When it comes to LEGO and the many colours they produce it can be overwhelming and confusing, especially when differentiating between slightly different shades. Luckily for us LEGO fans we have a solution, the brand new 3.0 version of the Periodic Table of the LEGO Colors!
This new & updated version features 15% more colours and and parts coverage, including a unique serial number, more data and an easier to understand layout. The update comes after a two year gap from version 2.0, it’s a welcomed update that is similar to the Pantone colour chart for designers but slightly geekier by featuring the most popular LEGO colours in 2023.

The package you get to your door, after removing it from the outer packaging, is thin and tidy and presented it a contemporary way with the companies own brown tape. I personally love this and shows that they already go that extra mile to brand themselves as a premium business and brand.
Carefully slicing the tape and opening the box you get your first glimpse of your Periodic Table Of LEGO Colors. As the excitement builds your slowing peel back the bubble wrap and boom, you’re hit with the many bright and colourful pieces on display.
Holding the 30cm by 40cm product in your hand and finally getting a closer look at it is extremely satisfying, when unboxing ours I couldn’t stop smiling. The quality of the board, the data presented and of course the many new and genuine LEGO elements used in the making of it is outstanding. This may sound over the top but it’s genuinely how I feel about it and in no way swayed by it being a review copy, I would purchase this in a heartbeat.
Although not every single colour or element is represented, the board covers a huge array of official colours and matching data that will help even the most die-hard fans of LEGO. Including data specific to that part and colour is extremely helpful and one I will continue to use day in and day out. Being a (small) MOC builder myself I often struggle naming colours correctly, so having the names for both LEGO and Bricklink, I can finally find what I’m looking for and more importantly refer to them properly without causing myself embarrassment around other fans.
Information for each colour is neatly contained within the elements small but efficient space, with details such as No. of sets featuring that colour, Bricklink name & ID, official LEGO name & ID, years in production and more.
It may seem a little confusing at first but once you get to know where each bit of information is held you’ll soon be a whizz at reeling off colours and numbers left, right & centre.
Youll notice that each one is numbered, we received #890 out of 1000. This doesn’t need they’re limited, think of it as an edition number, or batch as WLWYB calls it. Other batches will be produced after this one so don’t worry about missing out.

In fact they sent us some very cool stickers too, which feature some great looking designs, funky colours and witty slogans.

Overall the Periodic Table of the LEGO Colors is stunning, straight outta’ the box. From placing your order, receiving it and unboxing it for yourself, the whole experience is a good one. The common phrase ‘you get what you pay for‘ comes to mind, you buy premium – you get premium.
