Description

A taste to try out

The Universal Building Set range was meant for anyone who wants to build without a fixed model. The trial size is its smallest offer: 26 pieces in ten different types, mainly red, white, blue and yellow. That is enough for simple things such as a little car, a small house or a figure made of bricks. No minifigures are included, and there is no fixed set of instructions.

For collectors and tinkerers

Today a set like this is mostly of interest to collectors, and to anyone who wants to hold a piece of the history of basic bricks. The colours blend easily with newer bricks from your tub. With so few pieces it is also easy to imagine as a small gift or a travel toy. Every piece is shown in the parts list on this page.
