We had a birthday party here and it was SO AWESOME! The kids got to build race cars, then an employee hosted and directed the kids through races. Jared was awesome with the kids and did a great job making it fun for each of them. Then, everybody got their own mini figs to take home! Everyone was so kind and they were prepared for things people commonly forget (which saved us when we didn’t have a knife for the cake).
I can’t recommend this place enough 🎉

Definitely worth a visit! While visiting family from out of town, my kids and I decided to stop in as we LOVE all things Lego and we were not disappointed. There are lots of used and new sets to choose from, but not too many that it’s overwhelming. We loved perusing all of the glass cases full of different Minifigs and lots of miscellaneous animals and accessories. Very reasonably priced and the owner, Jordan, was incredibly kind and patient with my young boys bouncing back and forth choosing so many random things. I was so glad to support this great business while in town. I highly recommend stopping in and checking it out

Such a fun place to shop for bricks and hard to find sets! The folks here are so lovey and helpful. We had our daughter’s 10th birthday party here and the whole experience was great—everything was very straightforward, and our party staffer, Jared, did such an amazing job running the show, helping the kids make and race cars, taking care of tablecloths/plates/napkins and doling out pizza/drinks/cupcakes, and helping build mini-figures. The girls all thought he was hysterical, and he was great at keeping them in line while also facilitating lots of fun. 10/10, absolutely recommend and would do a party here again!

How to Sell or Trade Your LEGO®

Simple 3-step process to turn your LEGO® into cash or store credit.

Step 1: Bring In Store

Bring in your LEGO® sets, minifigs, or bulk bricks to our Des Moines location. For the best experience, include any boxes/instructions you have and keep sets grouped together if possible. Since every collection is different, we evaluate everything in person.

U

Step 2: Evaluate & Make Offer

Our staff will inspect your items in-store so we can give you a fair and accurate quote. We look at things like set completeness, condition, parts/accessories, and overall demand. Because these details can change value, we need to see and review the items first before we can provide a proper offer.

Step 3: Get Paid Or Trade

Once we’ve finished the evaluation, you can choose the option that works best for you: cash or store credit/trade. If you trade, you can put your value toward sets, minifigs, or bulk bricks in-store right away.

How Birthday Parties Work

A simple 3-step party experience – build, race, celebrate, and we’ll handle the rest.

Step 1: Reserve Your Date

Book our 90-minute LEGO® themed party for up to 10 participating children (ages 5+). Pricing is $150 Mon–Fri and $175 Sat–Sun. Please book at least 7 days in advance. The party room holds a maximum of 15 total people, including adults. Parties must be prepaid, and there is a $50 non-refundable cancellation fee.

Step 2: Build, Race & Party Time

Your party starts with 45 minutes of race car building and racing on our derby track. Then you’ll have 20–30 minutes for food and presents (customer supplied). To keep things safe and easy, drinks must be boxed, pouched, or bottled (no open cups).

Step 3: Minifigure Fun + Wrap-Up

We finish with a 10–15 minute minifigure building activity—each child builds one minifigure, and the birthday child builds two. Table decorations like balloons and tablecloths are welcome, but please no wall-hanging decorations.
