LEGO 5560, Large Pink Brick Box, is a free building brick box from the Make & Create theme, placed under Bricks & More. Released in 2009, it contains 402 pieces and 1 minifigure for creating varied small builds.

Large Pink Brick Box sits in Make & Create, within the Bricks & More branch. It is not based on a licensed story world and is not defined by a single finished model.

Building activity is therefore flexible rather than focused on one required display subject. The elements can support small models, rebuilds, simple scenes and additions to a broader personal parts collection.

This set is best understood as a play and parts resource, useful for basic construction practice and repeated rebuilding. Within Make & Create, it belongs with general brick boxes rather than model specific releases, so its value lies in adaptability and integration with other LEGO elements.
