Company is gone
From a non-affiliated standpoint, is WeBrick the best alternative to Lego bricks, in terms of price, selection, and more?
Finally a good sponsor
I think that Lego can justify the premium price due to the effort in designing the builds and various licensing fees. But if you're building a retired set, where Lego won't get any of the resale money, it makes sense to use 3rd party bricks.
Agreed!!
No. Fake Lego is stolen IP, never ever promote stolen goods
As someone who has just recently got into LEGO and wants some of the older unaffordable sets, this vid was invaluable. Thank you 🙏! Subscribed!
I'm glad that you are helping us average people build alternative sets that are more reasonably priced than the Lego extortionists. A lot of us can't afford sets that are over a hundred dollars much less two hundred dollars. Keep up the good work.
Thanks so much for this kind comment. Glad you liked it!
Hopefully Lego will realize that alternatives are becoming a bigger threat and price their sets more competitively
I don't know. The cost of this webrick set was roughly comparable to the cost of the set when it came out BUT without the mini-figs, printed pieces, initial promotional costs (box art, ads, etc) and design costs for creating the build. So it seems like lego might be competitive already given all the hidden costs. But if you just want bricks and free lego instructions, then webrick is great.
@@legion2590 Some other rep brands sell these and other sets cheaper than original retail, even after the post pandemic rise in price.
@@veryyes1919 but Legos that way cause it rep If you have to choose between paying 10% more o feel most will choose Lego.... Maybe exception of mocs and retired
I’m not coming at this from a “purist” angle, and I’m not even an aficionado by any means, but I think it’s important folks are aware that a huge contributor to the cost of Lego brand sets has to do with paying Lego employees-including the amazing engineers and designers that spend months creating these builds before they’re ever even brought to market or make a profit.
Yes, Lego has made their instructions and parts lists available online, so yes, you can def rip them and then source the bricks from somewhere else. But just know that you’re not contributing to the source that invested in all that time and talent to produce those designs-which are the best in the world for a reason.
I’m honestly not arguing either way, and I think it’s fine to source some bulk quantity pieces elsewhere if you’re building major MOCs and need to save some cash-I don’t think the number of folks doing this will make a huge dent in Lego’s sustainability. But it’s just a good awareness to keep in mind, and also can contribute to Lego prices going up. If everyone did this, it would only result in a race to the bottom where cheap is all that matters, and Lego couldn’t afford to pay for the talent that gets us these designs.
Lego isn’t price-gouging or trying to rip off their customers. Lego is the company that is investing in all the people and their talent and skill. And they pay a competitive living wage to all their employees. That investment in people increases the price per brick vs a knock-off company that only snags their final work, and then manufactures a knock-off end-product material to copy it. Nothing is contributed to paying for what it took to get there.
Just something good to be aware-the cost for Lego isn’t about the manufacturing costs alone, like it is for the copycats. But I appreciate this vid talking about the differences and similarities in the final end product. This is just something for people to keep in mind. Has nothing to do with being a purist or a brand fan; I only own a few Lego sets myself. But I do care about quality development and companies that pay their workers. And I think Lego build designs are incomparable and unmatched by any other, and I’m happy to pay for that.
@@RagenRibbonz But alternative brick brands also does this now but still 2x - 5x cheaper than what LEGO is priced.
“You wouldn’t pirate a Lego modular building.”
I love how candid you are about using alternative bricks. For so long it’s seemed like every lego fan/content creator has been so hush hush about even the possibility of going that route. I’ve been buying bootlego for years at this point and have yet to have any issues and it’s nice to see someone going out there publicly and validating that, yes, this is a thing, and yes, it’s cost effective. LEGO isn’t owed anything from us. If they want to make the prices too high, you’re allowed to take your business elsewhere.
'bootlego' .. what a simple yet brilliant find....
Same here. Why pay those crazy prices when you can get the same thing at a fraction of the cost. I have the Death Star and daily bugle. You couldn’t tell the difference.
@@scottishdude9682 cool, you inspired me to do a search for parts for such a project,
I think Lego purest look at non Lego parts as a waste of money because they may feel that if a set is made of fake Lego or non Lego parts then that set is not worth anything in a resellers eye.
