One of my current hobbies is Lego. I grew up playing with it, back then it would be boxes of mixed lego pieces and you use your own imagination. Nowadays you get branded sets with thousands of pieces costing hundreds of pounds. It is all a bit much!
Then one day I was scrolling through Instagram and saw an advert for Brick Borrow. A Lego borrowing company. The idea being that you select your set, you build it, play with it, take it apart and send it back. Perfect for people like me who, a) don’t have room for all the Lego and b) don’t want to fork out hundreds of pounds on sets.
On Brick Borrow you have three different tiers to subscribe to. £10pm gets you a random set every time. £15pm means you get to choose your set each time, and £25pm means you get to choose two sets each time. You must send your set back, and have it checked over before you can borrow a new set, but you can borrow as many as you possibly can in a month.
Ive started since December and have borrowed the following:
- Lego Star Wars Executive Destroyer
- Lego Icons Vespa
- Lego Harry Potter Petronas
- Lego Marvel Infinity Gauntlet
- Lego Creators 3-1 Dragon
- Lego Technic Jeep Wrangler
- Lego Wicked Glinda’s Dormitory (currently on the way)
If I were to buy them all separately it would of cost me £450’s, but through Brick Borrow paying a monthly subscription (with an additional £50 voucher, meaning 3.5 free months) I have paid a total of £80’s. Absolute bargain, meaning I have paid around 20% of the RRP of the Lego sets by doing it through this subscription. Check out the images down below of some of the builds to date.
