Check out all the cool stuff you can do at the certified Lego store in Shangri-La Plaza
Head on up to the fifth floor of Shangri-La's East Wing. There's no way you can miss the bright yellow and red storefront, especially not with all the cool Lego sets displayed. One step in and you'll be greeted by all the Legos you could possibly imagine. Plus, we can't skip over all the fun bits you can, quite literally, dip your hands into.
Our fave interactive section has to be the "Build a Mini-Figure" one, also aptly dubbed BAM. As in the name, you can create three of your own Lego mini-mes and take them home for just P599. Under the watchful eye of the unicorn, you can choose the heads, legs, torso, and yup, accessories, to make small Lego versions of yourself or loved ones. Now, that's a customized gift. You can even make a completely out-of-this-world figurine if that's more your, or your giftee's, style.
You'll spot a massive glass globe to your right upon entering. If you've got a fascination with all things miniature, the magnifying glass on this display will let you get up close and personal with whichever set is currently on.
There's also a wall display and a table chock full of bricks that you can play with. Feel free to make your own designs.
What's great about this Lego store is you've got all the themed sets you could possibly imagine. Apart from the usual, you can get miniatures from your fandoms to build: from Star Wars to DC to Harry Potter, heck, even Disney princesses. We even spotted cars.
