Description

Open-ended building

This set is for people who would rather design something themselves than follow a manual. It belongs to the Freestyle theme and holds 230 pieces but no minifigures. You get a selection of bricks that can become houses, vehicles or entirely original ideas. Children who like to experiment have plenty of room with a pack like this, because there is no fixed result waiting and every idea counts as the right one. Building without a plan can also be fun with friends, since everyone can invent a part of their own.

Yellow, blue, red and white

The four main colours are the classic primaries of the system: yellow, blue, red and white. That makes the pack a nice example of everyday brick building as it has looked for decades. With only 34 different part types the range is modest, but there are several copies of each. That is useful, because you can build walls, towers and bridges without running out of matching bricks after a few steps.

Who it suits

Parents and grandparents often choose sets like this because they make easy gifts and require no previous knowledge. Collectors value it as a period piece, since the clear pack is a form of packaging rarely seen today. And if you want to extend an existing collection, it offers a solid base of standard bricks. It is less of a display model and much more a set for playing and experimenting on the living-room carpet.

Ideas for the pieces

The parts list on this page shows exactly which bricks are included. With “What can I build?” you can find out which models your own parts allow once you add the contents of this pack to your collection. That is especially handy if you own many loose bricks and want inspiration for what to build from them, without having to buy new sets. That way even old leftovers in the toy box get a purpose again, instead of sitting unused at the bottom of it.
