“Downton Abbey” is a drama that depicts the lives of the Crawley family and those around them as they face inheritance issues and societal changes triggered by the sinking of the Titanic on April 14, 1912. A film adaptation was also made.

The series includes numerous mini-figures of the characters. The purple-clad dowager is Violet Crawley, played by Maggie Smith, who is also known for her role as Professor McGonagall in the Harry Potter series.

What are the chances of it being commercialized?

This is the second time that the creator, BRO3, has advanced to the review stage.

Buildings and local themes have become more likely to pass the LEGO® Ideas review compared to before, but since Downton Abbey is less well-known compared to other movies and dramas adopted by LEGO® Ideas, passing the review is not expected to be easy.
