I wanted to try out another smaller set in the Lumibricks range. I have been really enjoying the Street Fusion theme and after building the Record Store and the Skate Shop, I figured why not go for the Lumibricks Graffiti Bus Stop next. I wanted to see if Lumibricks could deliver three out of three hits.
This one is a much smaller build, but straight away it felt like it belonged in the same world as the other Street Fusion sets. Graffiti, street grit, and loads of character.
Quick Summary
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Great graffiti and atmosphere | Two separate power sources; wireless connectors would have been better |
| Strong print quality | Value is a little high compared to larger sets |
| Lovely storytelling details | |
| Lighting looks great when everything is on | |
| Fits perfectly into the Street Fusion theme |
A small but powerful little scene that nails the Street Fusion look. Great prints, great atmosphere, and loads of charm. Expensive for the size, but worth it once built.

First Impressions
For a small set, this thing has a lot going on. The graffiti is once again the star of the show. The whole bus stop is covered in tags, and there is a graffiti artist in the background spraying the wall. Spray cans scattered on the floor. It fits right in with the look of the Record Store and Skate Shop.
There is also a small pocket flea market stall to the side, which adds a cute extra detail and helps the whole thing feel more alive. Another nice touch is the street sign pointing toward Spin Records, tying everything together with the other sets in the theme.
The bus stop itself has a great run down look. Graffiti on the glass, grime, old stickers, all of it makes it feel like a real place you may have avoided at some point.
And the back wall is brilliant too. There’s a paint roller leaning on the wall with white paint dripping down the wall and onto the ground. It is such a clever little touch. The ladder against the wall completes the scene. You can imagine this messy artist climbing up there to tag the high spots. All fully approved by the council / authorities, of course.
The Build and Experience
The build is simple and straightforward. Nothing complicated and nothing slow. But I enjoyed every minute of it.
The whole thing is actually built as three separate sections that then connect together. Because of this, there are two separate lighting systems for the two main sections (The Bus Stop and Graffiti wall). Each has its own small CR2032 battery box. One is hidden under the bus stop and the other sits behind the wall section. Both are hidden well and easy to access. The final section connects to the left which has no lighting in this section.
This is the slight downside. You have two battery packs, each requiring a CR2032 cell. Some Lumibricks sets have wireless connectors, so you can power multiple sections from one source. It would have been nice for that to be implemented here. To help, Lumibricks include two USB cables and extension wires, so you can power both halves from a USB splitter if you want.
Print quality is the normal Lumibricks high standard. No stickers, everything crisp and clean. The newspapers, posters, graffiti art, all of it looks spot on.
Accessibility
The set is built in sections, which makes it easy to access the battery boxes and lighting cables. Everything connects and disconnects easily, and nothing feels cramped or awkward.
Printed Parts
Oh no… stickers! But don’t panic. These are just optional extras thrown into the box. You don’t need a single one for the actual build. They’re more like bonus “fun pieces” you can use to customise other sets, or even your own home if you’re feeling bold.
The build itself uses Lumibricks’ usual well-printed parts to add detail throughout. And the graffiti is easily the highlight for me. Crisp, colourful and full of attitude. It gives the whole set its personality.
Minifigures
You get four minifigures:
• A flea-market vendor
• A worker waiting for the bus
• A skateboarder
• The shady hooded graffiti artist
It’s a surprisingly generous lineup for a small scene and they all add life to the display.
Lighting System
The lighting on this set is spot on. It’s the usual well-balanced Lumibricks setup that makes the graffiti and all the little details stand out without going crazy bright. Just a clean, warm glow that brings the whole scene to life.
Once the lights are on, the bus stop suddenly feels alive. The graffiti jumps out at you, the colours look richer, and the wall behind gets this great moody look thanks to the lamppost shining down over it. It almost feels like you’ve stumbled across this corner at night in some backstreet.
Everything works together to show off what the set does best.
Instructions
The instructions are clear, colourful, and easy to follow. Typical Lumibricks quality. The layout is clean, and the cable-routing steps are shown plainly, so nothing feels confusing.
Pricing and Value
The value was the biggest surprise for me. At £39 for 514 pieces, it doesn’t look great on paper. I know price per piece is a bad metric but it still crossed my mind. With discounts you can bring it down a bit, but even then it’s slightly high.
That said, after building it, I would happily pay full price. It just resonated with me. It is full of attitude and charm and it fits the Street Fusion theme perfectly.
Because the footprint is small, you do lose a lot of room if you place it straight next to the bigger modulars. I mounted mine on a full 32 x 32 MILS plate. The extra space let me merge another small set onto the same base, which worked out really well. I will post that build soon.
Final Thoughts
I am starting to sound like a broken record now, but Lumibricks really are smashing it with this Street Fusion theme. The Bus Stop might be a small set but it delivers a ton of personality. The graffiti, the atmosphere, the storytelling, it’s all there.
If you are already collecting the Street Fusion line, this is a perfect addition. If you want a small starter set to test the waters, this is also a great pick.
Three builds in, and it’s three out of three wins for me.
Verdict
The Lumibricks Graffiti Bus Stop is a small but powerful little scene that nails the Street Fusion look. Great prints, great atmosphere, and loads of charm.
It’s expensive for its size, and the dual battery box setup is a little clunky, but none of that matters once you see it lit up. It fits perfectly alongside the Skate Shop and Record Store, completing the neighbourhood with style.
Three builds in, and it’s three out of three wins for me. An easy recommendation.
Simple, fast, satisfying.
Nails the gritty urban vibe.
Great look, clunky power setup.
Pricey per piece, but cool.
Where to buy
You can buy Lumibricks directly from their official website or through their Amazon store.
The Official Site: It is worth knowing that they run a rewards program (similar to LEGO Insiders). You earn points on every purchase which can be swapped for money-off vouchers later—so if you plan to buy multiple sets, buying direct often pays off.
Amazon: Generally offers faster delivery and stock is more consistent. They also tend to have random discounts that the official site doesn’t match.
My Recommendation: I always check both links below. If Amazon has a lower price, I grab it there for the savings and speed. If the prices are roughly the same, I buy from the official site to bank the loyalty points.
