Why We Offer 4 Ways to Buy — And Make Bible Stories Accessible to All
At The Word Bricks, we have always had a love for LEGO® and storytelling and storymaking. Having spent countless hours building as kids (and adults!), we often found ourselves frustrated that we had to buy entire sets just to get a specific character or figure. That experience stuck with us — That’s why we offer four unique ways to buy, giving everyone the freedom to build, collect, and share God’s Word in the way that suits them best.
PDF Manual Only
For those who already have LEGO® bricks at home and want to bring our Bible stories to life without purchasing new sets, we offer a PDF build manual option. This allows you to follow step-by-step instructions to recreate our sets using the bricks you already own. It’s a flexible, cost-effective way to enjoy The Word Bricks, empowering builders to combine creativity, faith, and existing resources while still experiencing the full story-building adventure.
Sets Without Figures
For those who love building or already have a growing collection of our Minifigures, our brick-only sets are the perfect choice. These versions let you experience the story scene in full detail — from the Nativity to the Healing at the Pool of Bethesda — without having to buy additional figures or duplicates. It’s a great way to enjoy the design and narrative of each biblical moment while keeping costs low.
Sets With Set Specific Minifigures
Want the full experience? Our sets with Set Specific minifigures include our custom-printed LEGO® minifigures — real LEGO® blanks printed with detailed artwork inspired by each biblical character. These figures bring the stories to life, whether it’s Jesus teaching, Matthew following his call, or Mary at the manger. Every figure adds a layer of depth and connection to the story behind the bricks.
Individual Minifigures
Perfect for collectors, educators, or anyone who loves the disciples’ stories, we also offer individual minifigures which you can also buy in bundles so that you have a bundle discount. Each one is carefully designed, custom printed, and full of biblical meaning. Whether you want to collect and buy all twelve apostles right away as a bundle or start with your favorite character, these minifigures are fun to display, teach your children about God’s Word and meaningful reminders of faith.
We know what it feels like to want just one meaningful figure — or to build a scene without needing to buy an entire new set. That’s why we designed The Word Bricks website differently when it comes to purchasing options. Offering multiple ways to buy really alligns with our mission and beliefs — making biblical storytelling through play accessible, flexible, and affordable.
Because for us, this isn’t just about solving the frustration we once had — it’s about making the teaching of the Word of God as accessible as possible so that all can hear and be taught the Good News.
