Every model of the premium, high-quality Japanese brand Nanoblock is meticulously designed in our Tokyo headquarters by nanoblock experts. Read on and learn more all about the nanoblocks in Japan.

What are Japanese Nanoblocks?

Kawada, a toy business headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, produces a building block toy brand called Nanoblock, also known as Nanoburokku, in that country. Nanoblock building sets for children and adults have been quite popular since their introduction from Japan. The Japanese nanoblocks aren't like typical building blocks or lego. These amazing Nanoblock sets make fantastic and fun presents for creative people of all ages to enhance their abilities. These kits are a blast to build; you can display them among the rest of your collection after they're finished.

Moreover, every model of the high-end Japanese brand Nanoblock is meticulously designed in the company's Tokyo headquarters by nanoblock experts. Nanoblock may provide a finer level of detail on your finished designs than is feasible with conventionally sized construction bricks because its smallest block only measures 4 mm by 4 mm. Due to their miniature size, completed nanoblock building block sets make wonderful collectibles to show off at home or on your desk.

History of Japanese Nanoblock Construction Toys

The Kawada Toy Company created Nanoblocks in Japan and released them in 2008. Since its introduction in Japan, they have been sold to more than 31 nations around the world. Local businesses, such as Schylling in the US and Mark's Europe in France and the Benelux, distribute Nanoblock abroad. The word "nano," which in English means "dwarf," is derived from Ancient Greek. Although some people complain about the Nanoblocks' diminutive and detailed size, this is what made them so well-liked.

What Kinds of Nanoblock Sets Are There?

Original designs and licensed sets are also included in the selection of Nanoblock sets. The miniature collection comprises miniature versions of season-themed items as well as animal and musical instrument projects. All sets have between 80 and 150 pieces. The Adventures of TinTin, Pokémon, Shaun the Sheep, Advanced Hobby Series, and Sanrio characters are just a few of the licenses that inspired Kawada to make sets. There are also theme parks like Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea to purchase a line of sets based on Disney characters.

There are also sets containing 80 to 600 average bricks from the "Sights to See" collection, which features images of famous structures and locations worldwide to significant and fun cartoon or anime characters, animals, and other larger sets containing more than 5800 pieces of nanoblocks. With tens of thousands of different pieces, countless amazing realistic outcomes would be built. The smaller the brick, the better the figure would be. Here are some of the best nanoblocks you can find in Japan.
