Sad News For the Lego Club Magazine

Hellego! News has just surfaced that there will soon be a major change towards the Lego Club Magazine. If you're like me, over 13 and enjoy the Lego magazine, then you will be very disappointed.


Starting in September, all Lego Club members living in Germany, Austria and Switzerland that are older than 13 years old will no longer be able to receive the magazine. Then in November, this change will occur in all of Europe. Finally, at the start of 2015, this change will affect the rest of the world. This is because the Lego Club team wants to focus the content only for kids 12 years and younger.

To know which issue will be your last, Lego said that you will receive a notice with the magazine saying that it is your last one.

I think this is very disappointing because I really enjoy receiving the magazine. It's very useful to know about upcoming events, new sets and the comics are really fun. Also, I find 13 years old as an age limit to be young. They could have made it more around 16 or 18.

What do you think about this change? Does it affect you? Are you disappointed? Feel free to leave your thoughts in the comments.

Sherway Gardens Lego Store in Toronto

Hellego! This year, I took another visit to Toronto and I used the opportunity to go back the Lego store at the Sherway Gardens mall.

Like last time, it was a very fun experience. I got the opportunity to chat with an AFOL who worked there. Her name is Claire, also known as CleverLittleMinx on Flickr. She is also part of the ToroLUG so it was really fun getting to chat with her a bit. During this visit, I got two small Pick A Brick cups that I will show in the video. A lot of the creations and sets displayed were still the same as last year, but there has been some changes.

Check out the video I made from my visit!

Hellego! During my trip to New York city, I went to Times Square. What is one of the special stores in Times Square? Only the biggest Toys R Us store in the world! It was three different levels and contains a Ferris Wheel inside. What a great store!

New York City Lego Store at Rockefeller Center

Hellego! As said in my previous post, I went on a trip to New York City! There, I had the opportunity to visit the Rockefeller Lego store! It was obviously an awesome store. I mean, has there ever been an "un-awesome" Lego store? I decided to fill up a small Pick-A-Brick cup. They had a very nice selection of bricks!




Here is the footage of my visit:
