No-one gives a shit about the humans, but overly-invested manchildren. Lego's aimed as the casual normal masses, about as far away from the autistic audience as possible ($650 for CHAAAAAARIZARD and two also-rans, $200 for a piggerchu), are you REALLY fucking surprised?

It's almost as if they want EVERYONE (over the age of 18 naturally) to want these sets, instead of picking something less overall humans know/care about like your childhood starters. It's also THE first official Lego sets, so you're retarded for expecting something other than Pikachu and the Kanto starters to lead off. Don't worry, Lego ain't gonna let the licence slip and TPC are going to profit filthy hard off this collab to the point they'll eventually get hubristic and shit out a starter set of your childhood. When your generation of humans turn 18 and are suddenly relevant to their market.

Lego's debuting a smart brick thing (lights, sensors and interactive noises/lights) and a leak said the pikachu set (which was the same set as the ppikachu lego tail tease last year). The pikachu's likely poseable ( for reference, I got the lego Optimus Prime for christmas from my sister, it's about 500 less pieces than the pika and transforms) and with the smart brick thing, it puts it ahead of megablocks (I'm a plastic brick snob, Lego's held the best quality of manufacture and build quality end result).

They were forced out of that market by chinesium-tier cheap shitty clones due to losing monopoly challenge suits. They pivoted to licenced model products to keep SOME kind of business going where only THEY were the sole option (like before when it was "buy lego or don't buy plastic building bricks"). Blame the cheap shitty clone manufacturers, they're to blame.

Quite possibly, it'll most likely have the standard "Pikachu!" sound clip too and maybe a few attack sounds. But honestly, I don't have a fucking clue what smart brick is, other than being bricks that offer interactivity in the build in various ways that Lego's introducing across its lines this year (I can imagine all the funky shit the Star Wars sets could offer).

Yeah, prices are keyed to be about 10c a brick or so (2k pieces for Pika = $200, 1.5k pieces for Optimus = $150, 6.8k pieces for Kanto starters = $650). But that's all licenced lego shit, from what I gather, I have one the technic F1 cars, it cost about €165 with 1650 pieces.

Oh I'm with you, there's a break point with Lego with me too. But I have size and space constraints to factor in on top (I'd buy the deluxe Death Star and Millennium Falcon otherwise in a heartbeat). The Kanto set's pricey but if I was more into them as a trio and had the room, I'd likely wind up getting it. Pikachu's the same, don't have "drop €200 on lego of a model of it" love for it as I would if it was a 2k Primarina model (which will be an instabuy the jiffy they ever announce one).

Who says I don't? But point-of-fact in this place is the vast majority of cunts crying about price of thing ARE in fact poor as fuck and mad Pokémon doesn't do povvo charity. SO leading off with "whaa expensive" and leaving it at that comes off as being another poor fucker crying over it. If he'd led with his further clarification first, I'd have understood his view (as I mentioned, I have price justification points with this shit too). But I'm not arsed with lego also-rans as part of a purchase (A lego 'Zard with its stand solo would have been class and 400 quid cheaper to boot) and my mama taught me to not talk about shit that didn't concern me. Knowing the price of lego currently in general also meant I didn't actually get arsey over the price of the thing like fuckers here are reacting, as if they're EXPECTED TO or MUST buy it.

The last build I completed was a chinesium brick set and it in no way matched the quality of the lego sets I'd put together during the last 9 moths of last year.

Because dropping the bases still leaves about 1.5 to 2k pieces a pokémon and sets that size are priced at $150-220. But 'Zard is historically the most popular Kanto starter and the other two's sales figures would be laughably poor in relation to 'Zard and TPC don't want the optics of two failure sets and one scalped to fuck, because everyone wants it, so mandated all three as one.

One problem with that: the fine print says you can only get this if you preorder the $650 set, and it’s only available for a limited number of preorders. And apparently the number was already reached, so this is unobtainable unless they rerelease it at some point. That’s what I read, at least.

