Lego is, indisputably, the greatest toy ever created. Those multi-coloured bricks facilitate creativity, ingenuity, and a heightened pain tolerance due their constant and pointy presence underfoot. It’s for these reasons and more that Lego is adored by both young and old – but, oh boy, do the old have something to say about Melbourne’s brand new Legoland Discovery Centre.
Adult fans of Lego (AFOL) are salty that the new Chadstone attraction doesn’t admit grown-ups without child supervision, and some are claiming it borders on genuine discrimination.
The Centre responded to a negative Facebook review by saying “there is only age restricions [sic] on who can visit the attration [sic] as we are an indoor playground for children.” Speaking to The Age, a spokesperson added the facilities are “not suitable or designed for adults.”
“Please be reassured we are not all like this. Most of us ‘get it’.”
