Our story

About takethebrick

takethebrick (TTB) is an independent online shop in Newbury, Berkshire, for genuine LEGO® minifigures and sets: new, pre-loved and hard to find.

We're collectors ourselves, so we know the feeling of hunting for the one figure that finishes a line-up. That's what the shop is built around.

What we sell

  • Minifigures from Star Wars™, Marvel, DC, Harry Potter™, Disney, The Lord of the Rings™, NINJAGO® and the Collectible Minifigures series.
  • Sets, sealed and pre-loved, including retired sets LEGO® no longer makes, BrickHeadz™, Ideas and Architecture.
  • Genuine LEGO only. We never sell compatible, copied or third-party bricks.

How we list every item

  • Catalogued by code. Every figure is listed with its official catalogue code, for example sw0614, the same codes BrickLink uses. You can match it to your want list exactly.
  • Honestly graded. Every item has one of four standard grades: New, Used - good, Used - worn or Used - part-built. See our condition guide for what each one means.
  • Cleaned and checked. Used pieces are cleaned and checked against their catalogue entry before they're listed. Anything specific, like a scuff, goes in the condition notes on the product page.
  • Mostly one-offs. Most figures are single items. When one sells, it's gone until we find another.