>>
>>58830515
>one aimed at children

Because it was chinesium shit doing to the kid market what people are bitching about lego doing to the adult market in using the Pokémon IP to get shitheels buying their products. Only difference is Lego's brand worth allowing them to A) target an adult-only demo and B) charging accordingly for that privilege. (Again, 30th anniversary, shill shit at people who've been playing that fucking long). There's cheapo kiddy sets coming later in the year, for summer holiday times (when kids have time to invest time playing in lego fully for a while) but as that's still a while off and Pokémon/s unique launch foibles resulting in a February release enshrined as the day of celebration/significance as the day they reveal their plans for the year to the masses, they adjust their immediate, medium term and long term presentations accordingly (models in Feb for the boomers, lego sets for kids in the summer, game for everyone in Nov to start it all up again).
>>
>>58830421

TPC likely gave them the licence on a bid war, or flat-out refused Megablocks' renewal knowing Lego would pay them a filthy fucking fortune AND opening up to Lego meant opening up to the wider casual lego fag (I never once considered a megablocks pokémon set, I'm buying the Eevee and will likely consider more sets on a set-to-set basis (no room for the kanto set or pikachu, not that overly invested in pika or the kanto starters as a set (said it before, they'd make a filthy fucking fortune on 'Zard sets, overproduce badly on venustoise sets and TPC don't want the optics of "can't give kanto away" merch doing the rounds, especially if 'zard sets get scalped to high fuck and no cunt could get them for retail price.

at least back when i was a kid, mega had laughably bad quality control and pieces did not snap together well at all. manufacturing tolerance for a lego-like toy is very small.

I know people shit on these because of KANTOOOO pandering, but that's probably from a Pokémon fan PoV.
LEGO fans are another kind of manchildren and since most of them only really played Pokémon during Pokémania, Kanto was the safest choice by the company.
I heard that there won't be ONLY Kanto, but the Kanto ones will definitely sell more than the rest.
But honestly, who cares? Most Lego fans aren't even Pokémon fans themselves so of course they will consume the nostalgiaslop (this Pikachu doesn't even look good).

Why does it have to be pokemon models and not lego sets of pokemon buildings/locations?

lego are a bunch of cocksuckers nowadays, they have made nothing but the bare minimum above shit for about 15 years now. Actually a bit longer than that really, parts quality was turning to shit about 20 years ago. I'm glad I stopped buying anything lego after they canceled bionicle for the fucking second time.

I genuinely don't understand the appeal of these kinds of Lego kits. The simple basic block stuff, sure, that's fine. But this shit looks ugly and cheap as hell, why would anyone want to display these? Would rather buy a cheap japanese model kit for a fraction of the price and paint it or something.
And speaking of price, how is 600+ even remotely justified for a bunch of fucking plastic blocks? I know that high priced lego kits have been a thing for years and I have never understood how they get away with it.

Lego has created a hole for themselves. They're appealing to a very specific group: AFOLs (adult fans of lego, fairly old term) that SPECIFICALLY like lego for display, AND collect them for a variety of properties they also like. It's the same type of market as something like funko pops, not model kits. It's also extremely lucrative as these whales will literally mortgage their house to get their fixes of plastic bricks. It's also very dangerous, because it's not a renewing market, so there are fewer buyers overall as time goes on and people buy into the lego brand and system less and less. This process has been happening for maybe a decade or a decade and a half. Lego initially didn't have any real competitors, then stuff like knex and market trends nearly made lego go under, a handful of IPs like star wars and bionicle saved them, and over the next decade or so (from the late 90's to the early 2010's) they were solid but being chipped away at by stuff like mega blocks and later chinese ripoffs. In particular, early-to-mid 2010's lego began losing ground even in europe and america to (primarily) chinese competition. They managed to sue some of them in china (yes really) but they still don't have a stranglehold on the market like they used to, and part of it is that they began relying on that AFOL-who-likes-specific-properties-and-displays-them market more and more and more ever since they started expanding to third party IPs, like, again, star wars. But if you notice the vast majority of lego is from another property nowadays. They also suffer/"suffer" from a giant scalping problem, with those same AFOLs buying up desirable sets before any would-be parents can get them, entrenching lego further still. They're eating themselves right now and don't know it.
>>
It took Lego about 15+ years to perfect Star Wars sets, the first batches in the late 90s-early 00s were all dogshit and stupidly expensive

These first batch of sets are only for investors and scalpers, these things will be fought over and stored in bins to be sold 20+ years later for massive profits

lego would need to cure cancer to justify its absurd prices.
the problem isn't that poor people can't buy them and only normal people can, the problem is that normal people can't buy them either, and only rich (or really stupid) people can
