More information than you require... about the price of LEGO.

Many of us AFOL's (Adult Fans of LEGO) wonder, what's up with the crazy prices of LEGO?

Reality Prose has our answer:

LEGO prices since  1960

Overall? LEGO is not "more expensive than ever before", it just feels like it:

>Now, the dream set is closer to the $400 range. It doesn't mean that LEGO doesn't make sub-$100 sets. They do, and more than ever. It just means that in comparison the $25 set looks a lot smaller than it did when the largest set was only $100. LEGO pricing has become a victim of its own expanding market.


Markdown is Awesome

I've been using Markdown for years now as my blogging format of choice. I've used it in Wordpress, Movable Type, Typepad, Jekyll & Octopress, and now Markbox.

I <heart> Markdown.

Thanks, John!
