Last official update was in April, not a peep since then. Lego Rifter linky

Lego employees are no stranger to the soon™, or so it seems.

The review is still going.
They want to announce the result of all 4 summer-reviews at once... so it's gonna take some more time.

You could just go to a Lego store, buy all the individual pieces yourself and build one. lego store

Lego ran into problems when trying to make the proper wrecked scaffolding pieces needed to recreate the minmatar ships. Also, its hard to get the proper rust look on smooth plastic blocks.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

The rifter is damned sexy. The Merlin is also.
I like the Templar (i saw on the site earlier) and the Einherji.
Reaper is super OMFGBUYITBUYITBUYITNAONAONAO!
Rokh is nice looking.
Not a fan of the Raven and the Megathron. They really need to be bigger so you can use more pieces in creating the proper shapes.
The Myrmidon is ugly as hell. Sorry, no two ways about it. Needs more SNOT.

De'Veldrin's Corollary (to Malcanis' Law): Any idea that seeks to limit the ability of a large nullsec bloc to do something in the name of allowing more small groups into sov null will inevitably make it that much harder for small groups to enter sov null.

maybe CCP decided to rebuilt the lego parts into something cool, like a star wars ship :D

I very much agree... Kentt also fixed it to be more rusty-like too...

Sad that alot of the good builds (the drone fighters included) are not getting as much recognition as they should. The Reaper should be up to 100 for how epic the thing is.

ok my thoughts

Merlin + 1
Raven + 1
Einherji + 1
Reaper + 1 but man change the colours on it - its a minmatar rust bucket not a grey caldari lego ship. when the colors are fixed it will go to + 2
Rokh - eh ok
Myrmidon - +2

and as for that mega? OMG MY EYES!!!! Please please please rethink it. Colors and proportions are all wrong.

Why Can't I have a picture signature.

Also please support graphical immersion, bring back the art that brought people to EvE online originaly.

according to the most recent news from the lego site at 20/12/2012, the rifter doesn't meet the requirements needed to bring the model into the productionline.

now i really had hope it would make it through the judgement, i have to find the model and the lego that's been used to build the ship. my wife knows i would want it for my birthday. :)

any ideas what lego has been used? with a little more detail i may be able to build this rifter and it will get a prominent place on my desk!
