Product Information

Interactive Storytelling Zone: Guests can celebrate the LEGO Group’s 90th Anniversary and explore 90 years of play in an interactive walkthrough experience which features products from the LEGO vault and fun for kids. When the Leicester Square brand store opened in 2016 it was the biggest in the world, and it's set to regain that crown once more. Here's a press release about what's planned: I'm going to be honest, that store is the definition of hell. You always have to queue, the staff are "super-friendly" with a KGB grilling of who you're buying the set for, where you've been, where you're going etc. Children running around, tourists not interested in buying anything, extremely busy etc.The Leicester Square LEGO store has been the subject of extensive promotion since it opened in 2016 and much of the associated advertising has been focused upon Lester. This minifigure embodies the United Kingdom and received a great deal of attention in advance of the store opening. Many fans were therefore disappointed to discover that just 275 copies of the figure had been produced for the occasion. Lester is wisely equipped with an umbrella in readiness for the sudden rain showers which are a notorious feature of British weather. This element has only appeared in three previous sets and looks splendid, with impressive moulded detail throughout the folded canopy as well as a handle for the minifigure to grip. LEGO fans formed queues hours before the official opening, eager to see the store’s new features. To mark the official opening moment, fans were excited to see LEGO icon Lester arriving on a London bus. The store is marking the occasion with a four-day event and fans from across the UK are invited to come along and join the celebrations. This follows an official preview event which took place last night, attended by celebrities including athlete Greg Rutherford, performer Kimberly Walsh and model Ellie Goldstein, amongst others along with their families. The relatively small numbers of these minifigures that LEGO is producing (compared to a CMF for example) means they won't benefit as much from economies of scale, so their unit costs will be higher. That additional cost gets past on to consumers. Also, the Leicester Square store sees large numbers of tourists who will be attracted to this minifigure as a souvenir. People are often less careful about/aware of prices when they are on holiday especially when in a foreign currency environment which would be true for visitors from outside the UK. LEGO can therefore get away with a higher price. The LEGO Group, one of the world's leading manufacturers of play materials, has announced that it will be unveiling its new UK flagship store in Leicester Square, London on November 17, 2016.

Build a Minifigure Tower: LEGO lovers can mix and match from a wide selection of bottoms, tops, heads, hairpieces and accessories to customise minifigures. Personalisation Studio: This element invites visitors to make a memento of their visit. In it, they can reimagine themselves in LEGO form, either as a portrait from the Mosaic Maker or an iconic Minifigure from the LEGO Minifigure Factory. I don't think any other LEGO Store has a mascot, Liecester Square has Lester the figure with merch such as shirts, figure and other stuff that only tourists would really buy.

Overall

Personalisation Studio: Visitors can reimagine themselves in LEGO form, either as a portrait from the Mosaic Maker or an iconic Minifigure from the LEGO Minifigure Factory. Likes here are not much of a measure of anything. The sampling method, sample size, response rate and response number (8 at the time of writing) are likely too small to be representative or statistically significant. Besides, we don't know what people were liking: were they liking your suggestion that the minifigure could be Jeeves, Wooster, both Jeeves and Wooster, fleshy, or fleshy Jeeves and Wooster?

Also exclusive to the Leicester Square store is the new LEGO mascot, Lester, who is already in full public view on the store’s construction façade. Lester is the quintessential English gentleman – a tea-drinking LEGO® Minifigure who is an expert on all things pertaining to the capital city and all LEGO matters. The new landmark store will be the biggest LEGO® Brand Retail Store in the world, the 37th LEGO store in Europe and cover a vast 914 sqm total area over two floors. The revamped store will be the first in the UK to debut the new ‘Retailtainment’ concept that blends physical and digital immersive play experiences in-storeLondon, 10th August, 2022: Today, after four months of extensive refurbishment, the LEGO Group reopened the doors to the LEGO® Store in Leicester Square - now officially, the biggest LEGO store in the world - and it’s like no other! LEGO fans in London and the UK are in for a treat this year as the LEGO Group is today announcing it will be overhauling its Leicester Square store to make it the brand’s largest in the world. The overhaul planned for this year will see it reclaim this crown. What’s more, it’ll also be the first store in the UK to feature the LEGO Group’s new ‘Retailtainment’ concept. We are investing in upgrading LEGO stores around to the world to give visitors really fun, unique and memorable brand experiences. The refurbishment and expansion of our flagship London store will make it a must-visit destination for fans, young and old, living or travelling to London.” There will also be hands-on LEGO experiences, unique to the Leicester Square store (and not available anywhere else) to inspire play and creativity in fans of all ages. It's very expensive to visit if you live outside of the London Underground system. Train or drive to London ... either way, its a slow journey that will cost a small fortune right now."
