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 🎉

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.
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.
Come play with us!
Our selection of retired, pre-built and new sets is ever changing! Stop in to see our latest offerings!
Anniversary celebration to come! We are coming up on our 1st anniversary and cannot wait to celebrate! Mark your calendar for March 29!
