Oct 26, 2022 I hope they make more animations like this for product presentations, this is one of the best I've seen in a long time.

Oct 19, 2022 If I remember correctly this was all through a LEGO Ideas challenge, so somehow the team was committed, they were obliged to release a set.Ah I had no idea about that 🤐

Oct 18, 2022 Here is an article about it: https://brick.is/blog/post/111/lego-reveals-they-came-close-to-cancelling-21337-table-football-set-due-to-problematic-model-scale Basically, they tried several scales and...Oh I see, interesting, it makes me wonder if using technic parts would have given the board some more robustness, I don't know if they tested that too, because with normal parts it makes sense that it would break when making sudden movements.
But actually this surprises me even more, I mean wasn't playability supposed to be an important factor in the LEGO Ideas review? It's a bit contradictory that if this set didn't comply with that, they still released it 🤷
Edit. I've just seen what the original idea was, quite a change.
I get the feeling that a lot of the pieces could be crossed by the typical technic axles, I'm not sure if the designer took that into account, if even with the use of axles it was ruined then it was a big problem.

Oct 17, 2022 No idea, but as you say, a missed opportunity I think the size they've released the set at is unplayable and it's a shame because I think it was potentially one of the best sets/ideas in terms of playability, it reminded me of the line of board games they released a few years ago, imagine if they had made them tiny....

Oct 14, 2022 It looks amazing, honestly I was surprised by the release price, it's pretty good, I'm considering buying it on Steam.

Oct 14, 2022 I think also the repercussion, Futurama ended back in 2013 maybe is also a factor, among the new generations is not such a popular series (although it is a great series, nothing against it 😅).

Oct 9, 2022 Pretty nifty, I guess it's pretty obvious they do it to save parts and keep prices down but it would have been cool to have a more realistic representation like the one in the video for the Minecraft...Yep the LEGO solution is a lot more cost effective than the one in the video, but certainly the sets in the video look a lot better.
That would make sense I don't doubt, but I'm glad we agree that they have to improve the designs, even if they focus on another audience they don't have to make fools of them!
