At Bricklink this currently costs you more then USD 20.00 plus shipping costs. We have compared several plate sizes: The cheapest way to get rid of it is to order 574 2 x 2 plates in black and to add 2x Plate, Modified 3 x 2 with Hole to your shopping cart to realize a suspension. To colour the background black and to be able to realize a suspension we need another layer of plates. So we put a 48 x 48 studded base plate in grey in the shopping cart, which currently costs $14.99. Because a background in light bluish grey would probably disturb the overall impression of the mosaics very much. Unfortunately this is not available in black, so we have to find a remedy here. If you want to do without the specially designed substructure made of LEGO Technic elements, you have to resort to the 48 x 48 studded base plate. This is because the production of the big plate is probably more expensive than the single parts we used for the mockup cost added up. A similar price (rather a bit more) can probably be expected for the new part. This costs USD 5.09 when ordering at Bricks & Pieces. So our picture and the calculation is only a rough orientation.Īnother orientation point could be the LEGO Technic Baseplate (Panel 11 x 19) from the Spike Prime Set. By the way: The plates in the finished LEGO sets are of course not put together from individual parts, but are manufactured as a whole by injection moulding. For every mosaic 9 of these plates are needed, which would cost about USD 54.00 – this is out of question. As a refference: The single parts to build one of these plates (in the cheapest colors) would cost more then USD 6,- at the LEGO Bricks & Pieces service. This part will probably be quite expensive to buy individually and also a self-construction is probably out of question due to the high costs. Thanks to the colleagues from New Elementary we know what the plate should look like from below and have recreated it for you (just roughly with individual parts) in Stud.io. In some press photos you can see this new element quite well.
It is a 16 x 16 studs wide Technic base plate, which has a height of 4 plates.
LEGO has produced a new element for the LEGO Art Mosaics. Let’s start with the (theoretical) procurement of the parts necessary for the mosaics. Of course, this quantity means that we cannot create variations of the pictures afterwards, which are only possible because of the hundreds of additional parts. Accordingly, we would need 2,304 pieces to cover this area completely. The base of the LEGO Art mosaics consists of 48 x 48 studs. So per set there are about 2800 (The Beatles) to 3300 (The Sith) 1 x 1 round tiles or plates included. Since we don’t have more detailed information, we estimate the frame to be about 100 bricks. In addition, there are 9x new Technic base plates (16 x 16 each), a new brick separator, a hanger and a frame built from LEGO. The biggest part of them are 1 x 1 round tiles or, in case of the Marvel and Star Wars sets, the 1 x 1 round tiles. The LEGO Art mosaic sets consist of 2,933 to 3,406 pieces. Conclusion: Is it possible to rebrick a LEGO Art set cheaply?.You can order the pieces you need on Pick-A-Brick (on the official LEGO® site) or Brick Link.The Brick Wall at the LEGO® store is a great way to find loose bricks! However, there are THOUSANDS of LEGO® elements, so even though the store may have a lot of bricks, it’s a small percentage of the bricks available.Watch garage sales and thrift stores too!.I’ve seen people selling gallon ziplock bags of random pieces! You can also buy used sets and take them apart to get an assortment of pieces. Watch FB buy/sell/trade groups for used bricks.These are great ways to stock up on loose bricks: However, they include so many colors, that you don’t get very many of any particular color.
They are an awesome way to get loose bricks for building creatively! I don’t like kids to get stuck just building their set and then leaving it up forever, but then again, you don’t want to take down your cool collectible sets! So I like to have a stash of random pieces for creative building in addition to the collectible sets, and the LEGO® classic sets are great for that. I am often asked what is the best way to accumulate a good collection of basic bricks, so here are my tips! I have mixed feelings about the LEGO® classic sets. They are useful to building so many things! All 10 of these Star Wars mosaic designs can be built on a 16 x 16 plate, but you can also use a larger baseplate.
