Building the new LinkedIn Logo in LEGO bricks for the Mountain View lobby required me to buy a huge number of specific bricks in the same color.  This is useful because you can order any brick in production.  Limitations are that you cannot order bricks that are out of production, and fulfillment times are often 10-15 business days for large orders.2) Fax an order to LEGO.  The LinkedIn logo required over 5,000 blue 2x8 bricks as the primary component of the construction.  For large, detailed orders you can call the LEGO store at 1-800-835-4386, and they will give you a fax number for the order.  Unfortunately, fulfillment times here depend on brick type - I ended up waiting 6-7 weeks for some components of the order.  Also, LEGO seems to have no concept of shipping notifications or tracking for orders placed this way.3) Local LEGO stores "Pick a Brick". I used both the Valley Fair and Hillsborough stores to acquire bricks at times.  You can buy bricks three ways: a small cup for $7.99, a large cup for $14.99, and an entire box for $70. 




As you can imagine, you are somewhat limited by your ability (or patience) in terms of cramming different brick types into containers.  Most clerks will tell you that you can't buy bricks by the box - they are mistaken.  Ask to talk to a manager, and they will sell you a box, but only if they have more than one in the back.  They are not allowed to sell "the last box."The biggest limitation of this approach is that not only do stores not stock all brick types or colors, they also have no ability to "special order" Pick-a-Brick bricks.  They get fulfillment once a week, and have no control over which bricks they receive.  The trick is to call ahead, and be flexible with your design to adapt to the bricks they do have.4) Bricklink.  For example, getting 20-30 small 1x2 tiles to finish off the base edges of the lettering.  Bricklink is relatively slow on fulfillment, and it's common to get bricks that are discolored by age or cleaning.  This means they may not match other orders of a similar brick. 




It's also very hard to get large orders of many brick types & colors.Overall, for the LinkedIn in LEGO project I purchased approximately 12,000+ bricks.  8,000 I was able to get over 7-8 weeks from a Fax order to LEGO.  /) and click on "Buy Lego." BrickLink is a kind of Craigslist for Lego bricks -- you can get pretty much any kind ever made, in any color it was made in./PAB/ Prices aren't great but they are actually roughly about the same as what you would pay in a boxed set.Welcome to the Bricks & Minifigs’ Fitchburg, Wisconsin store.
