Well, this is frustrating. Be sure to download all LEGO files and re-upload them elsewhere if LEGO continues to take down designs.
Remember – the interlocking block design is not trademarked, so the design can be uploaded, or even sold, without LEGO having any legal authority. The figurine designs should be considered fan art – but regardless – this is a terrible business decision by LEGO.
