It's ... smaller than I thought it would be. The LEGO Minecraft Micro World (fitting name!) will be shipping this summer. The 480-piece set is being sold exclusively through Jinx for $34.99, and they're already taking orders. Seems expensive, but I suppose LEGO isn't exactly known for being cheap.
I have to say, the mini Creeper is probably the best part of this. If you're looking for more to go on, check out Mojang's silly video skit.
Jordan Devore is Destructoid's PC gaming manager and founding ginger editor. He is said to be easy to love but difficult to know. When Samit inquired about his curious bio photo Jordan simply replied:
"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

...What can I say? I like Lego. I know these things.
Also, the set will be available in stores and on the LEGO online shop this summer, too.
By the time you do it will be too late. :S
Why exactly does everyone think this guy is some nerd legend, again? Making a sandbox lego game and monetizing it in real-world swag any way he can.. ok, capitalism works when customers are idiots, fair enough. But then he cries about how Zenimax fighting his effort to trademark the overly-generic word "scrolls" in every possible marketing context imaginable is somehow Zeni-Goliath stomping on his Mojang-David?
The scrolls thing is obnoxious enough, but making legos out of a video game ripping-off legos is just douchbaggery. And you idiots will throw your money at him for it, LAWLZ.
And the scrolls thing was Zenimax as much as it was Mojang, he wanted to make a game and "Scrolls" was a good descriptor of what the game was about, Zenimax got defensive of "Scrolls" as part of their "Elder Scrolls" trademark, rightfully so, and I'm pretty sure that Mojang is only trademarking scrolls in the Video Game context.
