Well, I would assume these (very good) animations are made with some
professional software. I think I have seen somewhere that LEGO uses
AutoCAD (among other things), and going from there to 3D animations is
not difficult, only expensive :-)
The most important thing is the brick data, and this will surely not
be released to the world at large - why make it easier for the
competition?
