I hope you’re part of Lego Insiders(TM) so that you can preorder it for Pokemon Day*!*while supplies last, see scalpers for upscaled pricing and increased availability
>>58189812Thank Trump's tariffs.
>>58189823That is a factor but not the sole factor. No, Lego has been doing this shit years before Trump’s second term.
I got a friend who works in a chain toy store, he gets first pick of all this kind of shit and 20% employee discount. I'll just slip him a tenner to do the needful for me and skip the wankshit that's GOING to happen. Why don't you cry some more about it?
>>58189823Tell me you know nothing about lego without telling me you know nothing about lego. These prices are actually pretty standard anon. Most sets are about 10-12 cents per piece (licensed sets like these are usually on the upper end of that)
>>58189812Scalpers deserve to be executed
>>58189892"Because they'll buy it anyway"
how big is 6838 pieces, it's a stadium or something?
>>58189812>option to buy a massive amount of product, which magically costs more money than buying the smaller amount >“AAAAH IM BEING FORCED TO BUY THE LARGEST AVAILABLE OPTION”
>>58189999Depends on the size of the parts but that price is to be expected for a set with that many. Probably either a stadium like you said, or a diorama/map of a whole region (probably KANTOOOOOO)
>>58189812I just hope we get minifigs and exclusive molds
>>58190000Even the cheapest option costs as much as a Switch game. At least Mario has $15 sets in addition to the ones that cost hundreds of dollars..
>>58189812Are there going to be actual figures?
>>58190213>regular Lego prices are suddenly a problem when it’s a Pokémon setfucking normies
if this theme isn’t good then what’s the point of anything
>>58189812>Just Consoom
>>58189812it will probably be shitty buildable mons instead of actual sets with trainer and mons minifigs
Manifesting a full Kanto region in this style
>>58192160Buildable mons with trainer minifigs would be kino.
>>58192253Only works for large ones if you want to keep it minifigure scale. The little mons should be actual molds
