Hot on the heels of the LEGO® Group/IKEA collaboration news from this morning, I have uncovered more BYGGLEK information. There seems to be a lot of interest in these products in the Canadian LEGO® community, so I did some digging and got additional information from IKEA Canada. I now have Canadian pricing information. Additionally, you can take a closer look at the IKEA exclusive LEGO® set.
The IKEA exclusive BYGGLEK LEGO® set is of particular interest to many collectors, I am sure. Judging from the image, the kit is akin to a Classic brick box. Additionally, the description lists “1 practical tool”, which appears to be a brick separator. The specific details for the set are:
- NAME: BYGGLEK
- SET #: 40357
- COST: $24.99 CAD
- BRICK COUNT: 200
- MINIFIGURES: 2
- RELEASE DATE: October 1, 2020
- COST-PER-BRICK: $0.12 (Good)
- BRICK-TO-FIG RATIO: 100:1 (Very Good)
As I mentioned in the earlier post, I was expecting something a little more along the lines of furniture in addition to the storage boxes. However, I like the look of these boxes on closer inspection of the images. Additionally, the set comes with an interesting color selection. Incidentally, the whole BYGGLEK collection sets you back $86 before taxes in Canada. All the same, I think I will be one of the early purchasers. How about you? Did getting more BYGGLEK news hype you up? Comment below or reach out on social media.
Until next time,
