$360 for a set with that many pieces is about right. The math in our house is about $.10/piece
Thanks for noticing the piece count. I think there's an argument to be made that $.10 each is steep for little molded pieces of plastic bought in fairly large lots, but it is at least comparable to other Lego sets.
Given that Lego is a privately owned Danish company that seems to be a pleasure to work for, I’m quite happy with the pricing compared to alternatives.
I think most of their bricks are made in China though and if it's compared to Cobi who make all their bricks in the EU they really are expensive. Also, from what I've heard their brick quality seems to be somewhat fluctuating.
This is how dnd takes over the mini market from Warhammer
And it's been mostly constant, when adjusted for inflation, which is nice
Only one? But the name implies at least 2 dungeons and 2 dragons.
Being LEGO, I suspect more than one kind of each will be possible.
If they make a set with a prismatic dragon, I'm getting that one for sure.
XD it's Legos, just take this set, combine with your existing pieces and create different ones
Would be a shame if someone uploaded 3D models of those piece so I could print it.
Yeah !!!
Ping me if someone does, please
Moichandizing!
