About LEGO Brand Store Opening Set
A LEGO Brand Store Opening Set, also known as 'Grand Opening Exclusive Commemorative Sets' are typically given to a limited number of store customers during a multi-day grand opening event of a new LEGO brand retail store. During the second day of the event, for most stores, a limited number of sets, typically between 300 to 500 are given to customers who spend a minimum purchase of around $50. Each set is numbered and sets on the secondary market or pretty limited as most customers who are kids open their packs quickly.
2019 LEGO Sets
2019 marked 20 years of LEGO Star Wars with commemorative editions and retro-printed minifigures. LEGO acquired BrickLink, the leading secondary marketplace, deepening ties with the AFOL community. Hidden Side blended augmented reality with ghost-hunting builds, while pop-culture entries like Stranger Things and Overwatch reached new audiences. By this period, earlier in-house lines such as Nexo Knights and Elves had concluded.
