There isn't any such elephant in the room.  Squad doesn't have to approve anything until the project reaches the supporter threshold, right now it's just an idea.  

Leaving aside the legal issues for a moment (er, sorta) - wouldn't it be better to get permission NOW instead of later?  Y'know, in case the answer is 'no'?  Might be kinda embarrassing if it turns out that Squad cannot agree to such a thing due to their 3D printed ships license or some such previous contract, or is simply unwilling etc.

If you know how, feel free to.  Even with the Kerbal X project, which got pretty popular, they have yet to provide a comment either way.  Squad was aware of the existence of that project, and I presume they're aware of this one already as well thanks to reddit/Twitter.  If they're unable to do it, hopefully they speak up at some point.

 I love the ideal of lego kerbal supporting this!

LEGO and Squad both have lawyers to deal with this sort of thing. It is best that they hammer out the details of any agreement *if* the project gets sufficient support *and* LEGO decide the project is commercially viable.

I will just leave my emotions and hope for such a thing contained.  Like this guy....

That makes sense. Also, could you show a picture of how the engines are made? I'd like to try making my own.

Sure thing!
