In our effort to bring a little slice of LEGO heaven all corners of the
world, we have 6 new LEGO stores coming soon!
Bellevue, WA
Santa Clara, CA
San Mateo, CA
Bridgewater, NJ
McLean, VA
Rockaway, NJ
(For more details, keep an eye on the LEGO
Stores Web site. We’ll soon be updating with more info.
Hopefully this will make some folks (I know the San Franciscans for sure!)
happy.
And yes, I know there are still a great many cities that don’t have a LEGO
store close by, and we’re working on that. We can only do so much at a time!

This isn’t a complaint, more LEGO stores are always better, but...
Why are you opening 2 in the Bay Area, 2 in New Jersey (for a total of 3) and
1 more in Virginia (for a total of 2)? I can think of many other places in
the US that need one more. For example: The Carolinas (Charlotte, Raleigh,
or Columbia), Texas (definately needs more than 1), and Pheonix.

In a way, I think TLC is following Apple Computer’s lead on placing brand
stores. Both company’s are selling a premium (priced) product, where
conventional retailers have (generally speaking) not been able to market the
product fairly. Apple has pulled way back from offering product at ‘big box’
retailers (the singular exception being the iPod at Target). Both companies do
big business via direct (catalog/internet) sales. The retail market place is
changing even as we watch.
