LEGO® Landscape Supplement Kit

Description

An add-on pack for learning scenarios

Supplement kits are not individual models but extensions for existing educational sets. This pack belongs to the Serious Play sub-range, which is intended for workshops and teamwork in which people build models of ideas, problems or processes. The landscape kit supplies parts for showing surroundings. If you collect privately, it is an unusual find that shows how versatile bricks can be outside the playroom as well. For many builders, exactly that rarity is the appeal of collecting packs like this.

Black, light grey, red and white

The palette is sober: black and light grey form the base, with red and white as accents. It suits abstract representations where the point is a message rather than natural realism. Roads, buildings, obstacles or paths can be clearly distinguished this way. If you want more realistic landscapes, combine the kit with green and brown bricks from other sets, since those colours are largely missing here. For road models, floor plans and town layouts, however, the plain mix is perfectly adequate and even looks tidy.

32 types, 426 pieces

With 32 different part types among 426 pieces, the assortment is fairly easy to survey. You get several copies of the basic shapes plus a few special parts for structures and transitions. That makes a practical mix for surfaces, paths and simple constructions. The parts list further down shows which shapes they are and how many of each there are, in case you are looking for particular bricks for a project. Since much of the content is plain, missing elements can usually be replaced easily from other stock.

Putting it to good use

Since the kit has no minifigures and no fixed model, it is mainly building material. With the “What can I build?” tool you can see on this page which other sets could be realised from the parts if you own the kit. Combined with other stock, you can create landscapes, dioramas and layouts that go beyond the original educational use and enrich your private collection in a sensible way. The pack also works well as a reserve of material for rebuilds.
