    They’re not all that one-off if they’re making thousands of them. And does that really justify an $850 price tag? We’re not talking bespoke here.

      Maybe I’m not the best person to ask because I don’t buy the big sets, I settled for a millennium falcon 75257 ($170). The $1000 kits aren’t worth it to me personally, I’d rather piece together MOC but I guess for someone that wants to flex or is a huge fan of a specific property, it’s available 🤷

      By one off I mean they introduce specific pieces for that set, which introduces more cost with a custom mold and run to create the brick. Parts you won’t find in any other set.
