Unplug from your digital life and recall simpler times as you build a LEGO Ideas model of an old-fashioned typewriter (21327). The design is inspired by the classic typewriter used by the LEGO Group’s founder Ole Kirk Kristiansen, and it moves and sounds just like the real thing. The brick-built centre typebar rises each time a letter key is pressed and is linked to the carriage that moves across as you type. There is also a platen roller that you can feed real paper into.

Created by a LEGO fan and voted for by LEGO fans, this detailed typewriter model comes with a letter written by Thomas Kirk Kristiansen, a member of the fourth generation of the LEGO Group’s owner family – slot his letter into the typewriter to complete a delightful display piece. Part of a collection of premium-quality LEGO building kits for adults, this model comes with clear instructions and makes the best gift for yourself, LEGO fans, writers and lovers of all things retro.

The Toys101 Fast Dispatch Commitment

We aim to deliver your order within 2 to 4 business days.

Once you place your order, we’ll pick, pack, and dispatch it within 1 business day. So, if you order now, we’ll have it on its way by the same time tomorrow. If today’s a weekend or public holiday, we’ll dispatch it on the next business day.

You’ll receive two emails from us:

1. Invoice – sent once your order is picked and packed.
2. Tracking details – sent when the courier collects your parcel from our warehouse.

Delivery usually takes 1 to 3 business days, depending on your location. South Island and rural customers—you know the drill! During busy times (like the Christmas rush), delivery may take an extra 1 to 2 days.

Outer Island Deliveries

We love sending toys to the Outer Islands (e.g. Chatham, Kawau, Waiheke, Great Barrier)—thanks for shopping with us! We think you’ll find our delivery fees to these destinations very reasonable.

Delivery Fees

New Zealand’s geography makes courier costs a bit tricky, but we’ve worked hard to keep things fair. Our fees reflect not just distance, but also the care and packaging we put into getting your toys to you safely.
