Still in the bookstore section, the book LEGO WorldBuilder will be available on September 5, 2024 and this 128-page book will be accompanied by a set of 150 parts allowing you to assemble the 4-in-1 model supplied with your choice of a car, an all-terrain vehicle, a spaceship or even a submarine.

In the pages of the book, some construction ideas without detailed instructions, so it is more of an "inspiration" book than a construction guide in the literal sense of the term.

The official description of the product published by Dorling Kindersley also mentions the presence of a sorting bin for the parts supplied, we will have to wait to see if the accessory helps to justify the price of the thing which is currently a little more than €30.
