To keep your LEGO Create the World cards all in one place, you’ll need to pick up one of the Collectors Albums. These have space for all 140 cards. You’ll notice pages have spaces for each card, along with four corner slots. Each card needs to be placed in two of the slots, with the remaining two slots being used to place another card on the opposite page.
The collection includes two main card types standard character cards and shiny Create Cards. Character cards can be used to play a number of different cards. You’ll notice they features either a Rock, Paper & Scissor symbol on each card. Rock beats Scissor, Scissor Beats Paper and Paper Beats Rock. You can also play Dominoes, with the rules being found in the Collectors Album and using your swaps, why not play snap.
Create cards each feature a real world LEGO build, you can use your own bricks or various LEGO sets to create any of the builds featured on the cards. Simply visit service.LEGO.com and enter the number shown next to each Create card in the Collectors Album index. You’ll then be able to download instructions for the builds shown.

i got a fairy tale princess is it rare or bannana suit guy or sam or medusa
27th September 2020
The Create! cards are a little rarer as they are only in certain packs. But these have been produced in the millions so not really worth anything at all, not in the same way as say a rare Pokémon card is
7th October 2020
You need a take your recipt to a member of staff and they give them to you
30th August 2018
How do you put a card in when one is already on the other side!?
30th August 2018
You use the opposite two corners. So each card should only be place in two corners per side. See the front of the collectors album for more details
8th October 2018
Could you tell me what it means when I got got a golden shiny lily in roman armour
8th October 2018

1st September 2018
The card numbers don’t seem to be right e.g. the surgeon holding an x-ray is 078 but would make more sense as 114 – or am I missing something?
1st September 2018
Sorry, it all makes sense now!!
17th September 2018
Same! I’ve removed the rock, paper, scissors ones but it still doesn’t make sense!
2nd September 2018
How do you do the create cards on the website? Been on the site and it shows us how to buy the lego’s but not how to build
2nd September 2018
The Create builds are taken from various LEGO sets, type the set number listed next to each Create card in the collectors albums index, into the LEGO Service site listed above, which will show you which set the Create build is part of. You can then either purchase the set shown or download the instructions and build with your own bricks.
25th September 2018
iv searched under the themes and entered the number on the card but I cant find the build instructions.
21st October 2018
can you tell me how you found the build instructions please?
21st October 2018
Type the number next to the Create cards in the index, into the LEGO website instructions will come up and the builds are part of these various instructions

I opted out of receiving Lego cards on the Sainsburys grocery app. I can’t find how to opt to receive them now my grandson has asked for them – can you tell me how to opt back in?
13th September 2018
Unfortunately as I’m not a user of the app, all I can suggest is that you contact Sainsbury’s directly. They can be reached via social media, via email or the Sainsbury’s website and via phone on 08003281700

My boy got a pack of Lego cards from Sainsbury’s and there was only 2 cards in the pack not 4 like stated . I have a video as proof as when we felt the pack before opening noticed it did not feel the same as the rest of the packs we got.a Disappointed boy. Has anyone else had this happen to their children too ???
21st September 2018
Kimberley Roberts I had something similar. I just emailed customer service. I said it was with 4 bought packs at a cost of £2, and they put £5 on my nectar card for my troubles.
11th October 2018
I once got a pack of 5 cards
23rd September 2018
Yes the same happened to us and I then had 5 in the next packet we opened
30th September 2018
Hi, we opened 8 packs today only to find three cards in each pack. So frustrating as my son only needs 8 cards to finish his album 🙁
30th September 2018
I had 2 packs with only 1 card in.
14th September 2018
My boy only got 2 cards in a pack of Lego cards from Sainsbury’s. I have a video as noticed the difference to the other packs we have. I had a disappointed little boy and the pack stated clearly 4 cards . I am unable to upload the video. Anyone else’s child experienced the same disappointment??
15th September 2018
Why doesn’t the Sainsbury’s Petrol kiosk give away the Lego card(s) when I spend over £10 of petrol? Not fair.
21st September 2018
I have a few cards with the same number on but a different character/picture.
Has anyone else come across this, am I missing something?
Thank you
29th September 2018
When Sainsbury’s finish giving the cards out is there anyway we can buy the missing ones my 6’year old is missing 7 to fill his album?
29th September 2018
No officially like you would with say football stickers you buy in shops. There are numerous trading groups on Facebook. That’s probably the best way to get the last few apart from using eBay
12th October 2018
Does anyone need any to complete a set, as we have lots of spares.

We’ve filled the book what now? Any Lego prizes??
7th October 2018
Why didn’t staff at Sainsburys promote the booster cards, I’ve just spent a lot of money and effort to get a lot of packs through shopping for my grandson in Australia but now it seems without any booster cards it’s been a total waste of time as he won’t have a full set regardless of what I have to send him.
Or am I missing something.
as below details (from top of page)
Completing The Collection: You’ll need to get a mixture of free cards and booster packs, as they contain different sort of cards.
8th October 2018

9th October 2018
We are two cards short of completing the book! And now Sainsbury’s has stopped them.
We have millions of doubles. Is there anywhere online to trade?
9th October 2018
There are numerous LEGO facebook groups some of which are purely focused on LEGO Trading Cards

How do I obtain a blue 2018 album for grandchildren?
Many thanks
26th January 2019
I would assume eBay now, as the promotion ended in stores months ago, so they won’t have them anymore.
19th September 2020
The symbols at the top left look like a set could be used to play the game I knew as a child as ‘take 2’.
7th October 2020

My two grandchildren only need numbers 8 and 65.
Last week I got them on my online Sainsburys order – I received 9 packs.

whatever reason they did not arrive!
Does anyone have these two numbered cards.
