Coverage and price on four sample sets
We searched each store for the same four sets on 30 October 2026: Titanic 10294, Hogwarts Castle and Grounds 76419, Red Dragon's Tale 21348 and Hubble Space Telescope 11382. All four stores listed a Titanic, Hogwarts and Red Dragon's Tale kit. For Hubble, Lightailing listed a BriksMax 2.0 kit, BRKOX and Game of Bricks listed kits, and Light My Bricks' search results we read did not include one. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][10][11][12][15][21][24][26][27][28] Prices are in US dollars as each store served them, exclude shipping and change often; where a store lists versions, the range runs from the cheapest to the dearest. Game of Bricks' figures are the base prices in its product data, which its storefront converts from US dollars when it displays euros. [15][16]
On these sets BRKOX and Lightailing were the cheapest, Game of Bricks sat in the middle for a basic kit but higher for remote and sound tiers, and Light My Bricks was the most expensive by a wide margin.
Several Lightailing prices here were sale prices. Its Spooky Deals collection listed a $24.04 Lightailing Hogwarts kit, the $31.84 Lightailing Red Dragon's Tale kit and the $71.49 BriksMax Titanic kit at 35% below the store's compare-at prices of $36.99, $48.99 and $109.99, with no end date shown. If the sale ends, the gap to other stores narrows. [23]
| Set | Lightailing | BRKOX | Game of Bricks | Light My Bricks |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Titanic 10294 | $71.49-$81.99 | $89.00 | $82.99-$176.99 | $299.99 |
| Hogwarts Castle and Grounds 76419 | $24.04-$45.99 | $39.00-$48.50 | $42.99-$56.99 | $99.99 |
| Red Dragon's Tale 21348 | $31.84-$69.99 | $79.00-$89.00 | $86.99-$102.99 | $109.99 |
| Hubble Space Telescope 11382 | $31.84 (BriksMax 2.0) | $59.00-$89.00 | $64.99-$74.99 | Not in search results |
BRKOX: similar prices, duties included
BRKOX ships to the United States, United Kingdom, Canada and Australia, processes orders in 1 to 3 business days and lists standard delivery of 7 to 15 business days or expedited delivery of 3 to 7. Its FAQ says standard shipping is free on light kit orders of $69 or more, with smaller orders charged at checkout, and its shipping policy says all duties and taxes are included, so there should be nothing extra to pay on delivery. [22][8] Its refund policy allows free cancellation within 48 hours of ordering if the order has not shipped, though its FAQ says to ask for changes or cancellation within 24 hours, so act on the same day. [9][22] The refund policy gives 30 days to return a defective product, charges no restocking fee and sends approved refunds within 10 business days. Returns caused by the buyer are at the buyer's shipping cost, and sale items cannot be returned unless damaged or defective. [9]
Its kits come in versions on some sets: Hubble was listed from $59 to $89 depending on the version. [7] Choose BRKOX if you live in one of its four shipping countries, want a predictable landed price, and want delivery faster than Lightailing's standard post. Skip it if you are outside those countries.
Game of Bricks and Light My Bricks
Game of Bricks lists its kits in versions: Classic and Remote for Hogwarts Castle, Red Dragon's Tale and Hubble, and Classic, Remote and Remote + Sound for Titanic. [15][26][27][28] Its shipping policy lists DHL delivery in about 3 to 9 business days to the US and UK after dispatch within 1 to 3 business days, and its listings say shipping is free worldwide. [16][15] The trade-offs are in the refund policy: cancellation only within 15 minutes of ordering, a 30-day money-back guarantee from receipt with the customer paying return postage, and no change-of-mind refunds except where law requires. [17]
Light My Bricks says it is an Australian company in Melbourne; its US store ships from Humble, Texas, to all US states, Mexico and South America, free over $100 or $9.99 flat below that. [13] Its searches showed one kit per set, with a Remote Control Pack sold separately, and documents a 5V, 2.4A power system with fuse protection and certified components. [13] It accepts unopened returns within 30 days and gives a two-year warranty when its own power sources are used. [13][14] Choose it if you are in the Americas and want a premium, documented system; skip it if price is the constraint.
DIY LED parts when no kit exists
If nobody sells a kit for your set, or you want to light a custom build, every store here also sells loose parts. Lightailing's own store lists BriksMax DIY parts such as V2 expansion boards in three-packs from $11.99 and V2 connecting cables in three-packs from $9.99. [25] Game of Bricks sells expansion boards, 2-pin and 4-pin cables from 5 to 50 cm, USB port splitters and battery boxes. [29][30][31] Light My Bricks says it offers individual DIY components including Astro Lights, Meteor Lights, expansion boards, effect boards and connecting cables. [13]
DIY means you plan the light positions, cable runs and power yourself, and parts from different brands are not interchangeable: Lightailing's own listings say its V2 connectors do not fit its earlier V1 parts. [25] Our DIY LED versus light kit guide covers the trade-offs in more detail.
Reasons to switch, and when to stay with Lightailing
Stay with Lightailing if it has your set and you want the lowest price, a choice between Lightailing and BriksMax designs, or a store that ships worldwide from China, US and EU warehouses with free standard shipping from $69. [18][20] Its two-year warranty covers eligible products, and it pays return postage for its own errors and verified defects. [19] The main reasons to look elsewhere are timing, returns and coverage: its standard shipping estimate is 15 to 35 business days to North America or Europe, change-of-mind and wrong-version returns are generally refused, and duties are paid by the recipient. [18][19]
| Reason to switch | Look at | Why, from published pages |
|---|---|---|
| Need it within about two weeks | Game of Bricks or BRKOX expedited | DHL 3-9 business days to US/UK; BRKOX expedited 3-7 |
| Want no surprise import charges | BRKOX (US, UK, CA, AU) | Policy says all duties and taxes are included |
| Want sound effects | Game of Bricks | Remote + Sound tier on sets such as Titanic |
| Might return it unopened | Light My Bricks | Unopened returns within 30 days |
| Want a documented power limit | Light My Bricks | 5V 2.4A; wall adapter up to 400 LEDs |
| Set not covered anywhere | DIY parts from any of the four | Loose lights, boards and cables sold separately |
Questions before you decide
What is the cheapest alternative to Lightailing?
On the four sets we checked on 30 October 2026, BRKOX was usually closest: for example $89.00 for Titanic against Lightailing's $71.49 to $81.99, and $39.00 to $48.50 for Hogwarts Castle against $24.04 to $45.99.
Which alternative ships fastest?
On published estimates, Game of Bricks lists DHL delivery of about 3 to 9 business days to the US and UK after 1 to 3 days of dispatch, and BRKOX lists expedited delivery of 3 to 7 business days after 1 to 3 days of processing.
Which LEGO light kit store includes import duties?
BRKOX's shipping policy says all duties and taxes are included for its four shipping countries, the US, UK, Canada and Australia. Lightailing says the recipient pays any duties or taxes charged.
Can I use another brand's cables with a Lightailing kit?
Not reliably. Lightailing's own listings say its V2 connectors are not compatible with its V1 parts, so mixing brands is riskier still. Buy extra parts from the brand and version your kit uses.
