This is an example of unwise marketing/pricing on the Lego Co.s part
(IMHO). To make these more widely accessible, the sets should have been sold
per individual winner (just the pirate ship, just the Statue of Liberty,
etc.) to keep the price less, starting around $10 or $15

I have to agree. While Im delighted with the idea of the lego factory sets
and keen on getting the models that are available, Im just not liking the
prices. I dont make a habit of buying $40, $70, & $130 sets. $15-20 sets are
more my speed. Even if I ended up spending the same amount overall, something
in my head is agast at spending $130 on one set, but isnt at buying 13 $10
sets.

Im 80% sure (guesswise) that the reason is we dont have enough SKUs... This
seems to me a sign of internal breakage, LEGO needs to fix their systems so they
can have more SKUs without it costing them a lot more.
