Next in this thread, I read that some out there thinks Lego is a collectible.
No, it isn’t. It’s a toy. When I see a world city set on a shelf, I don’t
think, “Dang! I better get that and seal it away because it’ll be worth
somehting in 5 years.” Lego is a toy, what people do with it makes it
collectible. But I feel pretty confident when I say that the Lego company
doesn’t produce sets with collectability in mind. Don’t believe me? Read
the product description of the 10152 on Lego.com. Nothing there about
“limited edition.” Insider info made it collectible.
