Off topic but for anyone that might have some of it, is the Minecraft lego worth what appears to be an exhorbitant price, even compared to the other themed sets? Youngest daughter is desperate for some but when Lego is about a close a real-world representation of Minecraft as possible, I don't want to shell out just to get the theme...

The retail prices on the new Minecraft sets (The Cave $20 / Crafting Box $50 / The Mine $110 / etc) are pretty closely in line with other branded sets. If you're looking at a marketplace price on an OOS item (e.g. crafting box at $85 right now on Amazon) it's easy to get a bad impression though. Looking briefly at $50 list Star Wars sets, the piece counts are actually generally lower. Compare the 518 piece minecraft set to the z-95 headhunter @ 373, Umbaran MHC @ 493, & Droid Gunship @ 439.
