Most Common LEGO Parts (All Years)

This page shows the most common LEGO parts based on the assumption that you bought one of every set ever released! This is a very good way to approximate the most common parts across The LEGO Group's 70-year history producing interlocking plastic bricks. Parts which have not been included in sets from the last 5 years are considered 'Retired' and marked with an (R) symbol.

These results are sorted by the number of different sets that contain one or more of this part.
