Welcome, new member!

Thank you for joining Brickset. You are now a valued member of a global community of over 350,000 LEGO fans.

This article explains what you can do as a member and how to get the best out of the site.

We'll show it to you for a few days: after that you'll find the information under the orange More... menu.

So, here's what you can now do here:

Enjoy the site ad-free

We need to show ads in order to fund the site, but we know they can be intrusive, so we don't show any to our loyal logged-in users.

However, we'd really appreciate it if you'd click on our affiliate links to Amazon, eBay, LEGO.com and elsewhere before you buy anything so that we can continue to maintain the database and publish engaging content.

Record your collection

Now you've logged in, you'll see checkboxes in the listings and on item detail pages to allow you to mark sets, minifigs and parts as owned or wanted. If you need more functionality, you can add more checkboxes or enable the Advanced Collection Manager.

Comment on our news articles and reviews

Join in the discussion on our news articles and reviews and become part of our lively community!

Customise the site

Click on your name at the top of the page to access your profile and customisation options, to change what's shown in the set listings, the colour of the page background, and so on.

Set your news preferences

If you don't want to see a particular type of article on the home page, you can hide them from the news category preferences page. Find out more in this tutorial.

Post your own text or video reviews

If you want to write your own reviews you'll find links on the set details pages to do so, and also, under the Videos tab on the set details page, you can add links to your reviews on YouTube.

Create advanced queries

We provide powerful search and filtering facilities but if they are not enough you can create your own queries, based on SQL.

Create BrickLists

BrickLists provide a way of creating arbritary lists of sets. This tutorial shows you how.

Access your stuff

All your reviews, queries, BrickLists and so on are accessible from the red My Menu, to which you add links to other pages of the site.

Apply for an API key

If you want to write a mobile app or use our data for any other purpose, you can do so via our API. Simply request a key, read the documentation, and get coding!
