So $100 raw plastic cost then
- crooked-v 8y agoManufacturing cost for Lego pieces is relatively high, though, given the effort they put into keeping precise amounts of 'clutch power' for every brick.
- vlunkr 8y agoThis becomes clear when you use any of the cheaper alternatives.
- sequoia 8y agoYeah I tried it once, buying off-brand legos from Ebay. It's truly night and day in terms of quality.
- grepballsoffire 8y agoActually they're getting much better. I bought some off-brand Lego from aliexpress a couple of years ago, and apart from the lack of branding I can't tell the difference, even after two years of use.
- aiCeivi9 8y agoYeah, the reviews say offbrand tires are absolute crap but that is only element that has noticeable quality issues. Not so sure about electronic/pneumatic.
- zerr 8y agoNot true nowadays, e.g try COGO. I'd say, the grip is even stronger compared to Lego, even after long time use.
