LEGO® DUPLO® Extra Bricks (S)

Description

More of the same, on purpose

There is no figure and no vehicle here, just 52 pieces from the Duplo range. The idea is simple: it lets a collection grow without buying a full themed set. This page lists every part in the box, so you can see which shapes are included and whether they are exactly the ones your own collection is short of. For a pack like this, the parts list really is the product. The picture on the box matters far less than what is inside it, and here you can check that in detail.

Four shapes in four primary colours

Only four different parts are included, in red, blue, green and yellow. That is the classic Duplo palette, and it mixes happily with almost anything from the same era. Few part types mean many identical bricks, which suits walls, towers and patterned surfaces. It is less useful for details such as roofs, wheels or figures, which need specialised pieces that this pack does not contain. Those are best added from other Duplo sets, with these bricks serving as the bulk material.

Chunky bricks for small hands

Duplo bricks are larger than ordinary building bricks, designed with young children in mind. With 52 pieces you can put together a small house with a yard, a bridge or a bright wall. Younger builders tend to enjoy simple shapes because they are free to experiment without instructions. Adults can join in by sorting by colour, copying patterns or helping to stack, without it feeling like a lesson. A tower that topples over is often the best part of the game, because then the building simply starts again.

Making use of what you own

Because the pack consists of standard parts, it slots into older Duplo collections without fuss. Whether you find it second-hand is down to luck. If you already own it, the “What can I build?” tool on this page shows which models can be made from the parts in your collection, including any other sets you have. That turns a small refill pack into more than a pile of loose bricks. It gains a place in the overall picture of your parts and can be compared with everything else you own.
