Vintage LEGO 544-1 Basic / Universal Building Set (1981) – Complete with Instructions & Minifig Description This vintage LEGO set 544-1 Basic / Universal Building Set from 1981 is a true classic from the Basic line. Starting in the 1970s, these sets were designed to encourage creativity and free building, without being tied to a fixed theme. With standard LEGO bricks in a variety of colors, you can build endlessly and create your own designs. I personally built 2 models from the instruction booklet (see photos). To further inspire creativity, LEGO included official B-models: alternative builds made with the same parts. For this set, these include a House, Farm, Car, Plane, Ship, Petrol Station, Windmill, Bird, Van, Air Traffic Control Tower, Race Car, Bulldozer and more. • Number of parts: 135 • 100% complete, carefully checked against the Bricklink part list (see photos) • Includes the original instruction booklet in perfect condition (see photos) • Includes 1 original minifig (see photos) • All parts have been carefully cleaned • For its age in remarkably good condition: hardly any discoloration of the bricks • Will be carefully packed and shipped
