779384 884 Piece Brick Set

I've been building up a Lego collection for my son and found this to be a pretty good purchase. The price per brick is decent, and the set I received had a pretty good distribution of bricks. The only negative was (in my opinion) more 1 x 2 blocks than necessary, and fewer 2 x 4 blocks than I would have liked.Here is the breakdown of my set:(By Brick)1 x 1 1281 x 2 2481 x 3 481 x 4 241 x 5 01 x 6 401 x 8 201 x 10 121 x 12 02 x 2 1362 x 3 802 x 4 402 x 6 162 x 8 82 x 2 (flat) 122 x 3 (flat) 122 x 4 (flat) 121 x 2 (slanted, roof) 242 x 2 (slanted, roof) 24(By Color)White 158 18%Red 158 18%Yellow 158 18%Blue 158 18%Black 90 10%Green 90 10%Orange 24 3%Light Blue 24 3%Light Green 24 3%

Lego has been a trusted brand in our family for many years. As much as we love the themed sets that Lego provides, there is never enough blocks for "free building play" to go around. I set out on a mission to purchase basic bricks. At first, I tried that large online bidding site. I was disappointed that all the bricks had been sorted out and I was left with pounds of specialty pieces. I then went to my trusted Amazon and found this Lego Education set, which has been discontinued. As soon as I saw that fantastic price of $43, I purchased two sets! I was iffy when I read the reviews, but I can assure you, it comes with a nice variety and a good amount of bricks! Such a great gift for your builder! A nice supplement to your existing sets or use this as an introductory set. The bricks are the same size as the regular Legos. They are NOT Duplo size. They come with a nice variety of bricks. A great value at 4.8 cents per brick!

I wasn't sure about buying this set, because there's so little information about it. I finally decided that if I got it from Amazon, I could always return it if I hated it. I love this Lego set! When I was a kid, my parents bought me a blue bucket of Legos. There were two of the older square people, about 4 windows, and 2 doors. The rest was purely bricks.This Lego set reminds me of those Legos. There are no doors, and no windows or people. Just bricks. Bricks in all sizes, and many colors. The set comes divided into a few bags, and in a plain brown box with a label. There are plenty of bricks for building a house, or starting a town. There is no instruction sheet of any kind, just use your imagination of look online for ideas. This set was a great addition to the specialty sets that we have purchased. It expands building options, and gives you a great base of blocks for a collection.I would totally recommend this set for any parent looking to add a bunch of blocks to their kids collections. This is one of those hidden gems of Legos.

This set is a great addition. It seems that all the sets, whether they are a Basic set or a Creator model, will include a multitude of special bricks. My collection became a wide array of sloped, curved, smooth, round, walky talky, and other various greebles. What was missing is good ol' baseline construction bricks. This set includes a multitude of 2by and 1by bricks in assorted lengths suitable to build more basic structures.The colors are all the more standard fair without some of the more vibrant greens, blues, pinks and purples the Basic sets will include.

What can I say... it's a Lego set of random bricks. We all remember the countless hours we configured our own contraptions and now we can enjoy the next generation as they do the same.When it comes to toys I measure them not on how cool they are or how much they cost, instead I measure them on the amount of time that my kids are actively engaged in using the toy. Time is more valuable to me as I spend a large amount of my free time with my children and they actively engage me all the time. So when I can use a break from the active engagement of children (4 and 6 years old) I reach for the Lego's and walk away for a bit.I am giving this a four star rating for the lack of interesting pieces that could easily be thrown into the box. There could be more sets of wheels or spinning thingies that would activate a bit more creativity. Overall I'm glad that I purchased this set.

The assortment I received was not as described, nor was it what I expected. We love Legos. We've purchased many education sets in the past and been very pleased. The grouping of blocks in this item does not seem correct. While I have nearly 200 (of 884 total bricks) that are 1x2 bricks, I received only a handful of 2x4 and ten total 1x10 bricks in only four colors, etc. Some types have all the colors described but most are simple white, red, blue and yellow. Unfortunately, I'm very disappointed.

I only wish there were more 4x2 standard blocks. A lot of the pieces are very small. I bought this set, plus the wheels, roof pieces, and windows and doors. I feel like to be able to build anything substantial - like a house - we need more standard bricks.

Bought these for my grandsons. Have bought them small sets in the past, but they'd much rather play with our bins of Legos collected over the years by my own children. They love these. Having raised 7 children, I can usually look at a "toy" and tell if it will be played with for years or if it will be tossed aside when the new wears off; in general, I don't waste money on toys. Legos on the other hand are a great investment. Pricey but worth it (at least the basic ones are; I don't care for some of the newer sets.) The first thing my grandchildren ask for when they visit me is, "Can we play with the Legos?"

Genuine Products and as advertised.
