here is what The website posted on their blog today. -
"Happy New Year! Since the Minecraft™ project reached 10,000 supporters on LEGO® CUUSOO, many of you have been eagerly awaiting our update. Until now, the project has been in the LEGO Review—a stage before product development begins where a LEGO Jury evaluates the idea’s feasibility as a product and makes a decision.
We're happy to announce that the Minecraft project on LEGO CUUSOO has passed the LEGO review and we are now developing a concept that celebrates the best aspects of building with the LEGO system and in Minecraft. We can’t wait to show it to you—but it isn't ready just yet. These things take time, so we appreciate your patience. More details are to come."
I will be getting more into this as time goes on and also, please tell me what you would like to see be made into a minecraft lego set! :)

One more thing for today, My other friend Mark Cooper aka Astragali of "The Minecraft Scribe" just released a new blog called "The Digital Quill" a place to share creative, non minecraft stuff.
Just for a notice/warning thing, Astragali said this -
"My other blog, The Minecraft Scribe, is PG-13. However, my postings to The Digital Quill may venture into R-rated territory (for language) from time to time. I think that, should that happen, I’ll place an NSFW (Not Safe For Work) advisory at the start of the post, rather than my original intention, which was to just make a blanket statement here of “Consider yourself warned.”
so please go and check it out. It's just starting out but keep an eye on it, you never know what Astra's gonna write next! :)
that's it for now. As always please stay tuned for more news and updates! :D
