Build Your Fairytale Collection with LEGO BrickHeadz Belle
The LEGO BrickHeadz set “Belle” features 4124 colorful LEGO System bricks to recreate all the iconic details from the classic Disney animation, “Beauty and the Beast.” The construction character of Belle includes buildable flowing hair with a ribbon and earrings, as well as a buildable and detachable rose in hand. The set also includes a display baseplate with series number and BrickHeadz icon. Each BrickHeadz character comes with its own buildable collector’s baseplate. The set stands over 2” (7cm) tall without the baseplate, which measures over 1” (4cm) square and under 1” (1cm) high. This set was designed as part of the Disney BrickHeadz collection, adding fairytale romance to any LEGO enthusiast’s home or office.

Fan Buzz
The Belle BrickHeadz set, released in March 2017, garnered positive reviews from fans and collectors. One review from DutchFlyer describes, “The build was actually more fun than I had expected at first. The construction of the core of the figure is not that interesting at all, but it is nice to see how the designer has built up the details to give the figure its looks. For Belle that is above all her hair.” The reviewer also notes the value for money and the set’s appeal as an alternative room decoration, stating, “Belle and the Beast are a very nice option.” Additionally, the review highlights that Belle has influenced the reviewer to consider purchasing more BrickHeadz sets in the future, making it a compelling addition to any collection (DutchFlyer, 2018).
