Lego! Minifigures! I'm Andrew, I’m in the UK and I run Brick Orbit. We’re a business dedicated to becoming the best place to buy Lego minifigures online.

We probably always knew it would happen at some point, didn't we? I'm hoping for sets a little like the Lego Animal Crossing range (WITH POKEMON MINIFIGURES) plus some big 18+ statue sets. What are you hoping for?18 Mar 2025 14:41 +0000at://did:plc:7vgmos7krcilpmplhdm7y7uo/app.bsky.feed.post/3lknvnh6v722phttps://bsky.app/profile/brickorbit.com/post/3li5mx5xhmk2yIf you're celebrating, Happy Valentines Day! And if you're not, absolutely use it as an excuse to build some Lego! Either way, have a great day! #Lego #ValentinesDay14 Feb 2025 16:32 +0000at://did:plc:7vgmos7krcilpmplhdm7y7uo/app.bsky.feed.post/3li5mx5xhmk2yhttps://bsky.app/profile/brickorbit.com/post/3li4wrptjyc2uThis is such a great build, really looks fantastic. One of those creations where it almost feels like too much thought has gone into it. Just the fact the taxi matches Speed Champions alone is cool. But I really, reallyyyy do not want to think about how much it would cost if they made it! #Lego [contains quote post or other embedded content]14 Feb 2025 09:56 +0000at://did:plc:7vgmos7krcilpmplhdm7y7uo/app.bsky.feed.post/3li4wrptjyc2uhttps://bsky.app/profile/brickorbit.com/post/3lhlgqw3efc2xThis story is ridiculous, to save you reading it. For a start it’s from years ago, but it’s Lego using generic terminology that mechanics, electricians etc. all use related to identifying connectors as “male” and “female”. It’s nothing to do with Lego as a company, who are clearly not anti-LGBT.

It’s a good job you’re nailing the Lego content. The videos were well made from the start, but the last few months it’s obvious you’ve got more confident with it too.

I don’t think she’d complain much if I got her a Lego set for Valentines Day. And even with that in mind… …I still don’t think this is a great suggestion for a gift idea, Lego. #Lego #ValentinesDay06 Feb 2025 22:52 +0000at://did:plc:7vgmos7krcilpmplhdm7y7uo/app.bsky.feed.post/3lhk6gyrrcs2vhttps://bsky.app/profile/brickorbit.com/post/3lghxovnnzc2lTo all the people receiving red weather warnings and are most affected by #StormEowyn, you know how there are lots of Fridays where you want to have a lay-in and then stay in all day building Lego, but you have to go out? Today you can do that. Look after yourselves and stay safe!24 Jan 2025 08:21 +0000at://did:plc:7vgmos7krcilpmplhdm7y7uo/app.bsky.feed.post/3lghxovnnzc2lhttps://bsky.app/profile/brickorbit.com/post/3lgdkufm5y22oStar Wars: Outlaws Sabacc, but Lego. All aspects of that sentence are excellent so therefore it is excellent.

Maybe if you’re selling quite expensive stuff, don’t tip that on them? Fingers crossed they come clean and their smell can be removed!16 Jan 2025 15:58 +0000at://did:plc:7vgmos7krcilpmplhdm7y7uo/app.bsky.feed.post/3lfuni2zdgk2yhttps://bsky.app/profile/brickorbit.com/post/3lfsuxaf6wk2yThis lighting is top-tier.

It’s very on brand for the show that the image they’ve got has them surrounded by Duplo…But ignoring it to play noughts and crosses.

Anyone get any Lego? I bet one or two of you did. The Endurance has been discovered under my tree, which was lovely. And thanks all for being lovely on here!25 Dec 2024 22:35 +0000at://did:plc:7vgmos7krcilpmplhdm7y7uo/app.bsky.feed.post/3le5zgmin422dhttps://bsky.app/profile/brickorbit.com/post/3ldqx2dm3b22dMy recommendation if you run an e-commerce business that sells toys (and/or adult collectibles) is to not have flu for the last week before Christmas. I feel prettyyyy damn awful, but all orders made it out of the door on time and will hopefully arrive on time.

This is a #Lego / #AFOL #StarterPack with some recommended accounts to follow if you love building Lego sets!

Maybe a slightly niche collection for UK-folk I think, but I’m sure with both a toilet and a hospital bed implausibly rolling down a hill they’ll find an audience here in Last of The Summer Wine fans. #Lego #LegoCity04 Dec 2024 11:05 +0000at://did:plc:7vgmos7krcilpmplhdm7y7uo/app.bsky.feed.post/3lchz3hlx2s2ehttps://bsky.app/profile/brickorbit.com/post/3lcfput7um22fWill this #Lego Ideas #Taskmaster set reach 10,000? It better, and it’ll be a disgrace if not. Will it get made into a set? Almost certainly not, as was the case with the amazing Great British Bake Off set. It’s just *too* British. But watch the amazing video and live in hope, at least!
