A LEGO store

A LEGO Store is a store dedicated to selling LEGO. There are stores located throughout the United States, the United Kingdom and Germany.

Overview

The Pick-a-Brick Wall

LEGO stores sell LEGO sets and mini-figures alike. There is also a pick-a-brick wall where the buyer can choose which individual bricks he/she wants to buy.

Events

LEGO Stores usually have events going on, and the most recent is the LEGO Store Monthly Mini-Model Build where one day (the first Tuesday each month) you learn how to build a new mini LEGO set. There are also LEGO Club meetings several Saturdays each month. The meetings occur one hour prior to store opening and require advance reservation. For approximately $25 attendees receive a "grab bag" of LEGO bricks, a themed t-shirt and an hour of fun, theme-based building with fellow LEGO fans.

LEGO Brand Retail "Grand Opening Exclusive Commemorative Sets"

During the three day long grand opening celebration of a new LEGO Brand Retail Store location, an exclusive commemorative LEGO set is given out to the first 300 customers who spend US $35.00 or more in the store, usually on the second day of the event. This small model somehow represents the city in which the new location has opened and the LEGO model shop in Enfield, CT; USA is usually responsible for their design. However, local AFOLs (Adult Fans of LEGO) have been known to be contacted by the company when in design of a new location's commemorative set.
