The first-ever LEGO shop is opening in Ireland this week, and I am super excited. I’m expecting it to draw a massive crowd on the first few days, mostly existing LEGO fans like myself and
. Part of said crowd though will undoubtedly be the curious newbies.
Just the other night I went on a date with a lovely lady who knew nothing about LEGO, which made me realise, there is a large enough group of people for whom the Danish toymaker doesn’t mean much or anything at all, yet with a shop on Dublin’s most famous shopping street (Grafton Street), many will feel compelled to walk in and stare at boxes of LEGO. Seeing at least two major building systems — System and Technic — won’t have a clue which one to experiment with, so in this article I’m going to answer some questions I know people might be asking themselves.
