Buzz Lightyear
Set 40552 gives the Brickheadz treatment to Buzz Lightyear, the well-known Toy Story character. The model uses 114 pieces and, as with every Brickheadz set, skips minifigures entirely, since the character itself is built as a standalone, blocky collectible. The colours white, dark purple, light bluish grey and lime pick out the figure's distinctive space suit.

Description
One figure, no scene to build
Unlike a typical themed set, this one tells no story and comes with no environment, focusing entirely on a single character in the trademark Brickheadz style: a big square head, compact body and oversized eyes. At 114 pieces, the build stays modest and can be finished in a relatively short session, which is exactly why Brickheadz sets are a popular entry point or quick side project. The result is not a play figure to push around but a collectible piece, well suited to standing alongside other Brickheadz on a shelf.
54 different parts for the fine detail
Set against 114 pieces total, 54 distinct elements is a notably high share, a sign that details like the helmet, wings, suit markings and facial expression rely on a range of specialised shapes rather than simple repeated bricks. That keeps the build more varied than a pure repetition set and delivers a finished figure with clearly recognisable features. Working through the parts list on this page shows exactly which specialised pieces create details such as the visor effect or the wings.
White, purple and lime, straight from the film
The colour choice of white, dark purple, light bluish grey and lime matches the character's iconic space suit from the Toy Story films: white as the suit's base colour, purple for the helmet and accents, lime for the trademark stripes and detailing. This combination is instantly recognisable to collectors of the line and keeps the figure identifiable even from a distance. Anyone hunting for a specific shade for repairs or custom builds can use the full parts list on this page.
Aimed at collectors and casual builders alike
Brickheadz figures like this one are aimed chiefly at collectors of well-known film characters and anyone who enjoys a short, relaxed build without a big time commitment. With no minifigure included, the experience differs noticeably from themed sets built around vehicles or buildings. At 114 pieces and 54 distinct elements, there is enough substance for a satisfying result without eating up an entire afternoon. For anyone already collecting Brickheadz, Buzz Lightyear makes a fitting addition to a growing shelf display.
