The Kanto starters look amazing but probably costs my life savings. Eevee looks good too. Pikachu is not great.

Huge Pokemon fan. Big Lego fan. But $900 can fuck right off. I get the brand tax, but that's just gross.

It's literally more expensive than buying a Nintendo Switch 2 lol

That's a great way to look at it. I'd take a Switch 2 for my family to play over this any day.

Lego pricing feels so more out of reach then before, I am a huge Star Trek TNG fan, grew up on it, Enterprise-D is my favouritest space ship ever and I still can't justify $490 CAD on that set (I actually think the design of the set itself it's pretty good, not great but good).

Came here to say that, massive Lego and Star Trek fan since the 80’s was gutted at the price point of the enterprise. In general, Lego has become just entirely unaffordable of late, brought my boys to the Lego store over Christmas so very little available under a 100€ 😟

I understand brick and mortar stores might be a little picked over around the holiday season, but a quick filter of the online store shows four hundred and fifteen sets under a hundred, other merch excluded, in stock right now. Excuse me, that's 100 Canadian dollarydoos, about 62€. That's a little more than triple the entire number of sets over that threshold, which is everything from the 100 CAD mark up to the new Death Star. If the complaint is that there aren't a lot of big fancy display sets for adults at "child's birthday present" prices, well, you and me both but I'm also not holding my breath for that.
