About

BrickDb

Features
Read full description

BrickDb is a collection manager for builders and collectors of LEGO® sets, minifigures and parts. Catalogue every set you own, copy by copy: multiple copies of the same set in different conditions, up to 20 photos of each, and a real condition profile instead of a single “used” flag. Minifigures and loose parts get the same depth. Scan the DataMatrix codes on collectable-minifigure bags to identify a figure before you buy or build. Browse catalogue data for sets, parts and minifigures, and see market value shown as a range with its sample size and time window – never a single number dressed up as certainty. Keep your own creations too: under My MOCs you store each model you designed yourself with photos, a parts list and instructions, and decide whether it stays private or is published to the MOC gallery, where anyone can browse what other builders have made. No account is required to browse the catalogue or use the scanner. LEGO® is a trademark of the LEGO Group of companies. The LEGO Group does not sponsor, authorise or endorse this application.
