This store is Lego on Crack! Legos everywhere, what ever you are looking for. They even have loose Legos you can buy in bulk. You just fill up a tub and they charge you a flat rate. Just be ready to spend a lot of money. Legos aren’t cheap.

I had a big project and online shopping was not working for me. I called the Lego store and Michael was a great help. I went in and the staff including the Manger was awesome. I had a few odd requests and they went over and above to accommodate me as best they could with the stock they had. Really appreciated their help!

The staff at this store are always super helpful, very friendly and very knowledgable! Their stock is generally good, though they tend to sell out of limited release sets very quickly! If there’s a set you’d like(and you call in to ask), they will hold it for you until you can get there. There have been several occasions when the store has been out of stock and the associates have offered me free shipping coupon codes for the shopping site. This store also has 3-D boxed set rendering inside the stores which my kids always enjoy experimenting with!

My son is a huge Lego fan and although I know that my husband is too, he pretends that he really only goes there to help our son. Uh-huh. Pretty much every birthday and holiday, my son wants some sort of new building set depending on what he’s into at the time. Our most recent visit was for him to spend a gift card he just received for Christmas. The employees at this place are helpful and available, but we haven’t really needed them since my kid pretty much always knows what he’s looking for. This place is located inside of Washington Square Mall and there have been several times that we have gone to the mall just to visit the Lego store. On rare occasions that I have to actually go to the mall, my husband and son head over to wait for me and get some Legos. Now, watch out, this place is small. SMALL. When it’s crowded, it’s hard to walk around without hitting some running kid with your big purse(oh wait, is that just me?). I’m a fan because my son is, I just wish they moved to a bigger location in the mall.

I popped in to buy my nephew a gift for Easter, and I found a cute little bunny for $ 10. The staff was helpful. They sell the basic Legos in bulk by the scoop. If you have a Lego fan in your life this is the perfect place to pick up a gift.

Went in to get a collector’s set for my husband. They didn’t have it in stock but the guy offered to place the order for me, that was nice. The whole process took less than ten minutes. I was in and out of the mall in like 15 min(a new personal record for Washington Sq.!)

I really like this store and so does my Grandson. He is 3 ½ years old. They have every Lego set imaginable. Many that you can’t find in any other store. Love taking him in here and seeing the look on his face. He gets so excited. I can’t wait to take my granddaughter in here. She is 1 ½ years old so she may not appreciate it as much yet, but she will. They have a Lego club that you can join and you earn points etc. You usually get a small free Lego set when you purchase something if you are a Lego club member. We thought it was worth joining the club, which is free, since I am sure we will be buying Legos for many years to come. The staff are friendly and helpful and talk with the kids. I have been in here a few times and it hasn’t been crowded any time that I have been in here. Of course I have not went in on a weekend. I mean, if you go to a mall on a weekend you know that is a sure recipe for chaos and madness. I am not a fan of malls. I only go when absolutely necessary. There are just some things you can only find there. If you have kids that like Legos it’s worth taking them here just to see how excited they get.

This place is entirely too small. That’s my number one beef. Seriously. With the sheer number of people, it’s difficult to get in and more difficult to maneuver the store. It’s panic attack worthy on weekends. GOODGOD! Ok– the good. Lines are always quick to check out. They have little calendars with events. They have upcoming non-lego sponsored stuff that is lego related. They have a free build on the first Tuesday(I think) of every month. You just have to be willing to stand in line. FORHOURS. The line builds up well in advance and snakes around the area in front of the store. It’s a bit out of control. The employees are often as big of lego nerds as we are, able to point out sets no longer available and how they differ from what they currently carry and how much you can expect to find it on ebay for. They are often very helpful. Also, they have a wall of build your own set pieces! You buy by the container and they will often even show you how to pack the most in to them! Pretty spendy, but when you have a specific project in mind or need replacement pieces, it’s great. The bad– Have I mentioned the crowds? Nothing they can do about it, but it’s impossible to get to stuff you want often because of the hoards of un-supervised children. Yep, I have kids, they come with me… But I don’t let them run loose like some. Also, lots of oblivious parents with strollers just camped out in the very small walkways. I really wish they would ban strollers in there. Set up stroller parking outside, that would free up a lot of room! And preserve my sanity a bit. Nothing the staff can do about it, but it’s a reality of the store. So go on a week day. And plan to fend off other people’s kids.

I love going to the Lego Store with my kids because I know how happy it makes them! Max is 9 and could spend hours in there. He loves to build his own characters and I love the creativity. Emmy is 5 and she loves the little girl lego’s called friends. They always have plenty of sets in stock and if they don’t have what your looking for they will order it online with free shipping to be sent to your house. Their prices are cheaper than Toys R Us and they carry exclusive magnets, key chains, and sets!

I love this store! What a play ground for young and old! I do find that the staff isn’t always interested in helping, but rather seems to want to stay behind the counter and talk amongst themselves. Besides that, they always seem to have several of each item in stock. If you cannot find it in the store they will either order it for you or you can pay the extra shipping yourself and have it sent to your house. I love the Lego VIP points. Every little bit off helps, especially when I have purchased all but the newest of the architect series(IE: white house, falling waterfall, space needle, etc) which go for anywhere from $ 30= $ 250 each. And my current passion for the modular collection(the pet store, fire house, city hall and more) all go for $ 150 + each. The Lego VIP points add up when you think each $ is 1 point. And the staff at this store is always ready to let you know when the special extra VIP point days are.

My oldest is obsessed with Lego Star Wars. And since this is the only official Lego store in Oregon, it has become a regular stop whenever we are at Washington Square. And I must say, as childhood phases go, this one is… expensive. We get most of our Lego sets from our local Freddie’s or Target when they are on sale. But, this is the place to go for discontinued and collector’s items. They have pretty much everything and the store is cute. He just got a X-wing set we haven’t found anywhere else for his birthday, and you should have seen his face light up. They also have a pretty good return policy. If you don’t have a receipt, they will give you in store credit towards merchandise purchased that day. You can also get the Lego Club Card(for free) and collect stamps which are redeemed for gift cards. Of course, every time we visit the store he is drawn by the invisible tractor beam to the $ 500 Millennium Falcon. Sorry baby, not happening!
