Turn Your Table Into a Stadium: BR0010 Desktop Soccer Game with a Moving Goalkeeper

• 2,247 building pieces — numbered bags by build stage
• LED light bricks, speaker and wiring — fitted during the build
• Mini footballs and player figures
• Trophy and spotlight parts
• Printed step-by-step manual
• Retail box

Set a ball in the launch position under one of the kick buttons. Watch the keeper. Press when the gap opens.

• Four kick buttons: spring-loaded, positioned around the pitch, each giving a different angle on goal. Pure mechanical — press and the ball goes.
• Twin scoring dials: one per player. Turn yours when you score.
• Head-to-head: the console has two dials, so it’s built for one-on-one. Larger groups can rotate through and reset between rounds.
• Solo play: the four kick positions give you four different problems to solve — which one can you beat the keeper from most reliably?

The goalkeeper moves. He tracks left and right across the goalmouth on his own, driven by a motor. Wait for the gap, or watch him swallow it. Without batteries he stands still — which turns a timing game into target practice. You’ll want the six AAAs in for the real thing.

The kicking is mechanical. Four independent spring launchers are built into the stadium. No power is needed for the kick itself — the energy comes from the spring you compress when you press the button.

The scoring is mechanical too. The twin dials use ratchets under the console. Turn yours forward one click per goal.

• Stadium lighting: twist-on LED bricks around the pitch.
• Lit trophy: a gold cup with its own spotlight, standing over the pitch. Most desk games have no way to say you won. This one does.
• Sound: kick and crowd effects fire as you play, through the included speaker.
• Battery power: 6 × AAA run the goalkeeper’s motor, the stadium lighting, the trophy spotlight and the sound.

At 2,247 pieces, this is a bigger and more mechanical build than a display model, because almost all of it has to function at the end. The keeper’s slide rail, four independent spring launchers, and the ratchets under the scoring dials are all brick-built. You test them as you go rather than discovering a problem on the last page.

Bricks and fit: all 2,247 pieces are molded in ABS to a tight clutch tolerance. That matters more on a game than on a shelf piece — this thing gets pressed, knocked and argued over, so the joints have to hold through repeated play. Everything still comes apart cleanly if you want to rebuild.

Planning modifications? If you intend to change the wiring or run it on a different battery type, email us first and we’ll confirm whether the design supports it.

BR0010 is one of the easiest sets to give, because the person opening it gets two things — a build to sit down with, and something the whole room will want a turn on afterwards. It lands well for birthdays, Christmas and office desks.

Safety warning: Contains small parts — choking hazard. Not suitable for children under 14. Keep loose parts away from infants and toddlers. All bricks are made from non-toxic ABS material intended for adult-oriented model construction.

Battery note: Requires 6 × AAA batteries. Batteries are not included — please supply your own and follow the battery maker’s safety guidance.

Care: Dust with a soft dry cloth and keep liquid away from the LED, speaker and trophy light entirely. Press the kick buttons rather than slamming them — the springs and the gearing underneath will last far longer for it. Keep the stadium out of prolonged direct sunlight so the black and green bricks hold their colour, and collect the balls off the floor before someone finds one barefoot.

Partly. The four spring launchers and the scoring dials are purely mechanical, so you can kick and keep score with no power at all. The goalkeeper, however, is motor-driven — without batteries he stands still, which turns a timing game into target practice. You’ll want the six AAAs in for the real thing.

About 21 inches wide by 13 inches deep, standing under 8 inches tall. It’s a large set — worth measuring your surface before ordering.

Each sits at a different position around the pitch, so each gives a different angle on goal. Some are far more forgiving than others once the keeper is moving, which is where the game gets interesting.

The console has two dials, so head-to-head is what it’s built for. With a bigger group, take turns and reset the dials between rounds.

Loose batteries can’t be sent by international air freight. Standard alkaline AAA from any supermarket will do.

Yes. The LED bricks, speaker and wiring come as separate parts and are fitted during the build. The printed manual marks each connection point step by step, so no prior experience is needed.

At 2,247 pieces it’s a substantial project — expect to spread it over more than one sitting. Much of that time goes into the working mechanisms rather than the outer stadium.

It’s one of the easiest sets to give, because the person opening it gets two things — a build to sit down with, and something the whole room will want a turn on afterwards. It lands well for birthdays, Christmas and office desks.
