On September 6th, 2025, Nicolas Lopez opened a Bricks & Minifigs\u00ae store in Maryland. Since then, the team has grown and enjoyed getting involved with the community.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ _builder_version=”4.25.0″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb title=”Nicolas Lopez” image=”https:\/\/bricksandminifigs.com\/cockeysville-md\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/219\/2025\/11\/image2.jpeg” _builder_version=”4.25.0″ header_font=”|600|||||||” header_font_size=”25px” global_colors_info=”{}”]\n

Owner<\/h2>\n

Nic’s been obsessed with Lego since he could stack bricks. He’s all about DC and Star Wars (though DC is a newer love), has a soft spot for modular builds, and will happily tell you why the new Death Star is an absolute crime against Lego. If you need an opinion, he’s got one.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb title=”Wyatt Abramson” image=”https:\/\/bricksandminifigs.com\/cockeysville-md\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/219\/2025\/11\/image6.jpeg” _builder_version=”4.25.0″ header_font=”|600|||||||” header_font_size=”25px” global_colors_info=”{}”]\n

Mr. Make It Happen<\/h2>\n

Wyatt’s the superhero guy – DC especially, though Marvel gets some love too. He started with Star Wars but now he’s all about sets with cool colors and fun builds (just don’t ask him about Technic). Ironically, he’s also the tech guy around here, so if something breaks, he’s your man.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb title=”Thomas Vaccaro” image=”https:\/\/bricksandminifigs.com\/cockeysville-md\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/219\/2025\/11\/image7.jpeg” _builder_version=”4.25.0″ header_font=”|600|||||||” header_font_size=”25px” global_colors_info=”{}”]\n

Tactical Support<\/h2>\n

Thomas is our handyman and the guy you go to for custom builds and reassemblies. He’s got a killer Star Wars collection, a goofy sense of humor, and the kind of brain that figures out complicated builds like it’s nothing. He’s also the mastermind behind our bundles – if it’s a good deal, Thomas put it together.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb title=”Aaron Knight” image=”https:\/\/bricksandminifigs.com\/cockeysville-md\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/219\/2025\/11\/image0-3.jpeg” _builder_version=”4.25.0″ header_font=”|600|||||||” header_font_size=”25px” global_colors_info=”{}”]\n

Brickmaster<\/h2>\n

Aaron’s our Star Wars fanatic and MOC master – the guy can build anything from scratch. Need an obscure piece? He’ll find it in 30 seconds flat. He runs our social media, has an answer for everything, and somehow makes sorting through bins look effortless.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb title=”Aaron Matyas” image=”https:\/\/bricksandminifigs.com\/cockeysville-md\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/219\/2025\/11\/image1-3.jpeg” _builder_version=”4.25.0″ header_font=”|600|||||||” header_font_size=”25px” global_colors_info=”{}”]\n

Aaron<\/h2>\n

Aaron’s a pure Lego loyalist – he collects everything from minifigs to massive sets because he just loves the brand itself. Icons and Ideas are his favorites, but honestly, he’ll build anything you put in front of him. He’s been hooked since day one and never looked back.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb title=”Carson Young” image=”https:\/\/bricksandminifigs.com\/cockeysville-md\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/219\/2025\/11\/image0-5.jpeg” _builder_version=”4.25.0″ header_font=”|600|||||||” header_font_size=”25px” custom_padding=”0px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}”]\n

Jack of all Trades<\/h2>\n

Carson helps out with our social media and brings serious theatre kid energy to the store. He’s into Harry Potter, Ninjago, and Star Wars, and he’s probably the most outgoing person you’ll meet. Will absolutely talk your ear off about Lego – and he’ll make it entertaining.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
