Ahem; Lego, please. But yeah, please don't let them fall into the hands of an inferior brick manufacturer like they did with Halo!

The question is whether or not Lego would go with Destiny; by some accounts they've been quite picky about licensed IPs they choose to partner on. Apparently they're not keen on selling Lego that feature guns (the Star Wars sets are a bit more fantastical so are an exception to the rule, and the other guns they sell in sets tend to be more historical in setting).

If Lego don't make any official sets, then maybe we should petition Brick Arms to release some custom Destiny weapons (they've done some great Halo-inspired weapons in the past)?

Yep, they aim to avoid using any realistic weaponry/equipment that largely resembles anything used today in conflicts around the world - anything kids are likely to see in the news or hear about somewhere. Space guns, cowboys and pirates manage to avoid this as far as Lego are concerned, while Halo got a little too close for the most part, I'm guessing. I suspect Destiny is the same, if not closer to what Lego aim to avoid. Unfortunate.

That does sound disappointingly likely to be the case, what with almost all of Destiny's weapons far more closely resembling contemporary firearms.

So, to Brick Arms it is then!

Hey if we can't get LEGO, we can still hope Lincoln Logs snatches up the IP, right?

Custom printed, hand-painted minifigures. Awesome!

Oh, man... those are spectacular. Drooling!
