The LEGO Idea team just announced the results of the first round of review phases in 2021, a one-day-late announcement that tells us which sets will stand out from the record 57 designs. And this result is both expected and unexpected.
Our favorite work, Jazz Quartet, was reviewed and approved, which was very happy. In addition, Office will also become the official Idea set.
In addition to these two already confirmed works, the design of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is still in the consideration stage, and its fate will be announced when the results of the next review in early 2022 are announced.
It is worth mentioning that the design of the Jazz Quartet was not originally submitted directly to Idea, but the winning work in the "Sound of Music" competition on the Idea platform, coupled with the previously released Fender Stratocaster guitar, making Jazz Quartet the second production set to come out of the competition.
Unexpectedly, the sitcom "Office", which is very popular in foreign countries, was actually reviewed this time. Ideas user Lego The Office submitted the design for the second time, and the dream will finally come true. You know, this is the fourth office drama set to receive 10,000 votes, and although it is widely loved around the world, Lego has been rejecting these works, and now it seems that this time they have changed their attention.
This moment should have been particularly painful for fan designer SoGenius106, who also managed to win a 10K spot on the "Office" design in this round of judging, but was rejected. The designer who created the first 10,000-vote work for The Office theoffice_lego may be angry and frustrated now, too.
The design of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is also in the second review stage, although its mass production path is uncertain.
There are currently 8 Ideas titles in development, but 21330 Will Be Released in a few days, while the others will not arrive until 2022-2023.

There may also be a lot of disappointed supporters and fans this time, as about 96.5% of the 57 designs will not be mass-produced, so a large percentage of supporters may not get the official set they like. Let's hope that the future BrickLink Designer Program will give us crowdfunding opportunities.
There are still 34 more works under review, and the results will be announced in early 2022.
