Nothing really beats the LEGO store at Rockefeller Center. Here's the location on Google Maps: The LEGO Store, 5th Avenue, New York, NY. I don't really care about LEGOs past nifty things like this:... but I had to go in to see what's in this store:If you look up, you see a gigantic LEGO dragon stretching from area to area.They have a ton of drawers for all your specific LEGO needs:If you want a kit, you certainly can rest assured it will be there:If it's too cold to go out and watch the ice skating in Rockefeller Center's rink, you can always see the LEGO version:Iconic local sculptures are replicated in lego-form, like the Rockefeller Center's Prometheus:... or Atlas:Or a little Statue of Liberty:And here's a cute Central Park horse:Anyway, not my thing, but it's probably the NYC LEGO HQ :)I'd say the LEGO store at Rockefeller Center:620 Fifth Avenue @ 50th StreetNew York NY 10020Phone: (212) 245-5973There are also a couple of Toys R Us (TRU) locations in NYC, although they probably won't have the full compliment of products (they also tend to mark up their prices above MSRP
, unlike the LEGO brand retail stores which sell at MSRP).The LEGO store will also have a Pick-A-Brick wall (not usually seen in other venues, but the Times Square TRU is a notable exception), which will let you select your own custom pieces, as well as "build-your-own-minifigs" and (usually) a few other LEGO activities for kids. When I walked down 23rd Street, I was amazed and delighted by looking at the variety of characters made by Legos. Because that made my day, I took several photos looking into the store from the outside. I absolutely loved this store. If you go to NYC you must stop in Rockefeller Center and the Lego Store is right there, so you cannot miss it. My husband and I bought the Beatles Yellow Submarine Lego. It has amazing stuff on Star Wars as well. Denmark 5th January 2016 RE: Visit to Lego Store, Rockefeller Centre, New York I feel I must contact you directly to make you aware of the most fantastic service my husband and I received at your LEGO store during a recent visit to New York.
It is a retail shop for Lego products. Perfectly located at the Rockefeller center. The shop itself is beautiful, organized and clean. Wonderful displays of Lego designs and buildings. The staff are friendly and helpful. Not too much choices when it comes to articles to purchase but you will find something to buy at the end. This store is a popular tourist spot (it's in Rock Center, duh!), and has an amazing staff an lots of cool displays. Of course, the prices are higher here because of Manhattan rents. If you're a local and just wanna buy LEGOs, head to the Queens mall location for the cheaper prices. Visited during the busy period and had another look around when it was quiet, great set of displays and made my partner want to buy everything in the store. All the legos seemed to be the same price as the ones you buy in store, maybe a bit more or less with a few sets, and I liked how you... I've read some of the reviews expressing sadness that this is just a Lego store, of course, its not Legoland, its a retail premises, but that doesn't mean you can't have fun!
There are a few local treats, like the Statue of Liberty (although the fridge magnet is better than the build your own), there are plenty of boxsets from... The Lego Store was very crowded both times we visited. Other than a small NYC lego building display, this store was very much like all of the other Lego Stores we have visited. This is just a store that sells legos. I was expecting more, a place where kids could interact but there was nothing. Just boxes of legos and displays that kids cannot touch. Think they are trying to get gear it more towards collectors rather than children. We have nothing this side that can compare ..... the master builders have been so busy that the place took my breath away !!!! I really loved the openness and the fact I could buy the blocks I neededThe 15 Best Toy and Game Stores in New York CityCreated by Foursquare Lists The LEGO StoreSuper friendly staff.
