The LEGO Ideas submission-based section lets fans submit their own LEGO sets, and if they gain enough support, LEGO makes them available. It's an incredible fan outreach that has produced some very cool sets already. Now, two Star Wars sets are on their way to reality, with one up for review and another gaining steam.

The newer one is "I Am Your Father" and it's the pivotal moment in Cloud City on Bespin. The set, which you can see in the video above compared to the actual scene from the film, has 1482 bricks, and builds out the walkway and spire where Luke learns that Darth Vader is his father. You can see more screenshots and support it here.

Currently under review is the Jedi High Council Chamber, as seen on Coruscant in the prequels and Star Wars: The Clone Wars. The set has windows and a working door, plus seats for all the members of the council, most of whom have been released in other sets. It gained the 10,000 supporter minimum, and began review this month, the first 2016 review on LEGO ideas.
