Description

Building for your desk

This set is not a toy in the classic sense but an everyday object: it holds pencils and then sits on your desk. That is a nice idea, because what you build can actually be used afterwards. If you enjoy bricks and also like a tidy workspace, you get both here. At 157 pieces the build is over quickly, and the result looks good in an office or a child's bedroom.

Bright colours, few types

Red, yellow, green and white give a cheerful look. Behind it lies a very manageable stock of parts: the 157 pieces belong to only 20 different types. In other words, they are mostly basic bricks that appear in large numbers. That is ideal for beginners, since sorting takes hardly any time. For collectors the box is worth having as an inexpensive supply of simple bricks in strong colours for projects of their own.

A figure on guard

One minifigure is included and keeps watch over the pencils. It turns the holder into more than a pot and gives the model some character. If you like, you can later move the figure into other scenes and carry on using the holder without it. Whether it stays on the desk as a mascot or joins a game is up to you, and it changes nothing about the bricks in the box.

Counting parts and building on

In the parts list on this page you can see each of the 20 types with its colour and quantity. That helps when you need a replacement or want to plan the bricks for other ideas. With the “What can I build?” tool you can check which further models can be made from these parts and your own collection. The set dates from 2012, but its simple basic bricks fit any newer collection without trouble.
