Description

A box with no fixed model

The Universal Building Set stands for boxes in which no single model takes centre stage and free building matters most. The Super Set is the large version of that idea: 615 pieces that can be snapped together into houses, vehicles or entirely original constructions. It came out in 1969. For today's builders it is interesting because it shows how a box without figures or special parts can still offer a great many possibilities.

615 pieces, 46 types

The pieces are spread across 46 different part types, a good mix of basic bricks, plates and accessories. With that variety many different building ideas can be realised without constantly hunting for a missing element. Minifigures are not included. If you buy the box second-hand, you can use the parts list to check whether types and quantities add up, and then replace any missing elements in a targeted way.

Red, white, black and blue

Four colours define the look: red and white for the large surfaces, black for contrast and wheels, and blue as an additional strong colour. This classic selection combines easily and produces a coherent overall picture even in very different models. Playing with the colours is part of the appeal, since anyone building from their own ideas decides which colour the roof gets and which the walls, and can change it in a minute. Nothing is fixed, and that freedom is exactly what the box is about.

Using it as a stock of parts

A box like this is especially valuable as a source of parts. The list on this page shows every type with its quantity so that you can judge what the material will stretch to. With “What can I build?” you can see which models your bricks allow when you add the Super Set to your collection. That turns a classic from 1969 into a practical addition for any collection that needs basic bricks in larger numbers.
