Find missing LEGO parts and check how repairable sets are
6 followers
BrickMissing is a free tool for LEGO builders. Track which parts you're missing from any of 17,000+ sets, see every set a part appears in, and check a set's "repair risk" before you buy second-hand: the share of its parts that are nearly impossible to source because they only ever existed in a handful of sets. Built on 1.1M inventory records; the repairability dataset is a free CC BY 4.0 download.
How does the repair risk score stay accurate over time as LEGO keeps releasing new sets that might suddenly make a rare part more available?
Looked up an old Black Falcon set I half built as a kid and it flagged the cockpit piece as nearly impossible to find now, which probably explains the missing one on my shelf for 20 years. The repair risk idea is genuinely useful before buying used.
Finally a tool that solves the real headache of buying used sets blind. Checked a couple of old Star Wars sets and the repair risk scores were genuinely eye-opening, would've saved me from a few brick nightmares.
