Description

Open building in a case

The Freestyle line is about open-ended building rather than one main model. This case provides 698 pieces in 92 different types, a decent blend of basic bricks and more specialised elements. With that you can make a lot, from houses and vehicles to made-up creations. The case itself doubles as storage, which makes the set practical for a child's room or for taking along on trips and holidays.

A bright, simple palette

Blue, red, white and yellow set the colour scheme. These are the classic basics that go with almost any project and combine easily. If you like to work by colour, you have a short palette that is quick to sort. For specific ideas, such as a fire engine or a house with a red roof, the main colours can be used straight away without having to buy much extra to fill in the gaps.

Two figures for a crew

There are also 2 minifigures. That is not a big cast, but it is enough to crew a vehicle or move into a house. The figures turn a pile of bricks into a small scene where stories can unfold. If you need more people, you can add them from other sets later. For a look at how the figures and every other part are made up, have a look at the parts list further down the page, where each element is shown.

Reusing the parts

Since the set comes without a fixed plan, its parts are well suited to other projects. The “What can I build?” tool shows which further sets you could rebuild with the contents of the case plus the rest of your bricks. The page is useful for collectors as well, because it shows which parts are included and helps you judge whether a second-hand case might still be complete. That matters most for listings that describe the contents only vaguely.
