Sometimes LEGO sets can be tricky to take apart, but other times LEGO sets are impossible to take apart. LEGO Technic has some examples of this, and some combinations of LEGO bricks make it impossible to take the set apart once you build it! Let’s explore multiple examples of the most difficult LEGO structures to take apart - including some that are complete dead ends. These dead end builds have no way to disassemble them once you assemble them.

Wild that Lego heard people complain about how hard it is to take apart the AT-AT and they pretty much just said "L + Skill Issue"

The Bionicle head was so infamous that when someone posted on the Bionicle subreddit that the poster was able to take it apart no one believed them and demanded video proof. When the proof was provided the entire sub was shaken to it's core.

I recently got myself a set that is kind of the opposite of this video's theme. Set 60385, Construction Digger, instructs you to build a small, warn down, and semi unstable bench and then the next step basically instructs you to demolish it before constructing a new, eco-friendly bench. I found it both intriguing and genious that Lego, a company all about building, purposefully created this set just so part of it could be deconstructed. It makes me wonder if there are other sets out there with a similar theme of deconstruction.

5:19 and then there's the guy that managed to separate 2×2 with hands covered in oil and without using nails

I have dented brick separators trying to get 2 2x2 plates apart💀💀💀

7:43 "Incredibly fine-tipped pliers" No, those are not pliers, they are flush-cut wire cutters. The only way to get a grip with them is for then to cut into the material slightly, with the resulting friction from the cut pressing against the sides of the blade providing the grip for removal. With all the talk of "illegal building techniques, " this is a perfect example of an "illegal disassembly technique, " as it is damaging the part to remove it.

''That you can't'' and ''That you can't easily'' is totaly different

Honnest trick that works for me: Get a set of entomology tweezers, about 15-20$, these are usually used to move insect legs and body parts to mount them in displays. These have needle-thin tips that can fit in the space between a cross-shaped axle and the part it's in around the base or in the dips of the cross if it's in a round hole. They are bad at prying things since they are so thin as to be fragile but you can still get enough force through them to dig into lego plastic if you are not delicate enough with them.

Those arent fine tipped pliers, they're plastic cutters. That man is walking the razor thin line between not holding it hard enough to actually grip the piece and holding it too hard resulting in a broken piece.

8:36 EXTREMELY SIMPLE just push out the gray pins

[rc-fannl]

8:43 Aren't those just 7L axles connecting things? Then it's just a matter of taking another axle and push the 7L axles out. Seems easy...

[Omabatfartsbruh]

the bionicle heads are actually effortless to take apart if you just use two axles and push the brain stalk out through the mouth axle

[ToonamiTM]

I regularly would remove the Bionicle eyes from the head. Just need a small flat head screwdriver. Slide it in between the two parts and twist.

7:11 I'm pretty sure the brown pins are easier to slide in as both pins can be rotated in a way that they make room for each other (just like gears gripping each other). That should be enough to let the second one slide in with some friction.

[DJDroz-ghnt]

Here's how you take them apart.
*Chucks them in the plastic recycling machine.*

[melissathompson]

1:17 you can take out the pin and then rotate it

[nicolasvelarde]

I think the hypothetical tool that could work on many of these would be a specialized version on pliers to extract axle pieces, don’t know how to explain the shape but something that slides in the extra space and grabs onto the axle.

1:12 just remove the grey one rotate its L and pull
