Pencoin Posted December 22, 2008 Posted December 22, 2008 I thought it wasn't open to the public. I guess it is now? And I'll guess you will see what they do when you go! Quote
Front Posted December 22, 2008 Posted December 22, 2008 I doubt there is any production in UK. The site is listed as an Exporter/Importer, so it must be a regional office, taking care of sales and marketing in UK. Other buisness developement might take place there too. Quote
CopMike Posted December 22, 2008 Posted December 22, 2008 Ok, I think I need to step in here! I doubt there is any production in UK. The site is listed as an Exporter/Importer, so it must be a regional office, taking care of sales and marketing in UK. Other buisness developement might take place there too.Well I have to concur with you there about the UK, the thing is though that LEGO Enfield is in the US !TLG facts As for touring it ...... They have a modelbuilder shop where they do special stuff for exhibitions etc. Like the 12 large Indiana Jones statues for shops and special events. The designer of it is Model Designer Stephen Gerling. Then there is the S@H for North America, Brickmaster, set designers, economy etc etc. And Community Relations Coordinator, a.k.a Steve Witt. Here´s a picture of him in his office working? So to conclude, it´s not like doing the tour in Billund. But you can always call them and ask if you can drop by. Connecticut is nice. CopMike Quote
Ricecracker Posted December 22, 2008 Author Posted December 22, 2008 I thought it wasn't open to the public. I don't think it is, but my uncle met one of the Master Model Builders, and told him about me (forget which one), so he invited me on a tour while I'm in the U.S. (to visit my uncle) Ok, I think I need to step in here!Well I have to concur with you there about the UK, the thing is though that LEGO Enfield is in the US !

If I'm allowed to take pictures, I might get a few to post here on Eurobricks Quote
Dadster Posted December 22, 2008 Posted December 22, 2008 (edited) I'd like to go on a tour there or just check things out (that one could...). Fortunately, its not too far from me. I've met Steve and he's a decent enough fellow (he likes Green Lantern, etc comics, so that's a plus!). I wanna see a better pic of that poster he's got hanging on the wall...
