Over the past months, the LEGO Ideas review board evaluated 48 qualifying product ideas, all of which demonstrated a huge array of creativity and innovation. All these designs achieved the landmark ‘10k’ status between early Jan 2024 and early May 2024. Yesterday, the LEGO Ideas team announced that they have selected one of these projects to become an official LEGO Ideas set.
The chosen project is the LEGO Mineral Displays by ddf72. It’s interesting to note that this is the second time this project made it to 10k votes on LEGO Ideas, however, the first time around it wasn’t selected to become an official LEGO set. This second time, the designer made some changes to make sure that all the minerals could be built from currently available parts, and a display case was also added.
The collection is composed of 6 pieces: Rhodochrosite, Amethyst Geode, Black Tourmaline with Aquamarine, Orange Quartz, Emerald, and Pyrite. You can find more details and pictures of this project at this LEGO Ideas page, and you can see the full list of projects in this round at this LEGO Ideas page.

You know how the flower/botanical sets generally have some really clever construction and piece use? Gems and crystals would be… the exact opposite of that.
