On Friday the 4th of October Vectis Auctions have a sale purely dedicated to Lego!

Lego is something that will have passed through the hands of the majority of people at some time in their lives, whether you’re an Emmet or a Wildstyle the sale will have something for you – if you don’t understand that reference then maybe this sale isn’t for you – but who knows, keep reading and find out!

For the budding Masterbuilders out there like my 8 year old son, there are boxes and boxes of loose Lego bricks, boards and spare parts to help you build any model your imagination will allow, for those who who prefer to have instructions to follow, such as myself, there are boxed sets where you can follow the instructions and create masterpieces, some sets are sealed, some are part built; and if you are somewhere in between then the sale also includes a large selection of instructions and leaflets, grab a “Lot” of mixed bricks and some instruction books and see where they can take you.

References are taken from the Lego movie – which also features in the sale!

Sealed sets include iconic models such as a WW1 Red Baron; Creator Modular sets which were designed for the older Lego builder and can be combined to create a ‘neighbourhood’. There’s the ever-popular Star Wars sets, plus Lord of The Rings, Pirates of the Caribbean and even Scooby Doo. There is a large selection of minifigures, in varying states, to populate your Lego ‘City’, and even storage solutions should you wish to keep the bricks tidy (unlike my son!)

This sale is “Awesome” for any Lego fan.
