Bullshit. It’s expensive because they want to exploit whales.
I can buy chinese made lego sets that cost £15. An official set would be hundreds or thousands. It’s the same pieces.
- 2muchcoffeeman 4y agoAre there any knock off bricks with the same fit tolerances? I haven't seen any. Although you might ask, should be accept a slightly lower tolerance to drive down the cost?
- detaro 4y agoA bunch of manufacturers are nowadays equal to Lego quality (and beat them in other qualities, e.g. recently Lego really seems to struggle with color consistency). Not always easy to find out what a certain set manufacturer uses (they often buy the bricks from someone else), but e. g. Gobricks (afaik used by Panlos) and whatever Bluebricks Pro uses are really good.
- KptMarchewa 4y agoMaybe the one part in thousand inconsistency isn't worth 10-100x the price.
- ceejayoz 4y agoMy kids got a few MEGA Bloks sets when they were younger, and 1/1000 is an incredibly generous description of their tolerances. Things just... didn't stick together consistently. They'd just fall apart.
