In a match seemingly made in heaven, Danish toy giant LEGO has announced plans to release an official line of Minecraft-inspired LEGO. The licensing came following a user vote on LEGO's Cuusoo website asking for public pitches on new lines for the company to create. Block-based Minecraft seems a perfect fit for LEGO and the community agreed, voting Mojang's title their favourite new pitch.
Developer Mojang said in a quote on Cuusoo, "Minecraft and LEGO were meant to be together... We will work with the LEGO Group to secure a licensing agreement and donate the 1% royalty from LEGO CUUSOO to charity."

One of the great things about this article is that some of the money is going to charity and thats a great thing to hear! I hope they do well with it and that charity gets what they need!
