LEGO set 10698, Large Creative Brick Box, is part of the Classic theme and was released in 2015.

Large Creative Brick Box belongs to the Classic theme, which focuses on basic LEGO elements and open-ended construction. Set 10698 does not depict a specific vehicle, building, or licensed scene. Its role is to provide a supply of parts for original builds, alterations, and additions to existing creations.

The building experience is therefore guided by the builder’s own choices rather than by a single display subject.

This set suits play, experimentation, and expanding a Classic parts collection. It is less about presenting a finished display model and more about repeated building, rebuilding, and part reuse. Within the Classic theme, it sits as a broad general assortment for builders who want a versatile pool of bricks.
