Lego Ideas is a program that lets anyone with an idea for a new Lego set get their concept in front of the decision-makers who can turn it into toy bricks. The next review period for those sets will begin in January 2025, and A fanmade concept for PlayStation 2 made from Lego The LEGO Review Board has received enough support in time to be officially considered.
To be considered for collective creation and distribution for a set submitted through LEGO Ideas, It must first get 10,000 supporters. So you might think that submitting an idea for something isn't enough to build a Lego set. You need to create models that demonstrate how it will look and detail how Lego can make the set a reality. Sure, a PS2 made of Lego would be cool, but it needs someone with a vision of how to possibly make it possible to get enough support to officially get Lego's attention.

The LEGO PS2 concept has hit 10,000 backers
Enough for Lego to officially consider making it a reality
The set's disc tray can be opened, and the images also show the inside of the Lego console. What's not pictured, but mentioned in the description, is the seven orbs you'll find on the inside of the controller. Hat tip to the orbs you see on the PS2's start-up screen. The set hit 10,000 supporters on December 27, 2024, That means it went under the wire for consideration in Lego's upcoming review period.
Lego will consider a number of things when reviewing a set, including taking it from concept to reality, evaluating playability, and whether it's consistent with the Lego brand. The biggest potential stumbling block for the set will be whether PlayStation wants to play ball. Although Lego liked the idea, it couldn't make a PS2 set without giving PlayStation a go.
PlayStation and Lego have a working relationship, so there's definitely a chance. Lego Horizon Adventures is less than two months old, and there's a new Lego Horizon set coming out in 2025. PlayStation might also like the idea of turning its best-selling console into a toy because its rivals are ahead of the game in this regard. Nintendo has the Lego NES set, and the Xbox 360 was turned into a Mega set by Mattel.
