LEGO Announces Back to the Future Set

LEGO has just revealed the summer review results from their CUUSOO website, which is essentially the company's answer to Kickstarter: Modelers submit their own creations in hopes that LEGO will pick them up for wide distribution.

In June, four CUUSOO projects entered the first round of quarterly reviews for projects exceeding 10,000 supporters. Among the lineup: EVE Online Ships - Rifter, The Legend of Zelda, and the Modular Western Town. But it was Team BTTF's Back to the Future DeLorean Time Machine that was selected by LEGO for distribution. (Check out the video announcement below.)

Right now, exact dates and pricing have yet to be determined. However, LEGO hopes to have this set ready for toy shelves by mid-2013.

As for the fall review, the CUUSOO review board is already looking into its next round of candidates, including Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity Rover, USC Sandcrawler and Thinking with Portals.
