Legos are timeless...I had the complete set of 'Space Series' when I was a kid in the late '70s...Now my 5 year old adores legos and our time together playing with them.
This particular model caught his eye as a innocent addition to his growing collection, so I thought I'd add it to my order of larger, and what I thought was 'higher priced' sets, most of which I obtained at "less than store prices".
Turns out, this little set that sold in stores for $[...] costs a freakin' fortune online. Between shipping and the ridiculously inflated prices I saw for this item, I paid nearly $13 for it. SAD. I added up the price of the individual pieces that it's made of on the Lego website---added up to less than $4. And I took it the Post Office to assess its shipping cost...yeah, $1.05. Someone needs to stop gouging on small items like this.
Also turns out it's not as RARE as one might think.
