Satellite Reign developer wakes up to find his 30th Anniversary Ghostbusters LEGO model greenlit for production
I know this news is not videogame related but we consider it to be cool so we post it anyway 
.
Here is the Press Release we received:
Satellite Reign Environmental Artist Brent Waller is a LEGO fan - and his Ghostbusters vehicle and minifigure set is to make it into production as his wins the latest LEGO cuusoo challenge
We’ve got that Friday feeling and we can’t resist sharing a feelgood story for the weekend. LEGO? Ghostbusters? A fan’s dream come true? What’s not to like…
5 Lives Studios very own Brent Waller (currently working as lead environmental artist on Kickstarter success Satellite Reign) is something of a LEGO nut - and now a LEGO community celebrity.
Ghostbusters LEGO CUUSOO is a website where LEGO fans can submit ideas for models to be put into production - if a submission gains 10,000 supporters, it will be considered during an official review process. Brent’s ECTO-1 car and Ghostbusters team minifigures, hitting the sweet spot of the cult movie’s 30th Anniversary, passed muster (only the seventh kit to be approved since the scheme started in 2008) and with commercial modifications will be made into a retail LEGO kit.
“I grew up with a love of LEGO, video games and movies like Ghostbusters, so it’s a dream come true to have my hand in designing an official LEGO set based on Ghostbusters,” explained Brent.
Bob, yesterday Brent is also the designer of an exclusive hand-made LEGO minifigure ‘Bob’, available to the highest tier Kickstarter supporters of project Satellite Reign. Bet those will be worth a bob or two (ahem) given Brent’s new found community kudos.
