About Bulk Bricks
Raw material for your own ideas
Each pack in this theme focuses on one element, usually in a single colour. That makes them ideal for walls, floors, large mosaics or any build where you run out of one particular piece. Rather than a finished model with instructions, you get a supply of parts to use however you like.
What the packs contained
One hundred pieces was the typical quantity. Examples include 2 x 2 Black Bricks (3453-1), 2 x 2 Light Gray Bricks (3454-1), 2 x 2 White Bricks (3455-1), 2 x 2 Dark Green Bricks (3456-1) and 2 x 2 Red Bricks (3457-1). Plates came in the same way, for instance 2 x 4 Black Plates (3483-1) and 2 x 4 White Plates (3484-1). The largest pack is Bushes (10073-1) from 2003, with 130 pieces of foliage for landscaping. With 136 packs across seven years, the range covered a wide choice of shapes and colours. The set numbers run in tidy sequences, for example 3453-1 to 3457-1 for the 2 x 2 bricks, with a separate number for each colour. Despite the large number of packs, none of them goes beyond 130 pieces.
Making the most of spare parts
If you own a few of these packs, or simply a large pile of basic bricks, it is worth recording them in your collection. What can I build? on Bricoria compares your parts with every set in the catalogue, and common bricks like these often fill gaps in many models. The parts list on each pack page also shows the exact part and colour, which helps when you are sorting a mixed second-hand lot.
