You know what LEGO is. Do you know what LEGO Ideas is?
This is a program where people -- not normal people but Lego Ninja Expert people -- propose lego builds.

If a proposed build gets 10,000 votes, it goes into review. I suppose the review process is important, or all future LEGO projeects would be about Boaty…
