Seems like you're missing the part where they have to pay someone (or more accurately, entire teams of people) a lot of money to actually come up with the set idea and instructions.
Boiling LEGO down to just "a bunch of formed plastic" is criminal.
- ysamjo 5y agoPlease read the article before you write a comment. I explicitly said in it that LEGO is successful because of the combination of instructions and plastic. I further argue that you could unlock value by unbundle the two. If you have salary data on LEGO designers please share. In the meantime I assume a good model designer would make more in the described platform model. (Comparable to a newspaper journalist going solo with Substack.)
