As LEGO collectors, we can never have too many basic bricks. Unfortunately the price in terms of parts has gone up over time and gone are the days when you could purchase a thousand piece LEGO brick tub for around twenty dollars. Here is a look at some of the current Lego basic brick tubs on the market.

This LEGO pink brick box comes with 216 pieces at a price of $14.99. It is styled towards young girls and is LEGO set number 5585. It has been a long time since a pink brick tub has been created. What kind of pieces does this brick box include?

It has much of the standard fare, but includes a number of dark brick LEGO bricks and light pink ones. These color bricks are difficult to find in many sets and it also includes some white fence posts. The models that can be created out of this tub are a small house, a pink LEGO car, and some children figures.

There are no long LEGO bricks that come with this tub, and it is nothing special for the money at around eight cents a brick. Still, it makes an excellent gift for a young girl and is fairly affordable if given as a gift, although it may not appeal to experienced LEGO collectors.
