My first thought was Bionicle. Obviously, a Bionicle project failed to go through in the first wave, but perhaps a different project would find greater success?

That’s quite an interesting change, and I don’t think it’s a bad one! Judging by what seems to be the BDP’s main audience we’ll probably get stuff like classic space, Blacktron etc., but maybe some more recent original themes will get their share as well. I’ll never give up hope for a new Jack Stone set

this probably explan WHY so many cool sets base off cool themes like power miners or exo force and of couse Bionicle (and Herofactory) never achually get picked up and instand we just get another big castle that only people with big pockets can buy.
hopefully this change is for the better and we get to see more unique stuff (that hopefully gets voted and picked up of couse)

Are you allowed to submit previously rejected LEGO Ideas Projects? I was thinking @Axelford 's Great Spirit Robot project from a few years ago would be perfect to be submitted here.
I don’t know if @Axelford is still active in the community anymore, but if anyone wants to take a shot at making their own Great Spirit Robot MOC using current produced pieces, that would be my recommendation for the thing to submit.

Try contacting him (idk where he’s currently active, but it’s worth a shot if LEGO allows resubmissions!)

I used to be in contact with him on Discord, I will try writing to him there and see if he responds.

We’ll see if I can fit in my project schedule this year and if the part pallet has what I need. Last year, I didn’t have time to enter the Lego Ideas A Twist of Nostalgia! contest. My plan was, and still is to do, an Aqua Raiders build. It is my favorite System theme and I know exactly how I want to modernize it with a new parts but an old twist.
In the old online Flash Lego.com game Treasure Trench, if you allowed the bricks of defeated Aqua Raider creatures to collide with each other, they would combine into new monsters. So why not go a Ninjago Core/Evo route? Build it so limbs and body sections are sturdy but can come apart easy enough to swap and combine the various sea monsters. Perhaps include the same system for the human sub to reconfigure it into the different underwater vehicles.
BDP certainly allows for a lot more pieces than that contest, but I think I’ll still try to keep it on the smaller end. Affordability would be nice for any Aqua Raider fans are out there.

With the announcement of the latest CMF series, it’s come to my attention that LEGO including the Tahu minifig might count as having the IP be active, and as a result rendering all Bionicle applicants invalid.
Just something to be aware of when submitting BDP entries.

I mean, they do keep indroducing new Castle Minifigures in the CMFs all the time, yet Castle is not banned ar all from having entries submitted to the Designer program.

Castle figs don’t usually have Castle in their name. Bionicle Cosplayer includes the copyright in the minifig title. It’s like how the Ronin is clearly meant to be Lloyd from Ninjago, but because it doesn’t includes the words Lloyd or Ninjago, it isn’t legally considered a Ninjago product.
The cosplayer would be considered legally a Bionicle product because it has the name in the title.
