Buka’s Brick Bestiary is the ultimate guide to LEGO fauna [News]

With thousands of different elements in dozens of colors, some with prints, most retired, and new parts appearing every month, how best to categorize LEGO bricks in a way that is useful? For Pinar,  who runs the Buka Bricks blog (in both Turkish and English!), the answer is to approach bricks less like an engineer and more like a naturalist. For years, Pinar has written about and categorized LEGO animals with the drive of a modern-day Linnaeus, creating a taxonomy and history that is as fun to browse as it is exhaustive in its coverage. Last week Pinar updated the Brick Bestiary with a new index and updated listings through 2025 sets.

Pinar’s efforts not only make it convenient to browse through all of LEGO’s cat or insect variations in a single scroll, but her scholarship and passion make the Bestiary an engaging and enlightening read. Where else will you find useful dog size guides like this…

Alongside cursed history like this?

Thank you, Pinar, for this invaluable resource.
