Brick Loot Subscription Box Review – September 2015
Brick Loot is a box from a new but growing trend of LEGO subscription services! My kids are HUGE LEGO fanatics, so I was really interested in trying this out with them!
Brick Loot kindly sent us this box for review purposes. (Check out the review process post to learn more about how we review boxes).
The Subscription Box: Brick Loot
The Cost: $33 / month ($27 + $6 shipping) with options to save money on longer subscription lengths
The Products: Interlocking bricks, brick sets, and accessories from various manufacturers
Ships to: US only
Good to Know: All bricks from Brick Loot are either LEGOS or are LEGO compatible.
The information card that comes with this subscription is pretty large and details all the included products. It also lists the websites where similar items can be purchased. This month’s theme is “Build it Up!” and it’s all about construction!
Under Construction – Value $10?
This is an exclusive build for Brick Loot by BrickBuildersPro, which is awesome, but which also means I am guessing at the value. This is a really cool and realistic set depicting a construction zone, but it did make me laugh a little. My kids are already really proficient at halfway building things!
Forklift, Bulldozer, and Crane – Value $6 each?
These three machines are all Brick Loot exclusives! This is exactly the kind of thing little boys love!
USB Down Light – Value $2.50
Master Builder – Value $8?
This is the third or fourth block from liteuplock.com that Brick Loot has sent, and the boys love them! They are happy to get a new one. They also already have some construction minifigures from their Lego collection, but now with this new guy they can expand their crew. Fun!
This month’s extras are a little different than usual. Brick Loot often sends a sticker, and they did this month as well (right). This month also included a voucher to redeem a stacking top hat from Roblox, exclusive to this box. The problem is that I can’t tell if it’s a real thing or a virtual hat! I need to hand this off to my nine-year-old to investigate.
The Verdict: Brick Loot is fast becoming a favorite with my sons! I loved this month’s classic theme, too. It’s hard to put a value on their items because so many are exclusives, but I think this month comes to about $38.50 value, which is good for a $33 box.
What do you think of Brick Loot?

The mini construction vehicles are *not* Brick Loot exclusives. They have removed the non-LEGO minifigures and repackaged Jie Star sets, available (with minifig) for $1.67 each on Ali Express.
What a fun box! My brothers play Roblox, and I’m pretty sure that the hat is virtual. You typically buy cool clothing and accessories for your character in-game.
