Jeopardy! LEGO set?

Not yet (or necessarily ever).

LEGO has been doing this thing where regular people can submit idea for future LEGO sets. If it gains enough traction, they consider it, (maybe) approve it then sell it. I believe a Ghostbusters set and BttF Delorean came from this site.

I can't see this getting beyond the suggestion stage. (Although it is a "staff pick" and featured in the "slide header.")

That is cool. But how big a market could there be?

I know there was at least one guy who uploaded his LEGO game show episodes.

Even though the show has become more of a pop culture icon over the years, I'm afraid I can't see this having the same mass appeal of Ghostbusters and BTTF.

Pretty cool mock-up nonetheless...props for recreating an "old school" set. :-) Reminds me of when I'd use the Legos at the after-school program to build a few sets.

Someone made a Let's Make A Deal set. Pretty cool. The myriad of Lego people certainly lends itself well here.
Me: Of all of the game shows you've hosted besides Jeopardy!, like High Rollers or Classic Concentration, which is your favorite?
Alex Trebek: I'd have to say To Tell The Truth, because it was the first time in my career that I got to sit down while I was hosting.

Hold the phone...there's a Lego Abe Lincoln?

I was wondering exactly what you meant by that; but holy cow, you're right. They've arrived at the Marketplace of LEGOland already in costume.

(I wonder if minifigs would be less expensive than meeples.)

Set fails without Hot Dog Guy:



EDIT: No, I'm wrong, set succeeds; there are two in the back row. :)

See, I was thinking, without Doors 1, 2, and 3, it was just a bunch of Lego figures in bleachers.  But a cool effort nonetheless.

YMMV, but I'd rather have this shot than a shot of the doors that show no one.

No Shadoe Stevens? Blasphemer. ;)

Seriously, I like it.
