LEGO to open store in Chandler Fashion Center
Associated Press - April 26, 2008 2:14 PM ET
CHANDLER, Ariz. (AP) - Danish toy-maker LEGO plans to open a store in Chandler
that will sell only the popular interlocking toys.
LEGO has just 20 stores in the U.S. and the store planned for the Chandler
Fashion Center will be the first in Arizona.
The store is expected to open this summer. It will sell hard-to-find products
for LEGO fans, host birthday parties and monthly building contests, and allow
customers to play with the toys in the store.
LEGO global operations manager Justin Tripp says the Phoenix-area has been high
on the company’s planned location list. He says the area has a built-in target
audience with many families and plenty of adult fans of LEGO toys.

Sorry - afraid that I’m firmly in my 4th and most likely permanent Dark Ages
(although I have been eyeing that 8 wheel construction crane...for my kid of
course “daddy, can I play with the crane now?” “just a minute”). I sold all of
my lego through BL a while back and me attending a meeting would probably be
depressing to all of you - lol!

Ross and I get in town late on the 28th and leave in the evening on Feb 3.
Do y’all ever get together on a Sunday?

To my knowledge, we haven’t ever gotten together, but it’s about time, and
you may be our catylist.
I don’t know Tucson well. Is there a decent restaurant co-located to a
Toys-R-Us (it’s always fun to do some social lego shopping)
Let’s start planning for the evening of the 28th.
John, how late is late? You guys are coming in by plane?

Whoa, sorry about that-- I didn’t catch this response until just now.
Okay, here’s our plan. We arrive into PHX late 11pm ish this Sat night. And we
have a room in Tucson Sun night. We could meet up Sunday afternoon or early eve
in PHX if that is better. Where is everyone from?

I unfortunately will be flying out of PHX on the 28th. I hope you
all are able to meet up.
