Sadness

Set Review - #40749-1: Joy, Sadness & Anxiety - Inside Out 2 - Brickheadz

Another Brickheadz set. This one is Joy, Sadness & Anxiety from the Disney Pixar movie “Inside Out 2.” This set was released on 1 June 2024 and retails for $19.99. It contains 300 pieces and the price per piece works out to $0.067. The set contains three Brickheadz. Number 239 is Sadness, number 240 is Joy, and number 241 is Anxiety. The front of the box shows the characters with the Brickheadz and “Inside Out 2” logos. It also has the number of each character in the Brickheadz line. The back shows the characters in different views.

The set contains six parts bags and three instruction booklets. Interestingly, I didn’t see a spot to scan in the instructions to get Insiders points. I wonder why?

Bags one and two build Joy. Nothing too out of the ordinary here. The front and back have printed tiles for her dress. The hair is made up of blue and translucent blue plates and tiles. It is a slightly different color of yellow from the standard yellow so that part is good. Not much else to report.

Bags three and four assemble Sadness. Again, not a whole lot special here. She is only three studs wide versus the four studs in Joy. I do like that the eyes are 2x2 round tiles to show her glasses. That’s a nice touch.

Bags five and six assemble Anxiety. I haven’t seen the movie yet so I don’t know much about the character, but the printed teeth and big eyes are a fun touch. The hair assembly with the translucent pieces is a cool design too. Beyond that, it’s a fairly simple build.

Here are the final builds of the three characters. As mentioned, nothing super exciting here. Rumor has it, these will be retiring at the end of the 2024 so if you’re a Brickheadz collector or a fan of the movie, grab this one soon. Otherwise, I wouldn’t go nuts trying to find this one. I enjoyed the first movie and added this set in to grab a GWP so no complaints from me.

Happy building!
