Lovers of vintage radios, rejoice. This LEGO Retro Radio brings all of the nostalgia of a 1950s radio to life, brick by brick. But aside from the retro appearance, this 906-piece set brings a number of surprises to it.

From a fully working “sound brick” that plays AM/FM sounds and snippets to a working dial, the radio serves as a functional piece as well as a fun build.

Additionally, the set doubles as a smartphone stand, and your phone fits inside it nicely, letting you play any media out of the radio’s retro shell.

Available for $99, the set looks like a great addition to your collection.

 

“Enjoy an immersive building project with this LEGO® Icons Retro Radio (10334) set. Craft an ornamental replica of a 1970s vintage radio with a foldup handle and antenna, classic power and tuning dials and a sliding frequency switch.

Rotate the dials to emit tuning signals and music snippets. Mount a smartphone in the rear compartment to relish your favorite tunes while bringing a cool retro vibe to your home or office.”
