Build it your way

Grab instructions, gather your bricks, and bring your creation to life—your bricks, your pace, your adventure.

The wait is over! Bricker Builds is now offering Instructions Only for our entire active catalog—plus your favorites of our retired designs and even a NEW Rhodey Life-Sized Helmet! Whether you want to build with bricks from your own collection, source parts over time, or simply enjoy the challenge of piecing together something amazing, this new option opens up endless possibilities.

Why offer instructions only?

International Accessibility

International fans (outside North America) can now avoid customs fees and expensive shipping. Source your bricks from locations close to home.

Never Say Goodbye

Our evolving catalog sometimes requires that we retire a design we love, but with Instructions Only, they can live on forever!

Build Beyond the Instructions

Our instructions don’t just guide your hands—they spark your imagination. Just ask Jeddi Tso (@exoeditsstuff), who used techniques from Dave Holder's Hero Sword to design his own Fire Emblem blade—and later landed a job on our Design Team because of it!

Affordable Piece Sourcing

Have you ever noticed that sometimes we put two 2x2 bricks next to each other? When we finish a design, our team carefully curates the design's parts list, substituting parts for more cost-effective and available alternatives. While the markets and pieces available on Pick-a-Brick (LEGO® website) and BrickLink (bricklink.com) fluctuate, we try our best to make it as affordable as we can!
