Lego's competition has been improving their quality in the last few years, to a point where I'd argue some are on par or better (Cobi, Mould King, Xingbao).

At the same time Lego has started to produce in China like almost any other competitor and their quality has lapsed somewhat. Especially color accuracy has allegedly been shite, even in some VERY expensive sets.

Lego just isn't worth an almost 100% premium, imo. If you're in Europe check out Bluebrixx and Cobi. One makes licensed Star Trek sets, the other licensed cars like Škoda, Opel, Fiat, and others.

This is news to me, but I have been away from things for a while.
