LEGO Ideas Holiday Village w/Train (Working) Removed from Third 2022 Review Stage

In an interesting turn of events, the Holiday Village w/Train (Working) project by United Bricks of America has been removed from LEGO Ideas. The project has been completely deleted off the site with no explanation. Also the United Bricks of America profile has also seem to been removed as well. This could be on the user end or on LEGO’s end if there was some sort of violation. I’m sure there will be some sort of update when LEGO does their recap when the Third 2022 Review Stage ends.
