    Things are getting so out of hand that kids can’t even play with toys anymore.

    I understand what you’re getting at, but these lines of Lego toys are specifically designed as being “for adults”. So the price tag is not for a children’s toy. Once Lego found out that they can charge a shitton more money to make sets for adults, they started doing so.

      Dude enough. $1000 for plastic bricks is fucking batshit. Idgaf who the target audience is, there’s no justifying a price like that for a toy.

        Did I say the price was reasonable lmao??? No. I just said it is marketed to adults, so it isn’t kids being “priced out” of a toy like the above user stated.

            Well you’re the one out here downvoting me when we are both on the same page so I don’t understand what your problem is.
