Building Blocks & Sets

Building blocks and sets include micro brick scenes, motorised machine kits, robot sets, base plates and bulk bricks.

Display sets include a 868-piece pirate wharf, a 1,018-piece summer villa with figures, a Christmas cafe micro brick set and a cherry blossom tree. For motion, there are electric gear sets of 83 to 263 pieces and motorised machines with 396 or 548 pieces. Extras include LED light kits, 32 x 32 clear base plates and 1 x 1 round plates in bulk.

Check piece count and the age range. Bigger sets take hours and suit patient builders. Micro bricks make detailed models but are tiny, so keep them away from small children. Bulk plates and base plates help with your own designs. LED kits add light to a finished tree or scene.

Building Blocks & Sets questions

How do I pick a building set for a beginner?

Choose a set of a few hundred pieces with clear steps, such as the robot or machine sets. Very large micro brick sets suit experienced builders.

What is a base plate for?

A base plate gives a flat foundation to build on, so your scene stays together and can be moved. A clear 32 x 32 plate shows lights or details underneath.

Are these sets good for display?

Yes, many are made for shelves, such as the cherry blossom tree and the Christmas cafe. A light kit turns a finished model into a lit display for a bedroom or desk.
