LEGO 11717, Bricks Bricks Plates, is a Classic theme set released in 2020. It includes 1504 pieces and provides a broad supply of bricks, plates and useful elements for open ended building.
Set 11717 belongs to the LEGO Classic theme, a range focused on general building rather than a single licensed setting or character group. Bricks Bricks Plates works as a parts assortment, intended to support original models and expand an existing collection of basic elements.
That mix supports simple buildings, vehicles, small play scenes and experimental structures, while keeping the emphasis on reusable parts rather than a fixed display subject.
It is suited to play, practice and parts collecting. Within the Classic theme, it can be understood as a versatile stock box, useful alongside more model driven sets because it supplies the ordinary components often needed to modify, repair or extend custom builds.
