Actually, expense of sets may be getting to be a problem.

Even for adults? Do you feel that the Star Destroyer represents the upper
limit of what adult fans may be willing (or able) to pay in a single shot?

My experience with selling custom kits is that I do *better* with large,
expensive kits. My most expensive kit was the Hospital at $389 and 2400
pieces, and it moved much faster than the cheaper kits I've done. Dan
Siskind's custom kits go well above that range and he doesn't seem to have
much trouble selling them.

Now these are not mass market items, of course, but they certainly show that
the Star Destroyer's price point is not the upper limit.

No, but they say nothing about what the effective upper limit for a TLC set
would be. Other than some very one of a kind specials, TLC isn't going to be
interested in a trying to market a set with an audience of less than 100.
