Lego Delight at In’s Point Mall, Hong Kong
B and I actually happened upon Lego paradise at In's Point Mall in Hong Kong by
accident… We headed to the mall specifically to buy Daddy a souvenir at the
Bruce Lee Club store on the second floor (http://www.bruceleeclub.com/)
and found ourselves surrounded by the most amazing selection of Lego sets and
figurines.

Unfortunately our visit was in the early afternoon and only
a handful of shops were open. But even
with only a limited number of stores, the selection was amazing. We found plenty of mini-figures
and harder-to-find sets - at very reasonable prices, and many of the
newer, easy-to-find sets were less expensive than sets we priced out at Toys R Us at Harbour City.
In addition to Lego, the shops were also full of new and vintage
superhero action figures and other collectibles.
In’s Point Mall is located at 530-538 Nathan Road in Mong Kok. If using the MTR, go to Yau Ma Tei Station
and take exit A2. Take the escalator or
elevator up to the 1st and 2nd floors (if using a
stroller, be aware the elevators are quite compact!). The shops we visited accepted cash only. From a cursory scan of shop hours, the ideal
time to visit is after 4 pm on weekends or after 6 pm on weekdays when most of the
shops open. Many of the shops sold
similar sets/figures so it is a good idea to bring a pen and paper and do a bit
of price comparison between vendors. I
was so busy window shopping, I forgot to take pictures but this image from http://thebrickblogger.com/2012/05/lego-hong-kong/
gives a sense of the place.Friday, April 4, 2014
