Our Story

Engage your imagination, brick by brick.

Welcome to Bricker Builds! Our intuitive building sets will show you how to assemble pop culture characters, fantasy weapons, and more with LEGO® bricks. Want to become a brick building master? You've come to the right place.

Who are we?

We are a small team of designers and artists based primarily in Atlanta, Georgia. Our mission is to create memorable experiences with LEGO® brick sculptures for everyone. We are lifelong fans of The LEGO Group and pop culture, and we believe that only the best is good enough.

Although we are not affiliated with The LEGO Group, we seek to bring new and exciting value to this community!

How do we design our sculptures?

All of our massive sculptures are first modeled in a 3D program and converted into a detailed brick sculpture using our proprietary Bricker software.

From there, we utilize the diverse talents of our model design team to enhance the model with specialty pieces and advanced building techniques. Finally, our instruction design team designs an easy to follow, step-by-step guide showing you how to assemble the model.

Our process and the incredible team behind it allows us to create designs that are premium, affordable, and easy to assemble.

Meet the team!
