Best LEGO Creator 3in1 sets: Flowers, cameras & more
LEGOThe LEGO Creator 3in1 collection comprises myriad extremely cool sets. However, which is best? We’ve rounded up the best LEGO Creator 3in1 kits and where you can buy them.
LEGO’s Creator 3in1 collection is extremely popular. It’s no wonder why — each LEGO Creator 3in1 set offers LEGO builders the choice to build one of three models. That’s cool. Very cool. The question remains — which one will you choose?

To make the list, the set must provide LEGO creators with an immersive and rewarding building experience. Of course, that’s not all. When each model’s bricks have been clicked together, it should elicit a smile, whether it’s during play or when looking at it on display.
