We are A Brick Apart

I'm Dawn, an adult fan of Lego (AFOL), and I run A Brick Apart, your friendly online shop for collectible and retired Lego sets, minifigures, and parts. Whether you're a dedicated collector or just getting started, I'm here to help you find the perfect additions to your Lego world.

Established - 2001

My love for LEGO didn't start in a boardroom — it started on the living room floor, sorting through scattered bricks with my kids at my side. What began as afternoons spent hunting for that one missing piece to finish a spaceship or a castle slowly grew into something bigger. I watched my kids' eyes light up every time we tracked down a long-discontinued set or found a minifigure that had been missing for months. That feeling — the thrill of the search, the satisfaction of finally completing something beloved — never left me.

Since 2001, that same spirit has powered A Brick Apart. What started as a personal quest to find sets for my own kids has grown into a family-run business based in beautiful Bucks County, Pennsylvania.

The kids have grown, but the mission hasn't changed. We're not just selling LEGO sets— we're helping finish stories that started, much like ours did, with an unfinished set on the floor.

Our mission

At our AFOL owned business, we believe every LEGO® set tells a story, sparks imagination, and creates lasting memories. Our mission is to connect builders, collectors, and families with hard-to-find and retired LEGO sets. At A Brick Apart, we have a genuine passion for the hobby. We strive to provide exceptional and personalized service, fast order processing, and mint condition sets. We are committed to helping customers discover treasured classics, complete cherished collections, and inspire the next generation of builders—one brick at a time. Every order is handled with the same care and attention we would give to our own family, because we're not just selling LEGO sets—we're helping create moments that last a lifetime.

Your satisfication is our priority

We source only the highest quality sets. We inspect each set to make sure the original seals are in place. We take great pride in making sure you receive a LEGO® set that you are proud to own or gift.

Genuine LEGO® Sets

No need to worry that your set isn't 100% genuine. We only source sets domestically. All sets are inspected to make sure seals are intact.
