LEGO store Orlando

So the LIC Orlando reopened and has new features. Let's take a look at the pros and cons:

Pics taken by Mike H used for reference and I have the links.


Pros:
The area. One congested, tight space has been expanded into a wider open spot. This means more leeway.

The Pick-A-Brick is now where the City sets used to be which means that for me it's an easier walk-in and shop. Usually I enter from Parking lots 2 and 1 which lead to the entrance in this shot.

The Pick-A-Brick Wall also has special bricks: Dark tan 2x2 tiles, dark blue double convex slopes, and dark red 2x4 bricks. I think this may be a fixture in Orlando LIC, especially as in 2009 they had a similar selection for a brief time in September. Glad they kept the curve design.

Disney Characters are now on display outside which make for a grand showcase of rare colors.

Cons:

The PAB wall was contracted to 36 x 6 (216 bins). This however, is not believed at all to harm the selection, due to the infamous filler and empty bin spaces that keep lingering.

Disney characters that are now on display outside are not as eccentric as the 4507 Dinosaur and the Titan XP; they had more appeal. Though, the dragon is pretty cool.
