A Brick Up from Lego?

As a lifelong Lego fan, who has been counting down the days until I finally have the space to build a fully miniaturised metropolis. Recently however, I found myself stumble onto a different brand that offered high-quality builds of classic retro electronics.

I found these sets to be more of a challenge with far less hand holding over their Lego counterparts. They include steps where pieces remain unconnected, often requiring you to double check you’re using the correct pieces. Yet in all likelihood, I am unable to follow the most basic instructions, so others may prove more successful.

I’ve genuinely enjoyed putting these builds together, with the classic box TV being my favourite so far which I have placed front and centre of my collection. Selling at an affordable prices they have left me eager to buy more, and with a new set of four releasing in February, I am excited to keep building.

The Zuru Max Retro Collection is perfect for those looking for small, high quality display pieces or a fun, quick, and challenging build.
