That's awesome work to the three who made those micros!

I think it's more than 3... each set seems to be an agglomeration of several of
teh winning entries, for example one set has both the monorail city slice AND
the Statue of Liberty model... I think that's pretty cool!

Indeed! Congrats to all the winners! If you look closely, all the winners and
the name of their entries are identified in orange titles on the boxes near
their model. I hope that is also done on the final sets, but I would prefer
their real name be included instead of their lego.com alias, assuming they've
given permission.

In my freelance period for LEGO I was able to see the winning models and the
preliminary packagings.
Of what I've seen the real names will also be included on the packaging, but on
the backside. In the contract that all participants have signed it says that
LEGO has permission to use their names.

Yup! As pointed out on LEGOFan, the sets form a size progression so there can be
different price points, the third one is the biggest.

I agree. I would rather see names. Perhaps LEGO was thinking some were underage
and wanted to keep them anonymous, but why not ask the parents for permission,
or give first names if not? Handles are just not as spiffy.
