing rights to produce construction toys based on a particular brand or property, due to a conflicting interest with a third party.
If such a conflict goes away, we’ll then be able to accept projects based on a particular brand or license.
The Fine Print:
If your project was previously turned down, archived, or deleted due to a licensing conflict that is now resolved, you may re-submit it as a new project. Supporters from past projects cannot be applied to a future project.
Resolved Past Licensing Conflicts
We now welcome projects based on the following licenses that used to have conflicts:

March 11th, 2014 - 2:41pmLove the one at the top! The Tardis is brilliant in that. I like the big 9th/10th Doctor Tardis too, but Lego would be unlikely to make one that size, I believe (although you never know.) I love the second 11th Doctor one too, especially the transparent floor, great building technique for that.

March 9th, 2014 - 7:33pmIs it just me or does the Lego daleks look awful? All the other villains look great but the daleks to me look terrible!

March 9th, 2014 - 7:35pmno its me too there rubbish keep going character biulding!

March 9th, 2014 - 7:36pmNo you’re spot on they’re terrible.
the astronaut of death
March 9th, 2014 - 7:39pmWell there only sets fans have put together with bits of Lego of cause there not going to be that great.
nparker
March 11th, 2014 - 2:20pmI don’t agree at all, my first thought when I saw them was “they are the best Lego versions of Daleks ever!” They have the right proportions, almost.
That’s said, Lego would likely make new pieces for Daleks.
DoctorArkham
March 9th, 2014 - 7:25pmGuess what? One paticular project has over 8,000 supporters- we’re almost there! However theres still the reviewing process and ugh…. however even if it doesn’t make it LEGO sometimes still consider it for a future release so maybe all hope isnt lost.
P.S. Some guy on Cuusoo was telling a guy how he was a massive fan, then went on to say that ‘An Unearthly Child’ has been lost for years and still is!!!!

March 8th, 2014 - 9:58pmI like to hope that they have started taking in Doctor Who entries as the BBC have allowed them to have the Sherlock license – for the Sherlock set that is ‘in review’ right now – and that Doctor Who and Sherlock licenses go together – and therefore allowing a Doctor Who set to become reality.
Of course, I am only hoping that the BBC have given LEGO the Sherlock license, I feel it would be a massive shame if they didn’t!
the paternoster gang
March 8th, 2014 - 10:45pmI am also hopeful for Lego to get the Sherlock license. I’d say the likelihood is that they have as I don’t believe anyone has the Sherlock license yet.
Sam Bentley
March 8th, 2014 - 10:55pmI know Big Chief have produced some 1:6 Scale figures, like they have done with Doctor Who – but I doubt they have the license. So, maybe they have handed the license over to LEGO – I do think they would include the DW license with Sherlock, those two go hand in hand.
Anonymous
March 9th, 2014 - 12:03amWhy would they include Sherlock with Doctor Who? Other than the fact they share a producer/writer there is no connection between the two?
Let’s face it, to get access to Doctor Who you need to sign up for two separate license agreements (one covering 1963-2009 and the other 2010-present) they are not going to have added an entirely different show to it.

March 13th, 2014 - 8:12pmDoctor Who and Sherlock have many things in common, but most of them are extremely obscure (Like the end scenes to The Sign of Three/The Green Death).
Danny
March 8th, 2014 - 6:51pmThese look epic!

March 8th, 2014 - 6:11pmDon’t like any of the dalek ones, would he better of they made them more like the character building ones, and by the way booboo I’ve changed my email 🙂

March 8th, 2014 - 12:06pm10’s tardis and Bessie are my favorite. Could be used with CB mini figs.

March 8th, 2014 - 11:08amhow do you enter
Dominic Kane
March 8th, 2014 - 10:51ami hope they keep character building because the mini figures are way better then lego figures
callum simmons
March 9th, 2014 - 9:39pmIn sculpt perhaps but not in quality of plastic/detail in printing. Plus Lego can show more than one emotion due to the double sided expression head. You could have a determined look on one side of the doctor then on the other a jovial smile or a look of anger or sadness/surprise. Also Lego make far superior moulded parts for hair and head wear, Just look at the 2013 teenage mutant ninja turtles figures or the general zod man of steel figures.and you’ll see quality unmatched!
nparker
March 11th, 2014 - 2:22pmI agree with Callum, definitely- and the minifigure is iconic too!
CyberSlave2014
March 8th, 2014 - 10:48amI really like the one with all the minifigures and its got like 6 Doctors 5 Companions and Weeping Angel and Cyberman.
P.S A picture is up there twice
The Living Shadow
March 7th, 2014 - 9:05pmI love the big Tardis! It looks great and looks like a really fun build!
Mels
March 6th, 2014 - 8:57amI actually like these a lot better than the CB range. LEGO will open up a lot of opportunities for the DW brand if they do go ahead with any of these… they have the money/experience to make a more extensive range, and as others have already mentioned, have video game and other areas of media they could add to the line up.
I imagine Character Options would be furious if LEGO actually did pick up the DW licence – especially if the LEGO products became widely available. I think a lot of children/parents would buy LEGO products over CB.
Dalek Sec
March 9th, 2014 - 9:50amWell lego makes better, less breakable, and accurate sets. Character building makes better more characteristic figures. But the plastic isn’t very good on them, and the paint ran off my cyber leader cb. Also it would be fun if doctor who character building had games and things. Nevertheless I am existed for Lego but the character options doctor who era seems to be dying.
bobby sand which
March 6th, 2014 - 7:48ami love it
CG
March 5th, 2014 - 10:58pmI hope they at least make 1 set and then maybe that would open the opportunities to make more.
Radburn
March 5th, 2014 - 8:21pmInstead of people talking about this & that, it would be much more preferably to have facts ~
(ie) CB to issue a statement as to what is happening or Lego to confirm why?
booboo
March 5th, 2014 - 8:24pmCouldn’t agree more – leads to wild speculation which may harm both brands.

March 5th, 2014 - 7:48pmYeah I notice that too!

March 4th, 2014 - 9:11amIt is amazing…
The set that was winning, “Doctor Who and companions” is now losing and has 1438 supporters. However, another Doctor Who cuusoo set called “Doctor Who” is winning with flying colours with 4521 votes! Fingers crossed for that set to be produced now!

March 2nd, 2014 - 7:45pmI like Bessie and the opening TARDIS, thats it, if a classic console is made, it will already be further than the Character classic line.

March 2nd, 2014 - 6:58pmEvery time lego bring out a series or set of Lego they often make a game of it (e.g: Batman, MARVEL, Indiana Jones, LEGO Movie etc) so MAYBE if some of these go ahead there could be a LEGO Doctor Who game eventually! (Not likely though)
nparker
March 11th, 2014 - 2:47pmA game would be brilliant! The Lego games are some of my favourite video games, if not my favourites, and a Doctor Who one would work really well. Just think of all the characters you could play as, or the different abilities each could have!
callum simmons
March 17th, 2014 - 9:19pmLove that Idea! When you respawn you could regenerate!! They could get the actors to voice the characters and make up a story maybe where capaldi’s doctor meets up with some of the previous doctors. It could be a Lego made story like they did with Lego batman 2 and Lego Marvel superheroes. They could use archive sound clips for doctors 1-3 and the rest could voice their respective doctors. maybe rather than just respawning every time you loose a heart you regenerate and when you’ve used all 13 you regenerate!
