At 250 pieces the set sits among the smaller BrickHeadz builds and skips minifigures entirely. Below you'll find the full parts list covering all 91 distinct parts and colours.

Description

Two builds in one box

Rather than one large model, this set gives you two separate BrickHeadz figures: the adult cat and a smaller kitten standing beside her. Both share the series' trademark look, a square head, short limbs and a nameplate stand, so the build feels consistent even though it's really two mini projects. Splitting 250 pieces across two figures keeps each build quick, which suits a short building session rather than a long weekend project. For anyone collecting BrickHeadz, getting a pair in a single box is good value and makes the shelf display more interesting than a lone figure would.

A grey palette with a turquoise accent

Colour-wise the set leans on dark bluish grey and light bluish grey for the fur, with black picking out the eyes, nose and outlines. A splash of dark turquoise breaks up that muted palette, most likely used for the eyes, adding a bit of character to an otherwise realistic grey cat. Across the model, 91 unique parts are used, a reasonable count for a set this size and enough to shape believable fur texture and facial detail. The full parts list with every colour is further down this page, handy if you're missing a piece or repurposing parts for your own build.

Who this set suits

With no minifigures and a modest 250-piece count, this is a display piece rather than a play set, at home on a desk or bookshelf next to other BrickHeadz. It works well for children who enjoy building animals and equally for adults who like short, satisfying builds after work. Because each figure is completed on its own, the set naturally breaks into two short sessions rather than one long one. Cat lovers and BrickHeadz collectors in particular will appreciate a straightforward, quick-to-finish model without any complicated mechanisms.

Reusing the parts elsewhere

Because BrickHeadz sets share a consistent building system, many of the 91 parts used here work just as well in your own creations away from the instructions, whether that's a different animal face or extra detailing on a stand. The basic shapes for the head and body turn up in similar form across many other BrickHeadz sets, so building several of them over time builds up a small stock of interchangeable pieces. Every part on this page can be looked up by colour and quantity, which is useful if a piece goes missing or you're hunting for a specific shape.
