Possibly.
But what about the LEGO Star Wars Constraction sets that are out now. This was also a LEGO Cuusoo (Ideas) project back in May 2012.
Check here. It was a brilliant project and people loved it. LEGO killed the project immediately after it reached the first stage milestone due to so-called grey area of licensing of action figures since they are like action figures.
Quote:
Unfortunately due to our license, the LEGO Group is unable to produce Star Wars action figures, so we will not consider this project further. We're sorry to be the bearers of this disappointing news.

But last month they released the same idea as their own. There's no way it took three years to develop them.
This whole LEGO Ideas concept is just a way for LEGO to get free research and development. Every now and then, they let a small licensed set slip through.
Here's another project that got killed. They will make it eventually cause they know the fans want it.
