Having little kids with LEGO sets can be a dangerous endeavor when you have to walk across the room in the dark. There is nothing quite like unexpectedly stepping on a Lego piece barefoot.  

Why LEGO Collecting Has Become So Popular

These days, LEGOS are a little more valuable to have pieces lying around. They have become much more creative and more expensive. Many collect and build hard-to-find, or discontinued Lego sets. For many Missoulians, it hasn’t been easy to find some of the bigger, more collectible sets.

That looks to change soon. There’s a new store that’s opening called Bricks & Minifigs (BAM), at 1525 South Russell. They will offer opportunities for fans of the building blocks to buy, sell, or trade sets. 

What Bricks & Minifigs Will Offer Missoula Fans 

Their website has a countdown to opening day on Saturday, March 28. Their social pages are giving away prizes for every milestone they reach with followers and interactions. They are also currently hiring employees.  

Rare and Retired LEGO Sets Available

The Bricks & Minifigs location will have a showroom featuring full new and gently used LEGO sets and bulk LEGO options. They will carry current, hard-to-find, and even some retired LEGO sets.  They will have a big selection of minifigs (miniature figures). They will also have an event room, which will be available for birthday or party rentals of all kinds.  

LEGO sets are impressive these days. My family got me a classic LEGO radio a few years ago. Not only was it fun to put together, but it was the perfect gift for a radio announcer.
