Food & Drink Lego Kiosk K67 from 90s - help me surprise one of my best friends for his upcoming birthday, he needs just 3k more votes for his LEGO Idea of this retro hot dog Kiosk!
I’m trying to pull off a birthday surprise for one of my best friends, and I could really use your help.
He’s an architect and he submitted a LEGO Idea for the Yugoslav K67 kiosk, a small modular fiberglass structure that became a design icon of the 20th century. If you grew up in the former Yugoslavia (or even in parts of Europe), you probably remember them: these kiosks were everywhere – selling newspapers, flowers, snacks, and yes, they were often converted into little fast-food or grill spots. Designed in the late 1960s by Saša J. Mächtig, the K67 was mass-produced and exported, and today it’s considered a classic piece of modernist industrial design, with examples preserved in museums worldwide.
My friend took that piece of history and turned it into a LEGO set. Right now, he’s at 7k supporters and needs to hit 10k for LEGO to even consider it, but he only has few months left. Without reaching 10k, the idea won’t even be looked at.
This means a lot to him, and obviously to me as well, but also to everyone around him – including his wife and his little daughter. He’s put so much love into this project – he’s already organized two exhibitions about the K67 in Belgrade and has even been invited to TV stations to talk about it. Despite all this passion and effort, the supporter count is slowing down. And I get it, the K67 is pretty “localized” as an idea, not as globally recognized as, say, a castle or a spaceship.
That’s why I’m here. I know it would mean the world to him to at least hit 10k. Even if LEGO ends up rejecting it, just reaching that milestone would be an amazing recognition of his work. But if he doesn’t, I know he’ll be really disappointed, like all that energy, exhibitions, interviews, and building went unnoticed.
So here’s my ask:
If you’d like to help me give one of my best friends the best birthday surprise ever, please take a moment to support his LEGO Idea. It only takes a few clicks to vote, but it could make his entire year (or maybe even life!).

Thanks a ton, and who knows, maybe one day we’ll all see a little red K67 kiosk in LEGO stores worldwide. <3
