I don’t support Mould King copying Lego sets and MOCs. That’s bad and not ethical. But that’s how industry works. Mould King has original sets now and okayish brick quality. They will probably get more original sets and increase brick quality even more. Then there are Mega Blocks mentioned by others.
100€ brick set is expensive compared to average monthly salary of 2000€. That’s roughly average in Germany. And probably half week’s pay in FAANG in US.
- the_mitsuhiko 5y agoMould King (like basically all Lego ripoffs) might have some legitimate designs but most of it effectively exists because Lego is popular. They are exploiting the marketing efforts and designs of Lego (and the MOC community) for their own profit. I find this despicable and not worth supporting. About the cost: toys are expensive but compared to a lot of other things Lego doesn’t get old, is replayable and comes with a huge ecosystem. We rebuilt lots of sets thanks to the ability to get the manuals in the app. Lego sets gave us a lot more joy than many more expensive plastic toys that were only fun for limited time.
