Are you a fellow fan of the movie, Spaceballs? This Spaceballs Eagle 5 Spaceship LEGO set might just make it to store shelves sometime in the near future.
It’s part of the LEGO Ideas program, and the design needs a total of 10,000 supporters before LEGO will decide if the kit gets manufactured and sold in stores – or ends up as another cool, but not economically viable LEGO model.
Although other highly-skilled LEGO modelers have made versions of the Eagle 5 before, this set has just the right touches that LEGO wants in their store-sold kits.

How the LEGO Ideas Program Works
In order for this Spaceballs LEGO kit (or any potential kit for that matter) to make it to store shelves, 10,000 fans must support the design. Once the design reaches this level, LEGO will decide if the company should produce the kit and sell it. You can learn more about the LEGO Ideas program in the video below.
