🎪 Welcome to The Amazing Brick Circus:

Today, you will step right into the heart of the performing arts thanks to the Brick family and their wonderful circus!
Traveling from city to city to amaze both young and old, they have now chosen your town as the place to premiere their brand-new show!

Tonight’s program includes:

- Juggling with balls, hoops, and even colorful clubs
- Diabolos and spinning plates
- Balloon sculpting lessons and learning to ride a bike without training wheels for our young apprentice
- Archery and a parade on stilts
- A daring walk on a tightrope at dizzying heights (well, almost)
- An extraordinary weightlifting act (and no, just because the audience isn’t allowed to try lifting the dumbbell doesn’t mean it’s made of inflatable balloons!)
- And of course, to avoid any form of animal mistreatment while still making children dream, some of our performers will wear custom-made animal masks

Join us at 9 p.m. sharp to experience THE show of a lifetime!

Story:

I’ve always been a huge fan of circus arts, whether it’s the staging, the music, the daring feats, or the beauty of innovation.

So I wanted to pay tribute to this passion through a colorful set that brings together as many circus practices as possible, all represented in bricks.

Additional elements complete the circus with:

- Original trees, especially the oval one which required several attempts before coming to life
- A cotton candy stand for the sweet-toothed
- A helium workshop for balloons

Important note :

In recent years (at least where I live), circuses have stopped using animals. This is why I felt comfortable creating a set around such a place. I do not condone any form of potential animal mistreatment (which some circuses may have done in the past), nor the captivity of animals in environments unsuited to their natural lives (even if they were treated well).

However, I included two animal masks for two reasons: to pay tribute to the animals who, despite everything, amazed us with their performances, and to give children, who may not yet understand why animals are no longer part of the circus, something cute and symbolic to enjoy.

Playability:

Divided into 2 modules and 1 stand, this set of a little over 1,050 pieces is highly playable and easy to display.

The cotton candy stand is not attached to the central platform, and the platform with the tree and balloons can be removed simply by taking off the garland, making it easy to move the set wherever you like.

The big top has a roof that isn’t fixed in place but stays on thanks to the edges of the structure.

All the red and white panels can also be easily removed, as well as the entrance (though you may need to move the trees to reach the back one).
Although the renders don’t show this option, you can remove the blue front structures and red canvas while leaving the back intact. This lets you access the inside of the circus more easily and create a stage setup with the minifigures and their performances!

Minifigures:

The set includes 4 minifigures representing the Brick family:

- The daughter (she loves rodents but especially cotton candy)
- The mother (a diabolo expert and cotton candy maker)
- The son (rumor has it he’s moving from juggling to tightrope walking due to staff shortages)
- The father (circus owner and stilt-walker, said to be compensating for his height complex)
