You've probably seen this, but yesterday Angus MacLane's Wall-E reached 10,000 on Cuusoo - er, LEGO Ideas. My guess is that this will be on a fast track to approval as a set. Given LEGO's existing relationship with Disney/Pixar, and Angus' prominent role at Pixar, all of the licensing should go through without a hitch. The subject matter is very much in LEGO's target market. Also it's a great marketing move - very similar to having the Mars Rover set designed by one of the guys who designed the real thing, having this set designed by the directing animator from the movie is sure to drive a lot of news stories when the set is ultimately released. I can't imagine them not making a set of this, and I'm looking forward to having this guy sitting on my desk at work.
