Toys in general are pretty expensive nowadays. Especially toys made of decent to good plastic.

anything made outside of industrial shitholes like china and india is going to be expensive

because you're paying real people wages, rather than slave labour

For the same reason mommy drinks: because I touch myself at night.

>tfw seeing how much lego kits cost now
It's fuckin insane.

This. They're high-quality sculpts not made in a third-world shithole.

They still overcharge for them a bit, but they can afford to do that because they pretty much have the market cornered.

They cost so much, because you're willing to pay for them so much. It's like diamonds.

....Do I even want to know how badly the price hike has gotten lately for Lego kits?

You're going to have a hard time when you find out where a lot of GW models are manufactured then. Also, these boxes are almost pure profit and GW had continuously raised prices to try and reach an equalibrium between loss in volume and increase in revenue.

They cost so much because they have a captive audience of old men with lots of discretionary spending who spent years continuing to buy despite hugely above inflation price increases and a rapidly deteriorating set of game rules.

Basically old douchey 40k players have low standards.

have to pay reparations