@@iamfallin4ux3 Thats how I feel. Plus deep in my soul I just know I have a fake product and I don't like that feeling haha
Your my favorite Lego youtuber because you aren't a purist. I wish you could post more often. I watch your old videos all the time.
Wow, thanks! That is the utmost compliment. I am gonna do my best to be posting videos more frequently. I'll post again in a few days!
*You're.
Sry man Just Had to it. He is indeed a great TH-camr. Sry again lmao
@@Gurkenglas999 thats okay my grammars not the best.
@@Gurkenglas999 bro you don’t even have proper grammar how are you going to fix someone else.
I don't mind alt brands for lego, the only thing I kinda regret is that it will get mixed up more and more in people's collections, and when I buy a second hand collection for parts I would prefer to have 100% lego or 100% alternative and not a mix. because not all copies are the same good quality as the Webricks seem to be
Thanks for teaching us ways to get lego for cheap in 2023 😮
Happy to help! Glad you liked it
Really thoughtful tips - and impressive production value as usual. Excited to try these out, we've always wished for a way to try retired builds without spending thousands of dollars. Thanks so much!
Thanks so much for the kind words!
Webrick is my go to for all my Moc builds now. I am totally impressed with there quality, color and the clutch of there Bricks. There website is simple to use and they have a ton of parts in colors that Lego does not offer. Also I can not say enough about there custom service being top notch. So far every order I have placed has been spot on also with accuracy of the parts count.
Hey!! Are there any good other options or is this one of the best websites?? Im interested in trying getting bricks from another website, however im not sure so i thought id ask!
@@bland.l I have tried a lot of other sites but Webrick by far has the best variet,, quality not to mention there customer service is great. They always seem to have a great stock of parts. Also there prices are about the best around.
Love your channel!! I’m a new lego fan, on a budget and i had no idea i could have every lego list on their website!! I’m so happy i’ve come by your channel. Also very glad you’re not against other brands. I’ve just completed a Nifeliz kit from amazon and i loved it !
Thank you! I'm glad that you liked it!
I just subscribed because of how much I loved this video! I’ve always wanted to go back and buy the modular buildings from my childhood that I missed out on but they were super expensive! Now I can buy them for reasonable prices!
Wish I could give you 100👍s. There is nothing wrong (in my personal view) of alternative brands. I build them all the time and honestly...no one notices the difference. Lego is getting crazy expensive, which is sad...but its forcing most of us to find other ways. Totally agree with omitting rare parts, and stickers/prints can always be custom made. Lego should be for everyone but sadly it's becoming more just for the rich. I think a healthy mix of both is just as good. Fantastic video!!!
Thank you so much for the kind words! LEGO is a tough hobby to get into because you realize how expensive it truly is. I just want people to be able to build for cheap! Lol
I've been building lego as an adult since the first modulars came out. But these days I've watched the prices just go crazy. Makes me sad its becoming out of reach for many at a time when we need hobbies. I love the collection I have but, like you, I am not ashamed to add in unique alt brands. I think lego as a brand is missing a lot of opportunities. Used to be a purist but life changes ,and income decline opened up my eyes to alts. I think its great if people can afford all real lego but they have to realise not everyone can. Alt brands give every socio-economic group the chance to enjoy the hobby. It's all about creativity. I hope you video goes far and wide to help people.
@@mishti06 100% agreed. I really appreciate your egalitarian attitude (one that I share). Like you say, Lego, or at least the hobby of building such sets with toy bricks, should be something that can be enjoyed by as many socioeconomic groups as possible.
So glad I stumbled across this video. I have bought a lot of bulk to use for ball contraptions or finishing my son’s sets that he left when he moved out. If I plan to sell something, I would use 100% lego but for ball contraptions I could use anything! I have pulled out a lot of mega block and other brands in the past due color or plastic issues but sounds like this is a perfect replacement! Great video!
This is FREAKING COOL!! The simple tip to go from rebrickable to webrick totally made my day! Thanks so much :)
Watching your cat walking on the lego table made me smile, i've been kicking myself for not getting the bank before it retired. Maybe this way i could still build a bank in my city
Great work! I am a purist when it comes to Lego, but my method for "scratch building" sets is to take my inventory lists and go pick bricks out of the bulk at my local Bricks & Minifigs store. If I keep running into a rare part that is statistically not going to show up in the bulk pile I order off of Bricklink.
As someone who is just now getting into Lego and wanting to build a city of my own this is awesome!
im not even a lego builder myself i just love lego content and i think you might be one of the best addition to the community. beside your tipps your videos are on a very high quality level visual and audio wise. keep up the good work!
Wow, thanks! I really appreciate that. Thanks for the comment!
Just getting into Lego at age 39 and my word - the tools available for building any set on the cheap, EASILY is insane - thanks for educating me !!
Dude, I owe you a big thanks! I had no idea this was a thing. Great way to finally build old sets.
Glad you liked it! Thank you for watching!
What a great video. I wasn't aware of we brick but see you learn something new every day. Thank you for your posting. So many possibilities now. Will definitely continue to watch your posts. Have a great day.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks very much
After this video I used webrick to purchase the parts I needed to build the Central Perk and Seinfeld Sitcomplex rebrickable model. I substituted the out-of-stock pieces with other fitting pieces, but some sort of error happened and they didn’t ship them to me. It’s all good though, after I contacted them about it they shipped me the rest of the pieces.
I’ll definitely buy from them again, having all the pieces shipped from one place feels so much better than buying from 15 separate bricklink sellers, and you save so much money on shipping alone. This video has really opened a brand new world of Lego building for me
That is amazing! Thank you for sharing. I'm gonna be able to order more pieces from them soon, you're right, the single source is so much easier.
Thank you for telling me about this! i think im gonna try it out, this is awesome!
Bro about to hit 10K!!! Awesome job on your content growth; been here from the start!!
Thanks NB! This is great to know!
Built the cafe corner without spending one cent. It's all made with simple bricks. Had everything in my collection and what I didn't have the correct colour I just swapped and it still looked amazing.
I have some plans to create my own mocs or modify existing versions, so glad to learn about webrick. Will be looking to them for parts.
Big thanks to your video I just saved tons on a lego set I really wanted to buy but was really pricy bc they dont produce them anymore. Your video was really helpful and easy to follow 😊
Glad you liked it! Thank you for the comment!
1:20 what the umbreon doin
i love how your cat just runs around the city its like Godzilla but in lego.
Thanks for this video. Been wanting to build the brick bank for some time. Will definitely try this method!
Good luck and have fun! Glad that you liked it!!
Great Video. I was searching for cheap and good quality alternatives for my Mocs. Thank you...Subscribed
Thanks for the sub! Glad you liked it!!
I took your advice from this video and got mine for $110. Only had to buy a few parts and custom stained glass windows plus some of the printed paintings Also had fun sorting thought my own collection for brink bank, had about %65 of my mine.
Rest of the pieces I bought from Webrick.
Great video I recently sourced out parts for both the brickbank and detectives office since I had about 80 percent of the Lego parts for both I chose to get the rest in Lego from bricklink. But I might try some of the older modulars from we brick in the future. Thanks
Thank you. As someone who is in college and doesn’t have much disposable income. Love your emphasis on affordability
Thanks for this video. I don't know this vetnder, but I'm looking forward to giving them a shot. I think you have expanded my LEGO world 🎉
You won’t believe how much this helped me! THANK YOU
Glad it helped! Thanks for the comment!
Big fan of the channel. Always happy to see other Chief's Kingdom fans online. Thanks for the tips. I will be going straight to Webrick.
Back to back!!
Thank you so much for the webrick alternative
You made me do it. I checked out and old MOC build the wanted to get about 10 years ago, but the $80+ price tag was to much for me to justify it. Checked it out today on Webrick and got it for $16 (missing 3 printed parts that are hidden anyways in the cockpit).. Plus used the $5 off for a sign up coupon which covers the shipping cost. So $17 in total.
Ugh... 3 weeks later, I get an email saying their logistics provider lost my order. Not a good first start for me......
Great video! Helps a newbie who dosent have money to buy all old sets 😊
I love this idea, and I’m definitely gonna use it this summer when I want some new sets; I had a play around with the websites and the palace cinema came out to be half the price if not less than what eBay was selling for! But then I also did it with the boutique hotel and some were cheaper and some were only slightly more expensive, yet again, they would all be second hand ones and this way would be brand new ones, and I guess the palace cinema is a much older set and therefore more expensive and has a higher want, interesting to see how the prices vary!
It's curious to me that Lego never offered the service to order out of production sets as a complete partlist. Yes you can painstakingly go through pick-a-brick and select all the pieces, but it seems like a missed opportunity that they are losing out to third parties on.
They have thought of that. That's why they own bricklink 😅
There are 3,800 unique lego bricks. The factory couldn't realistically print all unique pieces from every retired set they've put out in the past 70+ years. The fact is that once lego retires a set, those unique prints just skyrocket because lego has no reason to continue to print the pieces. Lego is releasing 150+ new sets, just in January 2024. Lego didn't get where it is today by continuing to make wooden toys. They are constantly evolving & innovating.
@@Miduuza They could still add a "add this set" to pick-a-brick and then show which pieces are missing. Majority of the bricks on a retired set you can find on pick-a-brick after all and most of the time you can find alternatives for the missing pieces.
@@Splatoon4Life416 TIL
Extremely valuable video, thanks so much Michael
Thank you for the comment Joe!
DUDE!!!! I'm making some mocs and I had to abandon part of the build because the parts that I wanted average $8 apiece due to appearing only in 1 set ever, on webrick they are $0.07 apiece!!!! I'm going to order some to check the quality, the part is dark red 1x2 plate with 2 fingers on end (it's a hinge piece). I need about 20 of them and there are zero vendors that have that many.
This is a total game changer for me. So hyped!!!!
That's a great point! Even if you are a lego purist, WeBrick can be a great supplement for those expensive and rare pieces. The $9 key piece I mentioned in the video was only a few cents on WeBrick.
Great video! Thanks for sharing!
@2:45 I swear to god the second I saw this shot I said to myself 'This isn't original LEGO'. You can see it, especially with the ingot pieces - they don't look as 'crisp' as original LEGOs do.
That said, I can't convince myself to use other brands (not even in places where you don't see the bricks, like in a foundation). That might be dumb costwise, but a part of me thinks that it's just not the same *shrug*. Like an original painting and a print of it.
Great video. I don’t think I could do without the printed windows though sadly… they’re so pretty, still definitely worth considering
I discovered Webrick about a year ago and the savings is amazing. The pieces are good quality and color match. Thanks for the video.
Glad you like them! It's nice to be able to get a lot of parts affordably.
4:48 POV: The WeBrick issued camera man holding the script has a gun pointed at you. /j
😆😆 No gun required, I just love saving money!
@@NewBrickerton Don't we all!
Webrick could be costly to buy as there is practically no resale value. Also I hope you could have included the shipping cost and provided a total cost which should be bringing this closer to $200. Now, I am not 100% loyal to Lego, but I better spend $400 and have an opportunity to resale with more money in future than spending $200 with no ROI. Kindly let me know you pov on this if possible.
Thanks man that’s great info.
You’re video production is superb! I’m subscribed. I’m about to binge all your content.
Awesome! Thank you! I appreciate the kind words
5 videos in so far 🔥
Just found your channel. Love this video. Subscribed!
Great insight to the alternative sources, looking forward to seeing the rest of the beach
Thank you!!
Just subbed. I’ve been wanting to get the bank for a while and considered alt bricks. I’m gonna try this. Thanks!
Thank you! Let me know if it works out!!
Awesome video, love your content! 👍
Thanks so much! I appreciate that!!
Amazing video, as usual!!!!
Thank you so much George!!
This was so helpful!❤
Thank you so much! Glad you liked it
I am so lucky that I bought the Brick Bank when it was new (along with other now-retired modulars like the Grand Emporium, Downtown Diner and Detective's Office)
great advice, thanks man!
Happy to help! Thanks for the comment.
Thank you for this
Very interesting video and I appreciate the alternative point of view about using non Lego products as it’s different from the majority of the Lego community. While I have not ventured outside the official Lego brand products, I don’t begrudge anyone who does, as there is a place for everyone to enjoy it how they see fit. In some ways I admire people bold enough to be open minded and trying something different. I would be curious how the webrick version you built would compare to sourcing Lego brick on a site like bricklink while omitting the same expensive pieces.
That's a good question! I will have to give that a shot. Thank you for the comment Jason!
I quite agree with using 3rd party replacements for lego on the interior of the build, but on the exterior, I prefer using actual lego even if it does cost me more, and for printed parts, I like to print those out and glue them. I'm going to try WeBricks out, hope it works out well for the Daily Bugle I'm trying to buy for cheaper than the $350 it is currently.
That's a great strategy. For my MILS plates I will sometimes use 3rd party bricks on the inside but use real LEGO for the exterior too. LEGO pieces do look a bit better, but city building requires so many parts!
This is the channel ive been looking for. Thank you.
P.s. brickerton looks awesome
Thanks so much!! Welcome to the channel!
New sub and amazing video especially for someone like myself slowly putting the pieces together to make a city over time, ty! I've actually been making most of my mils plates from bricklink and other things & never even know about being able to upload a parts list!!! The time I could have saved & will save in the future, thanks!

Thanks for the sub and the comment! I'm glad to know that other people like webrick too!!
@@NewBrickerton At first I actually didn't realize it was its own brand! Until I inspected all the LEGO sets I bought in comparison, but yea I'm cool with using em now! But its funny how I found em first before anything just because of the fact I was trying to save every little bit, then stumbled upon it!
Super helpful 🎉
Outstanding video!! Excellent part out tips! Love the Brick Bank and so glad this isn’t one of the modulars I need to part out!! 😂
Thank you so much, glad you liked it!
Lol same
Great video! New to the channel and enjoyed this one so much I became a subscriber! I especially love some of the production value, and the music choice and editing at 11:59 reminded me of the intro to House of Cards! Great work. PS what is that great track?
i brought my modular bank from aliexpress for £80 ish. i also replace some parts with new colour. eg sand green winow with dark green etc with stained glass :) that way its like lego but my own style. still much cheaper than lego stamped brick. in the end of day its just bricks.
My buddy has found a bunch of the modulars on AliExpress. That's an even more affordable way to do it, I'm going to try one of those next.
@@NewBrickerton also i have 4 x window from ground floor, i don't using it as i am replacing it. you can have it.
And at the end of the day these won't fly at an official Lego convention. No, thanks.
@@LordDavid04 I'm sure that no one who is using off-brand parts would take them to a LEGO convention 😁 It's just for fun if you want the same buildings for less money!
@@MrSamperkins No way? That's a very generous offer. If you're serious, would love to talk to you in private haha feel free to send me a message on my email/Instagram/Twitter.
How do you find out what pieces are missing from your webrick order. Whenever I download the xml file bricklink claims to not have most of my pieces that are missing from the webrick order. Can I go on without some of those pieces?
If a set I want is still in production, I’ll buy from LEGO. If it’s disco’d and still available at a reasonable price, I’ll Bricklink it as a set.
I bought the first 4-5 modulars while they were new…then slept few a couple I really want (Bank and Diner). I’m going to check out the difference between part sourcing off of Bricklink and WE Brick. We’ll see where it goes!
I think buying alternative basic Lego pieces is great and personally I would still get the special pieces, I believe they are what make the set stand out than other sets, but I will definitely use webrick for the basic/unprinted parts
14:04 cool stand
8:59
I understand what you mean about the Lego faces.
But for me, I loved playing with Legos as a kid, so I guess I started to love the figures.
Even if they did look a bit weird.
It was mostly a joke, they are simple but definitely classic!! :)
Aliexpress: hey only 80 dollars 😊
love clips like this.
Thank you! Glad you liked it!
Im going to use this strategy to build the cafe corner and the green grocer
I have a webrick sample coming soon can't wait to try it
I hope you enjoy it!
SPECTACULAR job‼️
Thank you!!
I am now subscribed to your channel because of this video, thank you. Does webrick ship to Australia?
I have ordered 3 or 4 sets of bricks from WeBricks. Color can be VERY inconsistent. I ordered a bunch of trans (dark) blue tiles, and they were all over the map in color--with 3 different shades of blue which went from slightly darker than Lego brand trans blue to slightly lighter than Lego brand trans dark blue. Ended up ordering replacement bricks from Lego. Similarly, my whites ranged from Lego white to slightly yellowed white to slightly tan white. It looked really obvious on my ski slope. Other than these two colors, everything else was just fine. Brick tolerances were not as good as Lego, so some bricks -- like the shorter axles were too long and interfered with the motion of some models. The solution was to trim the axles until they fit and did not bind. Not an ideal solution. Some other parts didn't lock together as well as Lego bricks do. So, overall, I save money by buying from WeBricks, but I always end up having to order some replacement bricks from Lego or Bricklink.
I tried this and it totally works! I got cafe corner for just over 100 dollars
I think it's totally fine to use these bricks as an alternative. As long as you're not flipping sets & trying to pass them off as authentic, or replacing parts in authentic sets with bootleg bricks. It would be incredibly upsetting if i were to find even one bootleg piece in a retired set I purchased used.
Totally. It's for personal use only. Don't try to fool others or pass them off as LEGO to make a quick buck, not cool.
Thanks for the video. I was wearing that sales chiefs shirt you had on haha. Go chiefs!
Just subbed! As a videographer, your shots, lighting and edit are on point. Is video your main profession? I see a c-stand so I’m assuming so. Great work!!
Thank you!! Yes, i currently work at a nonprofit so I'm not doing video 100% full time but it's what I'm most interested in. Appreciate the sub!!
@@NewBrickerton oh that’s awesome! I’m looking forward to catching up on all of your videos on this channel.
Interesting video. Good idea
Thank you!
Dude how do you not have a million followers? Bravo
Aliexpress 40 bucks with coupon and free shipping! Did mention with mini figs..
I have a mix of both Lego brand bricks, and various others, I can definitely tell the difference in quality between certain brands, and of course Lego itself. I honestly didn't mind getting complete sets that were 'stolen' from Lego, because the thing is, if the set is no longer available, I can't buy it from Lego anyway. They are not gonna make money off me either way.
I also did a large moc creation in my city, and I bought those parts out of China as well, if I had bought those from Lego, it would have been 4x the cost. I like Lego, but I also like a ton of other stuff, so I have to choose where to buy it from.
Amazing video !
You are so kind! Thank you!
@@NewBrickerton You're so great 🤘
Thank you I might try this to start my first Lego city and have a bank
Awesome! Do it! Let me know how it goes
Super awesome that I found this out… I’m one of those who’ve been craving the OG modulars, but I’m never able to get them. I will DEFINITELY check this out! Thanks a lot!
Great video, the brickbank looks awesome. what do you use to edit your videos? Your very good with your video production
Thank you so much Jace! I've been learning to make videos for awhile before I got into Lego so it helps. I use Premiere Pro from Adobe Creative Cloud to edit. I wouldn't really recommend it for everyone, as it is subscription model and quite expensive. Davinci Resolve is a powerful but free editing software.
Great video, I just recently started discovering all the great (cheap) tools available for building legos, including ones made freely available by Lego. Seems they get a bad wrap for price gouging or what not.
LEGO is the best, but they are overpriced for that reason. I like to help people find what else is out there because it's such an expensive hobby anyway. Thanks for the comment!
def gonna have to check out that site for BNSF & Santa Fe pieces
Wow enjoyed the info. I just built the brick bank but with all parts ordered from brick link. I didn't tally it up but was cheaper than buying the set but so much more expensive than WeBrick. I opted out for the windows also as $46 in Australia a piece. Does WeBrick ship overseas?
I really like the fact you are building on a budget. I can't justify the cost of a lot of lego and only have limited space to build as my wife has banished my Lego to the shed in the garden.
It's an expensive hobby already so I like to save money however I can! Sorry to hear about your banishment!
