Imagine walking into Downtown Disney, eager to catch a glimpse of your favorite LEGO characters, only to find that Woody and Buzz have vanished from their iconic rocket display. Yes, you read that right—they’re gone! But here’s where it gets even more intriguing: despite the recent refurbishments and the unveiling of a stunning reimagined model of Prince Phillip battling Maleficent, construction walls still shroud parts of the LEGO Store. What’s hiding behind them? Could it be a new display in the works? Let’s dive in.
During our recent visit, we noticed that the beloved Toy Story duo, Woody and Buzz, were notably absent from their usual spot on the rocket. While the rest of the construction area remains concealed, a silver structure peeking out suggests something exciting might be on the horizon. Meanwhile, the store’s outdoor area has been transformed with a new interactive space alongside the restored Prince Phillip and Maleficent model, adding a fresh layer of magic to the experience.
But here’s the part most people miss: The Downtown Disney LEGO Store isn’t just about shopping for sets or watching demonstrations—it’s also home to the West Coast’s only Minifigure Factory. Yes, you can create your very own custom LEGO Minifigure here! Located right next to the Monorail station, this store is a treasure trove for LEGO enthusiasts, offering everything from personalized photo mosaics to exclusive sets. And if you’re wondering about the landscaping scrim spotted near Salt & Straw, it’s all part of the ongoing enhancements to the area.
Now, here’s the controversial question: With so many updates and hidden surprises, is the LEGO Store becoming Downtown Disney’s best-kept secret—or is it just a teaser for even bigger changes to come? What do you think? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
