People

• LEGO designer
  • Jens Kronvold Frederiksen
  • Jan Ryaa
  • Sten Schmidt
  • Bjarne Tveskov

Companies

• Artworld UK
• Dorling Kindersley - figure out if this is gonna actually include info about DK or just be a list of Lego DK books
• Data Design Interactive - got up to Robocod before kinda fizzling out
• LEGO Futura
• LEGO Media International
• XYZ - as short as this is it's probably done unless anyone from Lego talks about it more

Misc Software stuff

• Alternate Installers - idk what MR was doing with this
• Unreleased LEGO software - need to find what other software there is; there's apparently a lot from the TT era but idk what's what - some early ones in particular like the James Bond and Tomb Raider ones seem more like propositions than actually cancelled games. Also recent articles about cancelled TT stuff post-Skywalker Saga name some disney-related game but aren't clear about if it's Lego or not.
• LEGO Print Creator - idk what else to add unless someone contacts someone from Lego Media or The Bending Spoon and they remember this somehow
• LEGO Racers (video game)
  • LEGO Racers (Game Boy Color video game)
  • Tracks
  • Racers

Misc Fiction

• United Galaxies - need to make this more article-like while deciding how to handle articles on fictional locations and... groups? political entities? whatever this thing is
