Hey, if you've got great ideas for what should be on Scratch Design Studio, I'm sure everybody would like to hear them! 

As for why the mini-figs were chosen, I don't really know.  Sometimes it's fun to see what you can do with a very restricted set of sprites.  Do you remember Orange square, Purple Circle (or something like that)?  You got just two sprites and had to try to make something interesting with them.  I saw some incredibly creative projects come out of that.  Maybe you just need to think outside the box....who says you have to use the mini-figs the way they were intended?  Maybe they would make good projectiles?

suggestions:
1 sprite 1 script
If you could control the world, what would it be like?

It seems a lot like product placement to me. Makes me think whether lego company is giving funding to the scratch team.

That would make sense. Although, I'd have thought that if it was so, this Design Studio would have begun late November/ early December, as early- to mid-December is one of the peak times that children's toys (such as Lego) are sold, due to the pre- Christmas "rush". Although, I suppose, the post-Christmas and New Year sales could create a gap in the market (as in ten-year old boys (who talk far more than they think and hoard little plastic people) with money given by doting grannies).
