Chances are, you had a set as a kid and may even have a few bricks lying around as an adult. It\u2019s a simple system that offers an almost limitless number of possibilities, but there\u2019s one downside: LEGO is pretty expensive.<\/p>\n<p>That popularity hasn\u2019t taken a dent, despite LEGO having a higher price point than similar systems, like Mattel\u2019s Mega Bloks. On average, retailers sell\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fi.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/PressKit_ArtOfTheBrick_Quirky_LEGO_Facts.pdf\">seven LEGO sets every second<\/a>\u00a0globally, and they sell enough bricks annually <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fi.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/PressKit_ArtOfTheBrick_Quirky_LEGO_Facts.pdf\">to circle the world five times<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>There is also some logic behind the price tag. While some of it is the profit margin, more goes into a LEGO brick than you think. Factors related to the brick itself, the environment, and the characters that wander around within your creations all play a part.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s take a detailed look at why your LEGO bricks can cost mega bucks.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Big_Brands_Come_at_a_Premium\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"autotoc_anchor_0\">Big Brands Come at a Premium<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-113849 size-full\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2022\/03\/eadf84d6.png\" alt=\"Photograph of the Lego shop window in the Trinity Shopping Centre, Leeds.

Being popular and having a good reputation allows companies to charge a premium. Just as a Nike or Levi\u2019s logo can make a piece of clothing more expensive, the word LEGO stamped onto a plastic brick will bump up the price.<\/p>\n<p>The LEGO brand has even expanded beyond the brick. Both <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=U-zxyUUzzrA\">video games<\/a> and <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=fZ_JOBCLF-I\">movies<\/a> featuring either original LEGO characters or established characters with a LEGO twist have done well in the charts and box offices over recent years, as have collaborations with fashion brands. Although the plots and gameplay features on offer were interesting enough on their own, the venture illustrates the LEGO brand\u2019s draw as a whole.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Quality_Comes_at_a_Price\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"autotoc_anchor_1\">Quality Comes at a Price<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>LEGO makes its products from several different types of plastic.

These tight tolerances ensure a good fit and a stable connection between two bricks. Although other brands design their products\u00a0to \u201cfit\u201d with LEGO, they probably won\u2019t connect as well due to the tighter tolerances and high standards LEGO sets.<\/p>\n<p>The plastic used may not be of the same quality either.
