If in Murcia, this can be yours for the low price of $349.99! Though, anyone who wants this will have to get it directly from a Lego Store or the Lego Shop online.

 

And yes, other countries will get this.

The price point on lego sets now is just insane to me. I remember getting tons of them as a kid, and I'm reasonably certain I wouldn't have gotten nearly as many as I did if they were expensive as they are now. Like, this is high even by modern lego standards, but it still scares how much they are asking.

Not as bad as you think.

 

There's still many good sets that are around $20-$30 dollars, which is still pretty reasonable, based on what you get. If you're only going after the $100+ sets, then yes.

 

However, there is one set in the Summer 2016 price that is genuinely very overpriced for what you get:

It's a cool set, and it's got an alternate build. So, is it $50? $60? Nope. Try $90. This is not a $90 dollar set at all.

Fair on not all lego sets being super expensive. Just the ones I think look cool/would want tend to be. Which shouldn't surprise me since they tend to be the more complicated ones.

 

And wow, that at $30 feels like too much.

I'd prefer if that alternate build wasn't there and it was marked at $40 or $50. The alternate build might have been some BS justification.
