60th Anniversary Building Bigger Thinking sets revealed
Posted by Huw,
Images for the five interestingly named Building Bigger Thinking sets have been published by Kockashop.hu.
From the box images they appear to be basic boxes of random parts, selected to enable models of a particular theme, e.g. underwater, to be built, but I suspect there's more to them that that.
Each one contains a 2x4 tile printed with '60 years' -- 2018 being the 60th anniversary of the filing of the LEGO brick patent.
Thanks to AgentKallus for the news.

Honestly, I expected more. These are just regular Creator boxes with a vague theme and a 60th anniversary tile :/
Love the convertible (open top) space shuttle for 2 minifigs on the 10405 set!
SO no rumored "CLASSIC SPACE/CASTLE/PIRATES" ?
That's quite sad, but those look like a fun packs.
These do look like they contain lots of nice pieces and ideas.
There's a typo in the shop's name, a "c" is missing. It's called Kockashop - "kocka" is "brick" in Hungarian.
@RacingBrick - Thanks, corrected.
Looking at the different questions along the sides of each box I wonder if these sets intended to be of a similar nature to the Serious Play, or Education sets.
These may not be the only anniversary sets this year - LEGO's been keeping things tighter than ever before so you never know if maybe they have plenty more things planned.
WOW Instead of simple parts they are useful parts and the 2x4 printed tile looks so great
Yes, yes,yes finnaly plain torsos in pink, purple and orange. love these sets just because of this reason!
They look boring.
These look excellent! Love the retro packaging and it's good to see lego pushing the 'lego play' for adults a bit further.
I’m just guessing/hoping that there will be some kind of ‘anniversary build’ plans later on? Like they did with the 40th Technic anniversary sets, which required parts from three sets.
Wow, I like them all.
Plain pink torso! <3
I don't understand those who are thinking this looks like creator. It looks like classic and this looks good!
This is definitely going to be an interesting theme and I hope more of these sets will come in the upcoming years :D
Classic + Creator = Building Bigger Thinking
...
well, I definetly grab some of these. I love vague themes and assortment of details seems good. Plus those nostalgic heads.
@lordofdragonss, if you’re missing Classic Space set, might I suggest that you vote (early and often ;) and who knows maybe LEGO will bring it back!

Ages 5-99 :)
Well I like them. I keep saying it but if we learnt one thing from The Lego Movie it's that following the instructions is only the beginning! More mixed brick boxes please. I would have liked more theming - space, castle, WESTERN! And I would have loved a technic 'universal set' like they used to make. But this will do for now.
TRU in the US has these out already
