The Bricklink AFOL Designer Program is a unique initiative that celebrates the creativity and passion of adult fans of LEGO (AFOLs) by providing them with a platform to design and produce their own custom sets. This program invites talented designers from the AFOL community to submit their original concepts, which are then evaluated for production. By bridging the gap between hobbyists and official LEGO offerings, the program empowers fans to bring their imaginative ideas to life, fostering a sense of collaboration and innovation within the LEGO community. Participants in the AFOL Designer Program not only have the opportunity to showcase their designs but also to engage with fellow enthusiasts and collectors. Each selected project is produced in limited quantities, making these sets highly sought after and unique additions to any collection. The program emphasizes the importance of community feedback, allowing fans to vote on their favorite designs, ensuring that the final products resonate with the broader LEGO audience. This initiative not only highlights the artistic talents of AFOLs but also reinforces the idea that LEGO is more than just a toy; it is a medium for storytelling, creativity, and connection among fans of all ages.
Within the LEGO Bricklink series, the AFOL Designer Program sub-theme started in 2019 with the set LEGO BL19010 Hot Shot Carnival, LEGO BL19013 Steampunk Mini Chess, LEGO BL19003 Skyline Express. To date, there are 13 sets, 13 of which are retired. To acquire all LEGO Bricklink AFOL Designer Program sets at their original retail price would have cost $1,383. These sets are now valued at $6,962, showing an increase of $5,579 (403%), corresponding to an average LEGO investment yield of 33% annually. There are 24 minifigures within this sub-theme.
