The LEGO Americana travelling road show was in town a few weeks back, and they had a contest in which posting a picture to Instagram (properly hashtagged) could win you a gift card. I submitted this:

I won.

Question is, what do I buy at the LEGO Store in that particular mall?

If I can use it online, would I be better off?

Can the LEGO Store special order something they do not have?

Should I wait until something even COOLER comes out in the future, providing the gift card does not expire soon?

Is the Lego answer not always F40?

Get the Porsche LMP1 car. I haven’t touched Lego’s in over a decade, but I’m tempted to get it myself.

Not when I like the Testarossa more... or maybe someday they’ll make a Smokey and the Bandit kit??

Several Pick-a-Brick cups. Those things really are a great bang for your buck. Just make sure to pack them as tightly as possible.

$50 should get you a nice 10-15 piece set.

Seriously, legos are expensive. I don’t know how my parents ever bought me those!
