Medieval LEGO can be found in Barnes & Nobles, Books-A-Million, and on Amazon.com.

The first event was held in Raleigh, North Carolina in 2014 and there has since been over 40 BrickUniverse conventions organized across the United States since. BrickUniverse's mission is to inspire creativity and learning through LEGO bricks. It is a massive immersive event attended by thousands of families Since the event's inception, Greyson has organized and managed the day-to-day operations for every BrickUniverse event across the country. The mission is clear: to change the world one brick at a time.
