LEGO said today that the iMac G3 project submitted for review on its Ideas site has been moved to Parking lot status, meaning it hasn’t been ruled out and could still potentially be made into an official LEGO set.
On its Ideas website, LEGO allows fans to submit models and suggestions for future LEGO sets. Any project that gets at least 10,000 votes is submitted to the LEGO review board and has a chance to become a LEGO set. In August 2025, LEGO fan Terauma submitted a recreation of Apple’s 1998 iMac G3 in Bondi Blue.

The LEGO creation captures the distinctive look of the iMac G3, with an all-in-one computing design, “hockey puck” mouse, matching keyboard and accompanying cables. The design uses translucent blue LEGO pieces in a shade close to Bondi Blue, and the interior features details like a cathode ray tube and circuit board.
The design managed to reach 10,000 supporters to be included in the LEGO Ideas team, and LEGO considered making it into a set. The parking status means that LEGO needs more time to review the project and, in this case, LEGO could contact Apple for permission.

Many Ideas set proposals are rejected quickly, so it’s somewhat promising that LEGO is taking the time to further consider creating a LEGO iMac G3 set. The LEGO Downton Abbey and The Old Man and the Sea sets were in the parking lot before going into production.
The third round of 2025 idea review involving the iMac G3 set had 75 eligible ideas in total. Three were chosen to become sets, four (including the iMac G3) were given parking status for further review, and the rest were rejected. Projects can remain in the parking lot for up to three review periods before a final decision is made.
LEGO will share updates in the future on whether the iMac G3 project will move forward or be rejected. A LEGO Apple Store proposal went through the same process, but it was roundly rejected.
