Another “Leica Camera History” project on Lego Ideas

By LR admin | Published: November 5, 2022

I have already covered plenty of Lego Leica camera projects in the past. At one point I even developed my own Lego Leica camera – see the picture here.

There is another new Leica project on Lego Ideas called “Leica Camera History”. Hopefully, this time we will get the needed 10,000 votes in order for Lego to accept the design. Please register for Lego Ideas and support the project by clicking the “Support” button. I am not connected/related to any of the Leica Lego projects, I just want to be able to purchase the Leica Lego cameras.

Here is the description of the project with additional pictures:
