I decided to make a wheelchair out of the pieces I have and this is the result. The pack would include a minifigure in a wheelchair, a ramp, and a set of double doors that opened wide enough for the chair to pass through. If this were to become a set, I would donate all the proceeds to Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy.”
This guy is proposing that lego create an accessibility pack for mini figures. If enough people vote Lego will create this pack:
