LEGO: ‘Bricks and Minifigs’ Hits 300 Stores – Join In The Celebration
The company that gives LEGO bricks a second life is celebrating its over 300 locations. Here’s how you can get in on the fun!
In case you’re not familiar, Bricks & Minifigs is the place to go when you need that odd piece for older sets, are planning your next MOC, or want to grab a bunch of bricks for open play. They carry bulk bricks you can hunt through to get just what you need, and unopened sets that can be hard to find. Plus individual minifigs for collectors.
Every location is going to have slightly different stock, and you can expect to find a new treasure every time you visit – at a price point that’s affordable.
You can also easily turn that random tub of bricks you have lying around into a new set or project with their resale and trade program. It’s easy to do…
Find Your Community
Bricks & Minifigs is more than just a store; it’s a place to find other builders and join a new community. The company is built on sharing the joy of creating with LEGO, from store employees up to the company boardroom.
“We came to Bricks & Minifigs as customers and fans before we were ever a part of the executive team. Our journey serves as a reminder that every store represents someone’s excitement and passion for LEGO, and a desire to pour that energy into their community.”
– Matt McNeff, COO of Bricks & Minifigs
Find the closest store here. Make sure you set aside a couple of hours to dig through the bins and talk to other fans about what they’re building. Stores also host MOC design contests, building events, birthday parties, and more. My local store is hosting a trivia night for International LEGO Day with fun prizes this week. There’s always something going on.
300 and Counting
The company is expanding rapidly. They started with just 35 stores in 2018 and hit a major milestone last year with more than 300 stores in operation in the US and Canada. The company is expanding rapidly, and there are plans to go global – next up is Australia.
If there’s not a Bricks & Minifigs location near you, just wait a bit or open your own and share your love of LEGO!
