Potential LEGO dinosaur sets

First let me apologize if this is either old or needs to be elsewhere. I saw one of these shown in the Jurrasic World thread and just thought it was a fan made one off. Well, that is only partially true. Apparently Lego takes fan made ideas and reviews them for possible store release and I wanted to share with you all to help these projects get support. It doesn't cost anything it just shows that there is interest in these designs. This person has a Stegosaurus, I-Rex, And a T-Rex (which is already in the Review stage. Hopefully it will happen, have a look if you haven't seen them as I think they look very nice...though the wrists are unfortunately pronated $:-\$

Can't take a look at it without logging in on that site, and I don't have an account.

The idea of posting fanmade Lego sets and Lego then actually promising to build them when a certain number of likes is reached has been around for a few years now. There was this awesome JP Gate/T-Rex/Explorer set that got the amount of likes required, but because Lego didn't have the license to make it, it didn't materialize then. It might now, considering it seems Lego sort of has a license for JP now.

Sorry, didn't realize you needed to be logged in to see. These are actually made by the same individual as the playlet idea is still there but unfortunately not approved.

Here is the I-Rex

Stegosaurus and I-Rex look great! Less fond of the T-Rex though.

I've seen the T rex before, I wish it had more teeth.

Also, I think it was a great design to use a clip piece for the mouth of the stegosaurus! Very innovative.

I agree the T-Rex need teeth like the I-Rex does, but otherwise I was really impressed by these.

I've seen the T Rex and Stegosaurus before, but the I Rex is new. Good idea posting them here! Now that Lego has JW rights hopefully at least one of these will pass. If not maybe the designer will release instructions
