Bricks & Minifigs Madison

I finally made my way into Bricks & Minifigs Madison. This store did not disappoint. My inner geek had tons of fun wandering around the store and taking in the sights. I made a small purchase for my sweetheart and he loved it! I will definitely be back for more.

I am a freeform Lego fan on top of always being on the look-​out for new, fun doodads to brighten up my office at work and so when I heard there was a Lego store opening up I popped in for their grand opening weekend to check them out.
I did not realize that there were so many different miniatures that Lego released. It was great — I didn’t get a ton of things for the office but I was able to find a variety of miniatures (apparently called «Minifigs», hence the name in their store title) that fit the likes of various friends and family. Stocking stuffer city!
Now I’m pretty sure Mrs. T and I will be the King and Queen of Stocking Town come Christmas.
The customized «Build your own Minifig» also lets you buy a figurine and customize it. So you could, say, buy Superman and put your own face on it.
While I am not (as of yet) sporting any children they also host parties (both lego parties and painting parties, I think?) which 10 year old me wishes I had a time machine for.
The inventory seems to change a lot because they buy used sets so the other nifty thing is that they will always have something new.
For the free form lego folks like myself they also sell parts by the bucket. Considering Lego classic will run you a good $ 45 for a «Classic» set assortment– their price being much less than that is pretty awesome. I opted not to just have a pile of legos in my office but as I have an unused table… who knows how long I can resist?
I know that if (when) I give in, though, it’ll be these guys I turn to in order to fill said table.

This store is absolutely awesome. This store concept is brilliant; we are lucky to have one in Madison! The cases are stocked with unique Minifigs. If you (or your kids…) like the animals and oddities that typically only come in larger sets, this is the place for you. Additionally, the build-​your-​own Minifigs section is super fun. You might even find the right pieces to replicate your co-​workers… :) I second the staff compliment; Dan et al. are as good as it gets.

Just shopped here on grand opening day. It’s a great store, loaded with enough Lego to fill anyone’s imagination. An awesome assortment of Minifigs, too, including elusive cheese heads and Bucky Badger! Glad I don’t have to drive to Milwaukee or Chicago anymore to get my Lego fix!!! Dan and the crew treat customers right.
We’ve even arranged to have my son’s (and my) birthday party here next weekend!
