Compared to the prices of LEGO Factory models, the price point for 10183 seems
reasonable to me. The train parts on Factory are quite expensive, causing some
of my train creations to average close to 15 cents per brick (and complete
trains to cost well over $200). No LEGO train set is cheap. Fortunately, this
one has some excellent parts that lend themselves to a wide variety of models
and uses - the sliding doors, train doors, train windows, and wheels. And one
gets 30 new ideas for train creations. For the trainhead, this set is
excellent. I'm certainly not complaining, and I admire the work of those who
designed this set. I look forward to getting it.
