Why are Lego so expensive?
I went to buy my nephew one and it was a car and a figure for 20€! And this thing goes for 300€, really?
And people wonder why kids don't play with Lego as much as in the past...

That looks really amazing but man, 300 bucks for pieces of plastic you stick together. Yeesh. Seems pretty steep. I would just buy the last Playstation for that amount of money for perspective on the price. I really love LEGOS but ouch.

It's cool how they improved the mini figures from when they first started the LEGO sets. So much detail now :D
